A system includes a plurality of racks each storing packs of cigarettes, a display device associated with each rack and a master controller coupled to the racks and the display devices. A processor of the master controller is configured to receive a first indication that a scanner has scanned a first code associated with a first rack of the plurality of racks while the scanner is in a product checking mode. In response, the processor obtains from a memory a first rack number of the first rack and a first UPC associated with the rack number based on a planogram. The processor subsequently receives a second UPC scanned by the scanner of a pack actually stored in the first rack. Based on determining that the first and second UPCs do not match, the processor transmits an alert message indicating incorrect product placement in the first rack.

In response to detecting a triggering event corresponding to placement of a first item on a platform, a plurality of images of the first item are captured. For each image of the first item, a cropped image is generated including a bounding box around the first item depicted in the image. For each cropped image, a ratio is calculated between a portion of a total area within the bounding box occupied by the first item and the total area. If the ratio equals or exceeds a minimum threshold, an item identifier associated with the first item is identified based on the cropped image. On the other hand, if the ratio is below the threshold, the cropped image is discarded. A particular item identifier is selected from a set of cropped images that were not discarded.

A device detects a triggering event that corresponds to a placement of a first item on a platform. In response, the device captures an image of the first item and generates a first encoded vector for the image. The first encoded vector describes one or more attributes of the first item. The device determines a height of the first item. The device identifies one or more items in an encoded vector library that are associated with average heights within a threshold range from the determined height of the first item. The device compares the first encoded vector with a second encoded vector associated with a second item from among the one or more items. The device determines that the first encoded vector corresponds to the second encoded vector. In response, the device determines that the first item corresponds to the second item.

A system determines an interaction period during which a fuel dispensing operation is performed at a fuel dispensing terminal. The system determines a measured volume per unit time parameter associated with fuel dispensed from the fuel dispensing terminal by dividing the determined volume for fuel by the interaction period. The system compares the measured volume per unit time parameter with a threshold volume per unit time parameter. In response to determining that the measured volume per unit time parameter is less than the threshold volume per unit time parameter, the system retrieves a video feed that shows the fuel dispensing terminal during the fuel dispensing operation. The system creates a file for the fuel dispensing operation. The system stores the video feed in the created file.

A system for updating a training dataset of an item identification model determines that an item is not included in a training dataset. In response to determining that the item is not included in the training dataset, the system obtains an identifier of the item. The system detects a triggering event at a platform, where the triggering event corresponds to a user placing the item on a platform. The system captures images of the item. The system extracts a set of features associated with the item from the images. The system associates the item to the identifier and the set of features. The system adds a new entry to the training dataset, where the new entry represents the item labeled with the identifier and the set of features.

A system for identifying items based on aggregated metadata obtains images of an item. The system extracts a set of features from images of the item. The system identifies a first value of a first feature associated with a first image of the item. The system identifies a second value of the first feature associated with a second image of the item. The system aggregates the first value and the second value. The system associates the item to the aggregated first value and the second value, where the aggregated first value and the second value represent the first feature of the item. The system adds a new entry for each image of the item to a training dataset associated with an item identification model.

A plurality of images are captured of the first item and a plurality of cropped images are generated based on the images. For each cropped image, a first encoded vector is generated and compared to encoded vectors in an encoded vector library that are tagged as a front image. Based on the comparison, a second encoded vector is selected from the encoded vector library that most closely matches with the first encoded vector. An item identifier is identified that is associated with the second encoded vector. A particular item identifier is selected that is identified for a particular cropped image.

A device detects a triggering event that corresponds to a placement of a first item on a platform. In response, the device captures an image of the first item and generates a first encoded vector for the image. The first encoded vector describes one or more attributes of the first item. The device determines a height of the first item. The device identifies one or more items in an encoded vector library that are associated with average heights within a threshold range from the determined height of the first item. The device compares the first encoded vector with a second encoded vector associated with a second item from among the one or more items. The device determines that the first encoded vector corresponds to the second encoded vector. In response, the device determines that the first item corresponds to the second item.

A plurality of first images are captured of the first item and a plurality of cropped first images are generated based on the first images. A first item identifier associated with the first item is identified based on the cropped first images. A plurality of second images of the first item are captured and a plurality of cropped second images are generated from the second images. In response to determining that the cropped first images match with the cropped second images, the first item identifier is assigned to the first item depicted in the second images.

A plurality of images are captured of the first item and a plurality of cropped images are generated based on the first images. An item identifier is identified based on each cropped image, wherein each item identifier is associated with a numerical similarity value. Each cropped image is further tagged as a front image or a back image. A particular item identifier identified for a corresponding cropped image tagged as a front image is selected and associated with the first item. An indicator of the particular item identifier is displayed on a user interface device.
