Reading Time: 4 minutes

In a world where staying updated with the latest trends in fashion is a must for every retailer, it is essential for them to be equipped with enough resources to make the digitization process faster. There needs to be a tool that would help brands manage, organize, and enhance their product catalog effectively with robust metadata. VueTag is one such tool.

VueTag is an automated fashion product tagging tool that uses image recognition to identify elements of a clothing item like, category, occasion, color, patterns, dress length, sleeve length etc and tags them accordingly and accurately. Adopting this solution will help brands deal with large catalog volumes and makes the task of labeling every product painless. VueTag’s six-step process of image input, catalog process, tagging engines, attribute extraction, quality assurance, and catalog output leads to effective value generation, automation and better data records for the retailer and their teams.

Introducing VueTag’s Bulk edit feature. Bulk edit allows users to perform a quality check or to provide corrections on the images which have been uploaded and tagged through this feature. It is available on all accounts from basic to pro.

Bulk edit help users derive value quickly to their business workflows, with blazing fast tagging and a Quality Assessment session of reviewing, helping the tool to improve the network.

Here are a few ways the feature automates catalog tagging holistically:

1. Quick feedback on the entire batch of images: Users can have a quick insight into how accurately the tags have been predicted and provide feedback on the incorrect ones.
2. Choose particular attributes to give feedback: Users can integrate the tags used for the products in their business, by using the bulk edit functionality to complete the process of tagging and review. They can browse through the tagged images filtered by a tag value and provide corrections wherever needed to the images.
3. Your review is your investment: In addition, to continue receiving feedback for the existing set of products, it routes feedback into the network for re-training and learning. Over time, network improvements will be showcased on the user’s dashboard.
   

Filtering By A Tag Value

In the bulk edit mode, users can filter images by a tag attribute to see the predicted values.

There’s a count of images which is visible on the right of the page and the images are sorted in increasing order of confidence score of the chosen filter (category, in this case).

• Clicking on Done now takes the user to the next step of the feedback process. The untouched images are accepted and the user can now submit the feedback for the corrected and accepted images in one flow. Click on “Confirm” to save the feedback for all images on the page.
• Each page shows up to 25 images under the filtered tag. On completing one set of images, the next set of images will be loaded, sorted by confidence score of Low – High.
