  • Patent number: 12100032
    Abstract: To determine whether product information provided from a seller is consistent, provided is a learning device including at least one processor, the at least one processor being configured to: acquire first and second product information from a storage in which a plurality of pieces of product information each including a plurality of pieces of item data relating to a product are stored in advance; generate third product information in which at least one piece of item data included in the first product information is replaced with the corresponding at least one piece of item data of the second product information; and cause a machine learning model to learn the third product information as inconsistent product information, wherein the machine learning model is configured to determine, when a piece of product information is input, whether the piece of product information is consistent.

  • Patent number: 12046065
    Abstract: An information processing system configured to provide an electronic commerce platform. An information processing system is configured to acquire a descriptive text related to an item and at least one image related to the item; identify an object from the descriptive text; detect an object from each of the at least one image; and generate correspondence information based on correspondence between the object identified from the descriptive text and the object detected from the image.

  • Publication number: 20240112236
    Abstract: An information processing device used for an electronic commerce platform includes one or more processors and one or more memories. At least one of the memories stores item data related to items registered in the electronic commerce platform. The item data includes data sets. The data sets each include data fields registered for one of the items. The data fields each include item information related to the one of the items. The processor is configured to execute an indexing process for one or more pieces of item information to obtain an index used to compare the one or more pieces of item information with each other.

  • Publication number: 20230206483
    Abstract: Disclosed is an image processing apparatus including a receiving section that receives a captured image of a target object, an instruction section that gives a user an instruction on which direction to capture an image of the target object, an inferencing section that performs an inference of an imaging direction on the basis of the received captured image, and a verifying section that performs predetermined verification processing related to the target object on the basis of an imaging direction as the instructed direction and the imaging direction as a result of the inference.
