SYSTÈMES ET PROCÉDÉS D'ESTIMATION AUTOMATIQUE DE CARACTÉRISTIQUES D'OBJET À PARTIR D'IMAGES NUMÉRIQUES

摘要

Methods and systems for automatic estimation of object characteristics from a digital image are disclosed, including a method comprising sub-dividing into two or more segments a digital image comprising pixels and depicting an object of interest, wherein each segment comprises two or more pixels; assessing content depicted in one or more of the segments for a predetermined object characteristic using machine learning techniques comprising General Image Classification of the one or more segments using a convolutional neural network, wherein the General Image Classification comprises analyzing the segment as a whole and outputting a general classification for the segment as a whole as related to the one or more predetermined object characteristic; and determining a level of confidence of one or more of the segments having the one or more predetermined object characteristic based on the General Image Classification assessment.
