Determining a social group to which customers belong from appearance and using artificial intelligence, machine learning, and computer vision, for estimating customer preferences and intent, and for improving customer services
An artificial intelligence (AI) system for determining to which social group a person belongs. The AI system includes a computer system and a computer program product which, when running on the computer system, is to: retrieve at least one image of the person belonging to a social group; labels the person, resulting in a labeled person; retrieve at least one image part showing appearance of the labeled person; subject said at least one image part to at least one trained machine learning model defined in the computer program product, the machine learning model including at least a part that is trained on a test set of annotated images which are annotated with respect to categories that correlate to social group, and determine from the at least one trained machine learning model a social group category to which the labeled person belongs.
1. An artificial intelligence (AI) system for determining to which social group a person belongs, said AI system comprising:
a computer system; and
a computer program product which, when running on said computer system:
retrieves at least one image of said person belonging to a social group;
labels said person in said at least one image, resulting in a labeled person;
retrieves at least one image part showing appearance of said labeled person;
subjects said at least one image part to at least one trained machine learning model defined in said computer program product, said at least one trained machine learning model comprising:
at least a part that is trained to detect key points on the body of said labeled person;
a part that is trained to segment said body into relevant body parts;
a part that is trained to detect clothing on the segmented said relevant body parts, and
at least a part that is trained on a test set of annotated images which are annotated with respect to said detected clothing that correlate to a social group, and
determines from said at least one trained machine learning model a social group category to which the labeled person belongs.
2. The AI system of claim 1 , wherein said clothing comprises accessories, at least one of said accessories selected from clothes, shoes, glasses, jewelry, and watches.
3. The AI system of claim 1 , wherein said at least one trained machine learning model also comprises a part that is trained to determine a head in said relevant body parts, and detects at least one selected from makeup, glasses, jewelry, dental brace, and hairstyle of a person.
4. The AI system according to claim 1 , wherein said AI system retrieves at least one image comprising a series of persons, and for said series of persons determines said social group category.
5. The AI system of claim 4 , further comprising a statistical analyzer for applying a statistical analysis on said social group categories of said series of persons for determining demographics of said series of persons.
6. The AI system of claim 1 , wherein said AI system determines said social group categories real-time.
7. A robot system comprising:
a humanoid robot for interacting with human beings;
an artificial intelligence (AI) system operatively connected to the humanoid robot, and which is for determining to which social group a person belongs, said AI system including:
a computer system; and
a computer program product which, when running on said computer system:
retrieves at least one image of said person belonging to a social group;
labels said person in said at least one image, resulting in a labeled person;
retrieves at least one image part showing appearance of said labeled person;
subjects said at least one image part to at least one trained machine learning model defined in said computer program product, said at least one trained machine learning model comprising:
at least a part that is trained to detect key points on the body of said labeled person;
a part that is trained to segment said body into relevant body parts;
a part that is trained to detect clothing on the segmented said relevant body parts, and
at least a part that is trained on a test set of annotated images which are annotated with respect to said detected clothing that correlate to a social group, and
determines from said at least one trained machine learning model a social group category to which the labeled person belongs.
8. A camera, comprising:
an artificial intelligence (AI) system for determining to which social group a person belongs, said AI system including:
a computer system; and
a computer program product which, when running on said computer system:
retrieves at least one image of said person belonging to a social group;
labels said person in said at least one image, resulting in a labeled person;
retrieves at least one image part showing appearance of said labeled person;
subjects said at least one image part to at least one trained machine learning model defined in said computer program product, said at least one trained machine learning model comprising:
at least a part that is trained to detect key points on the body of said labeled person;
a part that is trained to segment said body into relevant body parts;
a part that is trained to detect clothing on the segmented said relevant body parts, and
at least a part that is trained on a test set of annotated images which are annotated with respect to said detected clothing that correlate to a social group, and
determines from said at least one trained machine learning model a social group category to which the labeled person belongs.
9. The camera of claim 8 , further comprising a housing to house said AI system.
