  • Publication number: 20230169109
    Abstract: A method including pre-screening second images from a database for a search result based on a first image and also based on respective substring distances between first binary substrings for the first image and respective second binary substrings for each of the second images. The method further can include after the pre-screening, determining a respective image distance for each third image of third images of the search result, wherein the respective image distance is between the first image and the each third image of the third images of the search result, and after determining the respective image distance for each third image of the third images of the search result, when the respective image distance for a particular one of the third images is greater than a predetermined image distance threshold, removing the particular one of the third images from the search result before the search result is displayed on a user device requesting the search result. Other embodiments are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20210241348
    Abstract: A method including a collection expanding model for expanding a collection of items. The method can include upon receiving a user request from a user via a user device through a network, retrieving a target collection of one or more collections from a database. The target collection can comprise collection items, one or more collection styles, and one or more collection colors. The method also can include determining candidate items for the target collection based at least in part on the collection items of the target collection. The candidate items can comprise one or more complementary candidate items or one or more substitute candidate items. The method further can include removing a first candidate item of the candidate items from the candidate items when at least a dominant style of the first candidate item is not included in the one or more collection styles and/or when at least a dominant color of the first candidate item is not included in the one or more collection colors.
