Composite image detection
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A device comprising:
- a computer-readable memory storing specific computer-executable instructions; and
a processor in communication with the computer-readable memory, wherein the processor executes the specific computer-executable instructions to cause the device to at least;
receive a feature signature for a known composite image;
receive a prior authorization determination for the known composite image, the prior authorization determination indicating that the known composite image may be transmitted in response to a search request received from another electronic device by a catalog system;
receive an input image to be authorized for transmission via the catalog system, the input image comprising a background image region, an underlying image region, and an overlaid image region being overlaid upon at least a portion of the underlying image region;
remove the background image region from the input image;
generate an input image feature signature indicative of a shape of an item shown in the underlying image region;
determine that the input image feature signature matches the feature signature; and
upon determining that the input feature signature matches the feature signature, authorize the input image for transmission via the catalog system based at least in part on the prior authorization determination for the known composite image.

Abstract
Features are disclosed for processing composite images. Composite images may be received that include a common item such as a t-shirt with different graphics overlaid on the item. Features for detecting such composite images by comparing shape and color features of an uploaded image to previously detected composite images are described. Composite images including the common item may be grouped into clusters. The clustered images can then be processed as a group such as to separate the graphics from the underlying image and to make authorization determinations for inclusion in an online catalog system.

11. A computer-implemented method comprising:
under control of a computing device executing specific computer-executable instructions, receiving a feature signature for a known composite image; receiving a prior authorization determination for the known composite image, the prior authorization determination indicating that the known composite image may be transmitted in response to a search request received from another electronic device by a catalog system; receiving an input image to be authorized for transmission via the catalog system, the input image comprising an overlaid image region, an underlying image region showing an item upon which the overlaid image region is placed, and a background image region; removing the background image region from the input image; generating an input image feature signature indicative of a shape of the item shown in the underlying image region; determining that the input image feature signature matches the feature signature; and upon determining that the input feature signature matches the feature signature, authorizing the input image for transmission via the catalog system based at least in part on the prior authorization determination for the known composite image. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
