  • Publication number: 20240168993
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and embodiments related to analyzing the content of digital images. A computer extracts multiple sets of visual features, which can be keypoints, based on an image of a selected object. Each of the multiple sets of visual features is extracted by a different visual feature extractor. The computer further extracts a visual word count vector based on the image of the selected object. An image query is executed based on the extracted visual features and the extracted visual word count vector to identify one or more candidate template objects of which the selected object may be an instance. When multiple candidate template objects are identified, a matching algorithm compares the selected object with the candidate template objects to determine a particular candidate template of which the selected object is an instance.
