Interactive product auditing with a mobile device
First Claim
1. An interactive product auditing method comprising:
- performing, with a processor of an auditing device, image recognition based on a first set of candidate patterns accessed by the auditing device to identify a first product depicted in a first region of interest of a segmented image;
presenting, via a display of the auditing device, a message requesting user input associated with a first grid of the first region of interest displayed on a display of the auditing device, the first grid including the first product;
selecting, with the processor of the auditing device, a second set of candidate patterns from a pattern database based on the user input and a group of products identified in the segmented image in a neighborhood of the first region of interest;
identifying a second product in a second region of interest of the segmented image based on the second set of candidate patterns; and
displaying, on the display of the auditing device, an image-based result for the first and second products identified in the first and second regions of interest.

Abstract
Interactive product auditing with a mobile device is described. Example methods disclosed herein include performing, with an auditing device, image recognition based on a first set of candidate patterns accessed by the auditing device to identify a first product in a first region of interest of a segmented image. The disclosed example methods also include prompting, with the auditing device, a user to enter input associated with a first grid of the first region of interest displayed on a display, the first grid including the first product. The disclosed example methods further include determining, with the auditing device, a second set of candidate patterns to use to identify a second product in a second region of interest of the segmented image, the second set of candidate patterns determined based on the user input and a group of products identified in a neighborhood of the first region of interest.

9. An auditing device comprising:
-
a product identifier to perform image recognition based on a first set of candidate patterns accessed by the auditing device to identify a first product depicted in a first region of interest of a segmented image; a display to present a message requesting user input associated with a first grid of the first region of interest displayed on the display, the first grid including the first product; an input/output interface to obtain the user input; a candidate pattern selector to; select a second set of candidate patterns from a pattern database based on the user input and a group of products identified in the segmented image in a neighborhood of the first region of interest, and identify a second product in a second region of interest of the segmented image based on the second set of candidate patterns; and a results analyzer to display, via the display, an image-based result for the first and second products identified in the first and second regions of interest. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A tangible computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause a processor of an auditing device to at least:
-
perform image recognition based on a first set of candidate patterns accessed by the auditing device to identify a first product depicted in a first region of interest of a segmented image; present a message requesting user input associated with a first grid of the first region of interest displayed on a display of the auditing device, the first grid including the first product; select a second set of candidate patterns from a pattern database based on the user input and a group of products identified in the segmented image in a neighborhood of the first region of interest; identify a second product in a second region of interest of the segmented image based on the second set of candidate patterns; and display, on the display of the auditing device, an image-based result for the first and second products identified in the first and second regions of interest. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
