Abstract
Counterfeit products such as drugs and vaccines as well as luxury items such as high-fashion handbags, watches, jewelry, garments, and cosmetics, represent significant direct losses of revenue to legitimate manufacturers and vendors, as well as indirect costs to societies at large. We present the world's first purely computer-vision-based system to combat such counterfeiting-one that does not require special security tags or other alterations to the products or modifications to supply chain tracking. Our deep neural network system shows high accuracy on branded garments from our first manufacturer tested (99.71% after 3.06% rejections) using images captured under natural, weakly controlled conditions, such as in retail stores, customs checkpoints, warehouses, and outdoors. Our system, suitably transfer trained on a small number of fake and genuine articles, should find application in additional product categories as well, for example fashion accessories, perfume boxes, medicines, and more.
