Abstract

Examples of the disclosure enable efficient processing of images. One or more features are extracted from a plurality of images. Based on the extracted features, the plurality of images are classified into a first set including a plurality of first images and a second set including a plurality of second images. One or more images of the plurality of first images are false positives. The plurality of first images and none of the plurality of second images are transmitted to a remote device. The remote device is configured to process one or more images including recognizing the extracted features, understanding the images, and/or generating one or more actionable items. Aspects of the disclosure facilitate conserving memory at a local device, reducing processor load or an amount of energy consumed at the local device, and/or reducing network bandwidth usage between the local device and the remote device.
