Recognizing Thousands of Legal Entities through Instance-based Visual Classification
2014
This paper considers the problem of recognizing legal entities in visual contents in a similar way to named-entity recognizers for text documents. Whereas previous works were restricted to the recognition of a few tens of logotypes, we generalize the problem to the recognition of thousands of legal persons, each being modeled by a rich corporate identity automatically built from web images. We introduce a new geometrically-consistent instance-based classification method that is shown to outperform state-of-the-art techniques on several challenging datasets while being much more scalable. Further experiments performed on an automatic web crawl of 5,824 legal entities demonstrates the scalability of the approach.
