Claim 18:
19. A computing system, comprising:
one or more data storage devices that store a plurality of libraries of user-generated content, wherein each of the plurality of libraries comprises one or more cataloged embeddings respectively associated with one or more cataloged objects, wherein each cataloged embedding has been generated from one or more images of the associated cataloged object captured by one or more users, wherein one or more items of user-generated content are associated with each embedding; and
one or more computing devices that implement a user-generated content platform that:
receives imagery of an object from a client, wherein the imagery comprises a plurality of images captured by the user that depict the object;
uses an artificial neural network to generate an embedding for the object, wherein generating the embedding comprises:
respectively processing, using the artificial neural network, the plurality of images to respectively generate a plurality of embeddings for the object; and
aggregating the plurality of embeddings to generate the embedding associated with the object;

searches one or more of the plurality of libraries to identify a cataloged object that has a cataloged embedding that is closest to the embedding for the object; and
serves to the client at least one item of user-generated content associated with the identified cataloged object.
