Process of Using Image Recognition

Image Recognition is a technology that uses computers to analyze and understand images to identify objects in different modes. You can obtain the inference results by accessing and calling APIs in real time. Image Recognition collects key data automatically and helps you build an intelligent business system that improves efficiency.

The following figure shows the procedure for using Image Recognition.
