Who wouldn\u2019t like to better handle a large library of photo memories according to visual topics, from specific objects to broad landscapes? <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image recognition is empowering the user experience of photo organization apps. Besides offering a photo storage, apps want to go a step further by giving people better search and discovery functions. They can do that with the automated image organization capabilities provided by machine learning. The image recognition API integrated in the apps categorizes images on the basis of identified patterns and groups them thematically. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/success-stories\/eden-case-study.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eden Photos<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, a Mac app for photo organization, as an example. It uses Imagga\u2019s image recognition to offer its users image tags, automatic keywording of photos, and auto-categorization on the basis of visual topics. Users can sync their photos\u2019 metadata on all devices and get keyword search in the native Photos app on their iPhones too. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Telecoms are another set of companies that integrate image recognition to improve their users\u2019 experience. They add value to their services by offering image organization and classification for photo libraries, which helps them attract and retain their customers. On the customer side, user experience is improved by allowing people to categorize and order their photo memories. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An illustration of this application is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/success-stories\/swisscom-case-study.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagga\u2019s solution for Swisscom<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The Swiss telecom needed an efficient and secure way to organize users\u2019 photos for its myCloud online service. With Imagga\u2019s image recognition API installed on premise, Swisscom now offers its customers a safe feature that organizes and categorizes their visual data. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#2.

Stock websites provide platforms where photographers and videomakers can sell their content. Contributors need a way to tag large amounts of visual material, which is time-consuming and tedious. In the same time, without proper keyword attribution, their content cannot be indexed &#8211; and thus cannot be discovered by buyers. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image recognition is thus crucial for stock websites. It\u2019s fueling billions of searches daily in stock websites. It provides the tools to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/success-stories\/unsplash-case-study.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">make visual content discoverable by users via search<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In the same time, image recognition is a huge relief for stock contributors. They get automatic keyword suggestions, which save them a ton of time and efforts. Image recognition can also give them creative ideas how to tag their content more successfully and comprehensively. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mystockphoto.org\/qhero-imagga-ai-keywording\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keywording software tools like Qhero have integrated with Imagga\u2019s image recognition AI<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to help stock contributors describe and tag their content with ease. Such tools analyze visual assets and propose relevant keywords. This reduces the time needed by photographers for processing of visual material. It makes manual keywording a thing of the past by suggesting the most appropriate words that describe an image. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#3.

Image Classification for Websites with Large Visual Databases<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A range of different businesses possess huge databases with visuals which is difficult to manage and make use of. Since they may not have an effective method to make sense of all the visual data, it might end up uncategorized and useless. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a visual database does not contain metadata about the images, categorizing it is a huge hassle. Classification of images through machine learning is a key solution for this. With image recognition, companies can easily organize and categorize their database because it allows for automatic classification of images in large quantities. This helps them monetize their visual content without investing countless hours for manual sorting and tagging. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best part about automated image classification is that it allows for custom training on top of the general image recognition API. This means that businesses can provide custom categories, which the AI is trained to recognize and use. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/success-stories\/tavisca-case-study.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our case study on Tavisca<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a good example of using custom classifiers in practice and automating the process of hotel photos categorization.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#5.

Whenever users upload a photo, Facebook is able to recognize objects and scenes in it before people enter a description. The computer vision can distinguish objects, facial expressions, food, natural landscapes and sports, among others. Besides tagging of people on photos, image recognition is used to translate visual content for blind users and to identify inappropriate or offensive images. \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image recognition is applied in other ways on social networks too. For example, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ailien.space\/smarthashapp\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SmartHash iOs app<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> employs Imagga\u2019s API to offer its users an easy tool for automatically creating hashtags for their photos. This allows people to successfully share their images online without the need to research and brainstorm hashtags. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo recognition has also been embraced by other image-centric services online. Google Photos and Apple\u2019s Photos app cluster photos on the basis of events and places, plus offer face detection. The application of image recognition significantly enhances users\u2019 experience. It helps them organize their photos in meaningful series. They can easily exchange, say, travel photos with friends who were a part of the same trip. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">#6. Interactive Marketing and Creative Campaigns<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The applications of image recognition are not limited to consumer services only. Advertising and marketing agencies are already exploring its potential for creative and interactive campaigns. It opens new opportunities for learning more about target audiences and serving them with impressive branded content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Social intelligence today is largely based on social listening. It involves following conversations on social media to learn more about prospects. But today, <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/marketingland.com\/future-social-intelligence-image-recognition-analysis-179902\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">this knowledge can be gathered from visuals shared online<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with much higher efficiency. In a sea of abundant and often irrelevant visual content, extracting useful information is possible only through machine learning &#8211; or \u2018visual listening.\u2019 For example, <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.business2community.com\/marketing\/5-things-didnt-know-image-recognition-matters-brands-01492900#XOuqkSoYOqcPTyDZ.97\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">image recognition can identify visual brand mentions and expression of emotion towards a brand<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, as well as logo and other brand data that would be otherwise undiscoverable. On the basis of collected information from analyzing images, marketers can better target their campaigns by using customization and personalization. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Besides valuable information about potential customers, image recognition can be used for crafting creative content that engages people and helps build their relationships with brands. To illustrate this: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/success-stories\/seedpost-case-study.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Imagga\u2019s image recognition API was used in a KIA marketing project<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to create an interactive campaign. By profiling of participants\u2019 image content online, each person is assigned to a different lifestyle group. Then they are matched to the right car that best fits their style among the 36 different car styles offered by KIA. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Celebrating the Power of Image Recognition <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Image recognition holds potential for a wide array of uses and industries, so these five examples are certainly not all-encompassing. They do illustrate, though, the diversity of applications that machine learning can offer to businesses that work with large libraries of visual content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>What is your business experience with image recognition?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/auto-tagging-demo\"><img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-917\" src=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/banner_demo_a-800x240.png\" alt=\"free image recognition with imagga\" width=\"800\" height=\"240\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/banner_demo_a-800x240.png 800w, https:\/\/imagga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/banner_demo_a-768x230.png 768w, https:\/\/imagga.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/banner_demo_a.png 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Editor\u2019s Note: This blog was originally published on March 23, 2017 and updated on May 21, 2019 for accuracy and comprehensiveness.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not long ago, artificial intelligence sounded like a science fiction prophecy of a tech future.
