Abstract

There are provided a system and method of vehicle image comparison, the method including: obtaining an input image capturing at least part of a vehicle; segmenting the input image into one or more input segments corresponding to one or more mechanical components; retrieving a set of reference images, thereby obtaining a respective set of corresponding reference segments for each input segment; and generating at least one difference map corresponding to at least one input segment, comprising, for each input segment: comparing the input segment with each corresponding reference segment thereof using a comparison model, giving rise to a set of difference map candidates each indicating probability of presence of DOI between the given input segment and the corresponding reference segment; and providing a difference map corresponding to the given input segment according to probability of each difference map candidate in the set of difference map candidates.
