Abstract
An example apparatus includes a feature extractor to generate a first image descriptor based on a first image of a first retail product tag corresponding to a first category, the first image descriptor representative of one or more visual features of the first retail product tag; a feature descriptor generator to generate a feature descriptor corresponding to the first retail product tag by concatenating the first image descriptor and a first category signature corresponding to the first retailer category; and a classifier to generate a first probability value corresponding to a first type of promotional product tag and a second probability value corresponding to a second type of promotional product tag based on the feature descriptor; and determine whether the first retail product tag corresponds to the first type of promotional product tag or the second type of promotional product tag based on the first and second probability values.
