Abstract
An apparatus and method to facilitate providing recommendations are disclosed herein. A networked system receives a query image, and performs image processing to extract a color histogram of an item depicted in the query image. The networked system identifies a dominant color of the item, whereby the dominant color is a color that is present on a most spatial area of the item relative to any other color of the item. The color histogram of the item is compared with a color histogram of an image of each of a plurality of available items, or the dominate color of the item is compared with a dominate color of the image of each of a plurality of available items. Based on the comparing, the networked system identifies item recommendations of the available items that closely match the item depicted in the query image, and the item recommendations are presented.
