Abstract: Examples provide a system for generating image-based training data using progressive data curation. An anchor image of a selected item and historical receipts including the selected item generated during a dynamic receipt retrieval time period are obtained. Images of the carts including the selected item paired with the receipts are analyzed and cropped to isolate the selected item from each cart image. An embedding model generates embeddings representing the anchor image and the cropped images of the selected item. A similarity of the cropped image embeddings to the anchor image embedding is calculated using a similarity metric. The cropped image embeddings are ranked based on the calculated similarity to the anchor image. The images having the highest rank and greatest similarity to the anchor image are selected for inclusion in training data used to train computer vision models to detect and/or recognize the selected item in images of various objects.

Abstract: Examples provide a system and method for dynamically filtering candidate item identifiers (IDs) from a pool of item IDs in real-time for automatic labeling of images for use as training data used to train computer vision (CV) models. Images of carts are paired with item receipts. Candidate item IDs are extracted from the receipts. Item recognition inference results generated by CV models are used to pair images of individual items with item IDs identifying the item in each item image. As each candidate item ID is assigned to an item image, the item ID is dynamically filtered. Any candidate item IDs remaining after filtering are assigned to any item images failing to pair with an item ID based on the infer results. The results are presented for review and status update via a user interface device for faster and more accurate auto-labeling of training data for CV models.
