A system for categorizing seeds of plants into hybrid and non-hybrid categories. Seeds sorted according to the disclosed system are also disclosed.

In order for a supplier of industrial cables to reduce personnel costs and to guarantee customers a consistently high quality standard promptly and reliably, even for global data traffic, a method for identifying industrial cables, comprising the following steps, is proposed: a. automatic visual identification of multiple different components of an industrial cable, from at least one image file; b. analysis of the geometric relationships and/or functional connections between the components; and c. extraction of individual characteristics of the components from the image file using information obtained in step b. A combination of the visual analysis with existing knowledge, also with the possible option of adding trained knowledge, allows an extremely reliably-functioning method for recognizing industrial cables to be provided.

Disclosed are service providing apparatus and method for skin care based on image analysis by identifying a using cosmetic used by a user by analyzing an image obtained by photographing a cosmetic container with a camera based on deep learning, predicting the user's skin type by analyzing the using cosmetic based on deep learning, and then recommending a cosmetic suitable for the user's skin type. According to the present disclosure, it is possible to enhance user's convenience and satisfaction with skin care and reduce the time and cost required for selecting cosmetics suitable for the user's skin type by analyzing the cosmetics held by the user through artificial intelligence based on deep learning to estimate the user's skin type and then automatically selecting and providing cosmetics suitable for the user's skin type from among the cosmetics held by the user according to the estimated skin type.

A refrigerator appliance is provided including a cabinet defining a chilled chamber, a door rotatably hinged to the cabinet to provide selective access to the chilled chamber, and an inventory management system mounted within the chilled chamber for monitoring objects positioned within the chilled chamber. The inventory management system includes a camera assembly that obtains a plurality of images of food items as they are being added to or removed from the chilled chamber. A controller of the appliance analyzes the images using a machine learning image recognition process to identify an object and monitor the object between different images to determine a motion vector associated with its movement.

An image recognition device and method retrieve information on a marker. The marker encodes information identifying an asset by encoding the information in a binary pattern as recesses and non-recesses in the marker. The image recognition is performed by imaging the marker, mapping contrast in the image, identifying variations in the contrast, creating a mesh overlaying the image, identifying the present or absence of recesses from the mesh, and reading the binary pattern represented by the recesses in the marker.

In a display device 100, a photographing unit 12 is configured to photograph the surroundings of the display device 100, and the recognizing unit 16 is configured to recognize a clock 300 (a real object regarding a time or date) from a result of the photographing. When the recognizing unit 16 recognizes the clock 300, the schedule obtaining unit 11 is configured to obtain schedule information, and the display controller 17 is configured to display and output the schedule information in accordance with a position of the clock 300. In this case, since the display device 100 displays the schedule information in accordance with the position of the clock 300, the schedule information can be displayed in association with actual environment, and the schedule information can be outputted in a format that is easier to recognize the schedule information.

An information providing apparatus includes: an image obtaining unit that obtains a captured image having, captured therein, surroundings of a moving body; an area extracting unit that extracts an area of interest on which a line of sight is focused in the captured image; an object recognizing unit that recognizes an object included in the area of interest in the captured image; and an information providing unit that provides object information related to the object included in the area of interest.

The present disclosure provides an image processing method and device, an edge computing device, and a computer storage medium. The method includes: an identification result of each frame of game platform image in a multi-frame game platform image is determined, the identification result including at least information of a capital substitute; and in a case where a N-frame game platform image in the multi-frame game platform image is determined with a sliding window each time, the information of the capital substitute in a target frame of image is redetermined according to the identification result of the N-frame game platform image in the sliding window, where a sliding order of the sliding window is a frame order of the multi-frame game platform image, N is an integer greater than 1, and the target frame of image is one frame of image in the N-frame game platform image in the sliding window.
