Abstract: Various embodiments described herein utilize multiple levels of generative adversarial networks (GANs) to facilitate generation of digital images based on user-provided images. Some embodiments comprise a first generative adversarial network (GAN) and a second GAN coupled to the first GAN, where the first GAN includes an image generator and at least two discriminators, and the second GAN includes an image generator and at least one discriminator.

Abstract: A configured machine performs image matching and retrieval of natural images that may depict logos. The machine generates and uses color-localized spatial masks, which may be computationally less expensive than spatial verification techniques. Key points are detected within images that form a reference database of images. Local masks are defined by the machine around each key point based on the scale and orientation of the key point. To utilize color information presented in logo images, ordered color histograms may be extracted by the machine from locally masked regions of each image. A cascaded index may then be constructed for both visual descriptors and color histograms. For faster matching, the cascaded index maps the visual descriptors and color histograms to a list of relevant or similar images. This list may then be ranked to generate relevant matches for an input query image.

Abstract: A system receives image data associated with an item, where the image data comprising a view of the item from two or more angles; determines physical attributes of the item; generates a base model of the item; samples the base model to generate one or more sampled models, each of the one or more sampled models comprising a subset of the geometric data, the subset of the geometric data determined based on one or more device characteristics of one or more user devices that interface with the system; receives device characteristics of a user device associated with a request from the user device for the item; selects, based on the received device characteristics, a sampled model of the item; and transmits a data object comprising the selected sampled model to the user device to cause the user device to generate a three-dimensional rendering of the item.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for using adversarial learning for fine-grained image search. An image search system receives a search query that includes an input image depicting an object. The search system generates, using a generator, a vector representation of the object in a normalized view. The generator was trained based on a set of reference images of known objects in multiple views, and feedback data received from an evaluator that indicates performance of the generator at generating vector representations of the known objects in the normalized view. The evaluator including a discriminator sub-module, a normalizer sub-module, and a semantic embedding sub-module that generate the feedback data. The image search system identifies, based on the vector representation of the object, a set of other images depicting the object, and returns at least one of the other images in response to the search query.

Abstract: An apparatus and method to facilitate providing recommendations are disclosed herein. A networked system receives a query image, and performs image processing to extract a color histogram of an item depicted in the query image. The networked system identifies a dominant color of the item, whereby the dominant color is a color that is present on a most spatial area of the item relative to any other color of the item. The color histogram of the item is compared with a color histogram of an image of each of a plurality of available items, or the dominate color of the item is compared with a dominate color of the image of each of a plurality of available items. Based on the comparing, the networked system identifies item recommendations of the available items that closely match the item depicted in the query image, and the item recommendations are presented.
