Abstract
A produce recognition method which determines an optimal number of candidate identifications in a candidate identification list. The method includes the steps of obtaining produce data associated with a produce item, determining distances between the produce data and reference produce data, determining confidence values from the distances, determining first confidence values which are greater than a threshold confidence value, displaying candidate identifications associated with the first confidence values, and recording an operator choice of one of the candidate identifications.
