Visual Recognition uses machine learning to identify objects, scenes, events, emotions, and more in your visual content and apply "Concepts" to your Tiles.

Concepts are similar to Tags, however, they are not identical. Concepts are text-only labels, whereas Tags can contain additional metadata such as custom URLs, descriptions, etc.

Concepts appear on the Tile under the Language, Sentiment, and Location data.

Applying Concepts to Tiles

There are several ways Concepts can be applied to Tiles.

Via Terms

You can choose to apply Visual Recognition to all content that is aggregated through a specific Term.

To do this navigate to Settings > Visual Recognition > Automatically apply to selected terms and select your Term(s) from the drop-down list.

You can also choose to apply Visual Recognition to a Term when creating or editing it.

Via Tiles

You can apply Visual Recognition to Tiles in Manage Content.

Navigate to:

  1. Curate > Manage Content

  2. Search for your desired post(s)From the overflow menu select Apply Visual Recognition

After a few seconds, Concepts will be applied to your Tile.
