Clothing search in images
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for clothing search in images, comprising:
- characterizing, using a processor, clothing within a plurality of reference images;
characterizing, using a processor, clothing within a query image;
identifying, using a processor, a first subset of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar color features as clothing of the query image; and
selecting, using a processor, a second subset derived from the identified first subset of the plurality of reference images, the second subset including those plurality of reference images having clothing with similar predefined clothing attributes other than color as clothing of the query image.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media with executable instructions, and/or logic are provided for clothing search in images. An example method of clothing search in images can include characterizing clothing within a plurality of reference images using a processor, and characterizing clothing within a query image using a processor. A number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar color features as clothing of the query image is identified using a processor. A subset of the identified number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with predefined non-color attributes as clothing of the query image are selected using a processor.

13. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon, the computer-executable instructions comprising instructions that, if executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
-
receive a query image; construct a customized color codebook based on a plurality of reference images; characterize clothing within the plurality of reference images for predefined clothing attributes other than color and one or more color features associated with the constructed customized color codebook; characterize clothing within the query image for predefined clothing attributes other than color and one or more color features associated with the constructed customized color codebook; identify a number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar color features as clothing of the query image; and select a subset of the identified number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar predefined clothing attributes other than color as clothing of the query image. - View Dependent Claims (14)

15. A computing system, comprising:
a non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions stored thereon; and a processor coupled to the non-transitory computer-readable medium, wherein the processor executes the instructions to; construct a customized color codebook based on a plurality of reference images; characterize clothing within the plurality of reference images; characterize clothing within a query image; identify a number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar color features as clothing of the query image; and select a subset of the identified number of the plurality of reference images having clothing with similar predefined clothing attributes other than color as clothing of the query image, wherein the processor executes the instructions to characterize clothing includes instructions to; detect a body feature in an image; extract a clothing region relative to the body feature; remove skin-colored regions from the clothing region; classify a number of predefined clothing attributes other than color of the extracted clothing region; and determine color features of the extracted clothing region.
