Abstract
Systems and methods are described herein for identifying and filtering redundant database entries associated with a visual search system. An example of a method of managing a database associated with a mobile device described herein includes identifying a captured image; obtaining an external database record from an external database corresponding to an object identified from the captured image; comparing the external database record to a locally stored database record; and locally discarding one of the external database record or the locally stored database record if the comparing indicates overlap between the external database record and the locally stored database record.
