Abstract
This invention provides a processing apparatus (10) including a container identification score computation unit (11) that computes an identification score of a container for a product, based on an image to be processed containing the product, a product identification score computation unit (12) that computes an identification score of the product, based on the image to be processed, and a first identification unit (13) that decides identification information of the product, based on the computed identification score of the container and the computed identification score of the product.
Claims3
A processing apparatus comprising:
- at least one memory configured to store one or more instructions;
- and
- at least one processor configured to execute the one or more instructions to:
- compute an identification score of a container of a product, based on an image of the product, the product including an object contained in the container;
- compute an identification score of the product, based on the image;
- determine identification information of the product, based on the computed identification score of the container and the computed identification score of the product;
- identify a plurality of other products similar in appearance to the product, based on the determined identification information of the product;
- compute a degree of similarity in appearance of each of the plurality of other products with the product;
- and
- suggest a container for each of the plurality of other products based on the degree of similarity in appearance with the product, such that a first product that is similar in appearance to a second product has a first container suggested therefor that is different than a second container suggested for the second product.
A processing method executed by a computer comprising:
- computing an identification score of a container of a product, based on an image of the product, the product including an object contained in the container;
- computing an identification score of the product, based on the image;
- determining identification information of the product, based on the computed identification score of the container and the computed identification score of the product;
- identifying a plurality of other products similar in appearance to the product, based on the determined identification information of the product;
- computing a degree of similarity in appearance of each of the plurality of other products with the product;
- and
- suggesting a container for each of the plurality of other products based on the degree of similarity in appearance with the product, such that a first product that is similar in appearance to a second product has a first container suggested therefor that is different than a second container suggested for the second product.
