Abstract

Provided are a method and apparatus for identifying a product. The method includes: acquiring an image of the product; performing multilevel detection on the image to determine a label region of the product, specifically, an image region corresponding to a previous level of detection is greater than an image region corresponding to a following level of detection; and identifying information in the label region to determine information of the product. A product can be identified automatically by acquiring the image of the product and performing multilevel detection on the image, thereby efficiency is improved, a large number of products can be handled, and cost is reduced.
