Application ID: 14907904

Base Claim:
1. A computer implemented recognition process of an object in a query image, comprising: performing a training step that comprises: merging a plurality of background images with an object tag to provide a set of training images, wherein the plurality of background images comprises real images received from a user or/and artificial images like website images downloaded by an interconnected computer network, and wherein each training image comprising a plurality of pixels; determining for each training image of said set a plurality of first descriptors, each first descriptor being a vector that represents pixel properties in a corresponding subregion of the associated training image; and selecting among the first descriptors a group of exemplar descriptors describing said set of training images, wherein selecting the exemplary descriptors comprises determining the first descriptors having a number of repetitions in the set of training images higher than a certain value; the method further comprises performing a query step, the query step comprising: receiving the query image and defining a plurality of second descriptors, the second descriptors being vectors describing pixel properties in corresponding subregions of the query image; determining visual similarity coefficients based on a comparison between each one of said second descriptors of the query image and each one of said exemplar descriptors; determining whether second descriptors of the query image match corresponding exemplar descriptors based on the determined visual similarity coefficients; and recognizing the object in the query image based on the determined matches.

Claim 7:
7. The process according to claim 1 , wherein, for each one of said second descriptors, the query step comprises: determining a list where said exemplar descriptors are arranged for progressive visual similarity coefficient; determining the exemplary descriptors matched by corresponding second descriptors of the query image from a selection of the exemplar descriptors in said list based on said visual similarity coefficient; recognizing said object in said query image based on the selection of the exemplar descriptors in the list.
