Methods and systems for image recognition

摘要

A method and system for image recognition are disclosed. The method includes the steps of acquiring image information for a target object to be recognized at a terminal device; transferring said image information to a server, wherein the server applies feature recognition techniques to the image information, and returns a recognition result; and presenting the recognition result returned by the server at the terminal device. The method and system consistent with the present disclosure may simplify user operations and improve the efficiency and intelligence level of an image recognition system.

1. A method for image recognition implemented on a terminal device having an image capturing application, comprising:
acquiring image information for a target object to be recognized at the terminal device; transferring said image information to a server wherein the server applies feature recognition techniques to the image information, and returns a recognition result; and presenting the recognition result returned by the server on the terminal device; wherein the server applying feature recognition techniques to the image information further comprises:
extracting feature information from the image information, including expressing the feature information by a first eigenvector;comparing the feature information to a preset object feature template, wherein the preset object feature template is expressed by a second eigenvector;when the first eigenvector and the second eigenvector have same size and a number percentage of same eigenvalues in the first eigenvector and the second eigenvector reaches a matching threshold, determining that the feature information matches the preset object feature template; andidentifying the recognition result when the feature information matches the preset object feature template, wherein the recognition result comprises profile information and address information corresponding to an object identified by the preset object feature template.
