Abstract
The present disclosure provides a method performed at a computing device for recognizing an image's content. The method includes: extracting one or more features from an image to be recognized; comparing the features of the image with a set of image classifiers and obtaining a probability value for each image classifier; selecting, from the set of image classifiers, at least one image classifier as a target image classifier according to the probability value of the image classifier; determining a degree of similarity between each image and the image to be recognized, and selecting, from the target image classifier, multiple images as target images when their respective degrees of similarity with the image to be recognized exceed a predefined threshold; and labeling, the image to be recognized according to a class label corresponding to the target image classifier and entity labels corresponding to the target images in the target image classifier.
