Abstract
Multiple images of multiple items are captured of a transaction area during a checkout. The Red-Green-Blue (RGB) data associated with each item image patch is collected across the images and provided as input by a Machine-Learning Model (MLM), which returns an item code for the item. When the given MLM is unable to satisfactorily predict an item code for a given set of image patches, the patches associated with the images are presented to an operator of a checkout and the operator is asked to scan an item barcode for that item. The patches are labeled within the images with the item code and additional images of the item are captured and labeled with the item code when the barcode is scanned by the operator. The labeled images are used in a subsequent training session with the MLM to improve its item recognition accuracy for the item.
