Abstract
A method of identifying a background type in a photograph includes extracting a background image from a photograph, feeding the background image into a first convolution neural network to obtain a first decision, extracting color features in the background image, transforming the color features into a two-dimensional color feature matrix, feeding the two-dimensional color feature matrix into a second convolution neural network to obtain a second decision by the one or more computer processors, extracting texture features in the background image, transforming the texture features into a two-dimensional texture feature matrix image by the one or more computer processors, feeding the two-dimensional texture feature matrix into a third convolution neural network to obtain a third decision, computing a hybrid decision based on the first decision, the second decision, and the third decision, and identifying a background type in the background image based on the hybrid decision.
