Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed for processing an image using visual and textual information. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to detect regions of interest corresponding to a product promotion of an input digital leaflet, extract textual features from the product promotion by applying an optical character recognition (OCR) algorithm to the product promotion and associating output text data with corresponding ones of the regions of interest, determine a search attribute corresponding to the product promotion, generate a first dataset of candidate products corresponding to the product in the product promotion by comparing the search attribute against a second dataset of products, and select a product from the first dataset of candidate products to associate with the product promotion, the product selected based on a match determination.
