Abstract
A store includes first and second racks of shelving that are respectively viewed by first and second cameras. A computer system, including one or more processors and memory, defines a first convolutional neural network (CNN) trained to recognize a first set of items stocked on the first rack of shelving, and a second CNN trained to recognize a second set of items stocked on the second rack of shelving. (The first camera provides imagery for recognition by the first CNN, and the second camera provides imagery for recognition by the second CNN.) In such arrangement, the second neural network is trained to recognize a particular item that the first neural network is not trained to recognize, and the first neural network is trained to recognize a certain item that the second neural network is not trained to recognize. Many other features and arrangements are also detailed.
