Abstract: A method and system of matching a first product with a second product. The method including converting first product metadata with image metadata and textual data to a first product feature vector. Further, determining a distance between the first product feature vector and a second product feature vector of the second product, the second product feature vector stored in a database of product feature vectors. The distance is compared to a threshold distance, and if the distance is within the threshold distance, validating a match between the first product feature vector and the second product feature vector. The validating further includes geometrically verifying the image metadata of the first product corresponds to image metadata of the second product.
