New Cat2Real framework enhances product recognition by bridging catalog-to-real gap

Researchers have developed a new multi-stage contrastive learning framework called Cat2Real to improve scalable product recognition. This method addresses the challenge of matching real-world, in-store product images with extensive corporate catalogs by reformulating the task as an embedding-based cross-domain retrieval problem. Cat2Real systematically exploits item-level and image-level similarities to drive targeted hard negative mining, enabling seamless scaling to unseen products and categories with outstanding zero-shot generalization performance.
