AI services and integrations in OMN are constantly evolving. Not all artificial intelligence functions that OMN supports are part of the accelerator standard.

You can find an overview of all available OMN AI services at: AI-Services

If you are looking for more general information about AI functions with Online Media Net, please visit our website at: Products - apollon.

Requirements for using AI services

The prerequisite for using the individual services is a corresponding one-time licensing of the OMN AI connector and the deposit of a valid API key for the respective service.

In most cases, an API key for a service is also linked to a subscription for the service from the respective service provider, since many AI services are subject to a fee.

Example:

If you would like to use ChatGPT and already have an API key for professional use (and thus a subscription), this can be stored in OMN via configuration. Alternatively, you can also book the ChatGPT service directly through apollon. In this case, usage-based billing is then carried out directly through apollon.

If you have specific questions about licensing, please contact your personal contact person.

AI Image Services

In OMN Accelerator you will find AI services that can create or edit images under the AI ​​Image function group.

The following AI image functions are currently available in OMN Accelerator:

You can find an explanation of which use cases the individual AI functions cover in the AI service overview.

Using Remove Background

With this service, based on Remove.BG, you can automatically remove pixel images in OMN with a single click.

AI Image - Remove BG

User Guide Work with KI Services toolbar remove bg

You can find the function under AI Image >> AI remove background

The function can be executed on one or more selected images in the DAM module or from the search. To execute the function, a parameterization is possible in which the resolution or quality of the resulting image is calculated.

The following settings are possible:

  • "Preview": Resize the image to 0.25 megapixels (e.g. 625×400 pixels) - 0.25 credits per image

  • "HD": Use original image resolution, up to 4 megapixels (e.g. 2000×2000) - 1 credit per image

  • "Full": Use original resolution, up to 25 megapixels (e.g. 6250×4000) for ZIP or JPG formats, or up to 10 megapixels (e.g. 4000×2500) for PNG - 1 credit per image

  • "50MP": Use original resolution, up to 50 megapixels (e.g. 8000×6250) for ZIP or JPG formats, or up to 10 megapixels (e.g. 4000×2500) for PNG - 1 credit per image

When cutting out a copy of the original image, the background is removed and made transparent. The result is a cut-out file in PNG format.

Using AI to create clippings

With this service, you can automatically create a Photoshop path for pixel images in OMN with a single click, which cuts out the object.

AI Image - Remove BG

User Guide KI Services create clipping function

You can find the function under AI Image >> AI create clipping

The function can be executed on one or more selected images in the DAM module or from the search. No further parameterization is required to execute the function.

When cutting out with a Photoshop path, a copy of the original image is created and the cutout is created on it in the form of a path. You can edit or modify this path with Adobe Photoshop, for example. The easiest way to do this is with our OMN CI HUB Connector, which you can use to open images saved in OMN directly in Photoshop.

The result is a file in JPG format cut out using a Photoshop path.

Using AI Image (Ghost Mannequin)

In the fashion world, a ghost mannequin (also called a neck mannequin, invisible mannequin or hollow man) is the name for an image editing technique that creates the illusion of a human body filling out the clothing.

The Ghost Mannequin effect is a proven powerful post-processing technique for clothing photos. This technique involves editing photos inside and out to remove all traces of the model or mannequin and obtaining a photo that perfectly reflects the fit of your product in 3D. Flat photos of clothing can put off shoppers as they don’t show the full size of your products. 3D silhouettes can speed up your sales as your customers can imagine themselves in the clothing and have more confidence in their purchase.

With this service, you can merge two related images, namely the product photo that was photographed on the body and the image for the inlay (also called a back mirror), into one image - the Ghost Mannequin.

AI Image - Ghost

User Guide KI Services ghost function

You can find the function under AI image >> AI image (Ghost Mannequin)

The correct order is important for the function to be executed (product photo on the left, inlay on the right).

The following AI image functions are currently available in OMN Accelerator:

You can find an explanation of which use cases the individual AI functions cover in the AI service overview.

Using AI Image Tagging

To effectively manage, search and use images in the DAM module, it is useful to tag them with descriptive text elements called keywords, labels, tags or key words. This process is called image tagging or indexing.

Image tagging can be done manually or automatically in OMN. Manual image tagging requires a lot of time and effort from humans who have to analyze the images and select the appropriate keywords. Automatic image tagging, on the other hand, uses artificial intelligence (AI) technology to recognize and classify images. AI-based image tagging uses algorithms that learn from large amounts of data what images look like and what they mean. These algorithms can identify various features of an image, such as colors, shapes, objects, people, scenes or emotions. Based on these features, they can then generate relevant keywords that describe the image. AI-based image tagging has many advantages over manual image tagging. On the one hand, it is faster and more efficient because it can process thousands of images in a short time. On the other hand, it is more accurate and consistent because it applies objective criteria and avoids human errors. It is also more flexible and adaptable because it can take different languages, domains and requirements into account.

In order for automatic image recognition to work, it needs a model that is trained for specific recognition tasks.

A distinction is made between pre-built models and custom models:

  • A prebuilt model in image recognition is a pre-built model that has been trained on a large set of images to recognize different objects or features. A prebuilt model can be used for different applications without the need to adapt or retrain it. A prebuilt model has the advantage of being quick and easy to implement, but the disadvantage that it may not be suitable for specific requirements or domains.

  • A custom model in image recognition is a customized model that has been trained on a smaller set of images to recognize specific objects or features. A custom model can be used for special applications that require high accuracy or special recognition logic. A custom model has the advantage of being more flexible and customizable, but the disadvantage that it requires more time and resources to build and train.

By default, OMN Accelerator only uses pre-built models from various services, but if required, it also allows the creation and integration of your own, customer-specific custom models that can be created as part of a project.

If you want to tag images in OMN, you can use the function directly in the DAM module or directly from the search.

User Guide KI Services AI Imagetagging function

You can find the function under AI tagging >> AI image tagging

The function can also be executed on one or several assets at once.

When executing the function, you must specify a few parameters so that the image tagging can be carried out.

User Guide KI Services modal image tagging
Figure 15. AI image tagging with different services

You can take the parameters for image tagging by the AI service from the following table:

Parameter name Description

AI provider

  • Selection of the AI provider through which the image recognition should be carried out

  • The following providers can be used as standard

    • Google

    • Clarifai

    • Microsoft

    • Imagga

    • Ximiliar

  • In OMN Accelerator, the standard models (prebuild) of the respective providers are available, which are trained for broad recognition.

  • it is generally possible to train your own models and integrate them as a function in OMN

Recognition threshold

  • Specifies the recognition threshold, from which hit probability the results in the form of keywords should be imported into OMN.

  • For example, the value 0.9 means that only keywords with a recognition accuracy of 90% are imported

Target attribute

  • Specifies the target attribute in the DAM module into which the generated keywords should be imported.

  • In OMN Accelerator there is a standard attribute for each provider, for example AI Tags Google, into which the keywords can be imported

Image format

  • Here you can specify whether the original image file should be sent to the image recognition or just a preview. The background is that image recognition offers greater accuracy for high-resolution images, but on the other hand also has size limitations

Language

  • Here you define in which language you would like to receive the keywords.

  • Since many image recognitions are designed in standard English, these can be automatically translated in OMN using DeepL - for example, the provider Google would translate the recognized keywords if you have selected German as the language

  • The prerequisite for automatic translation is the deposit of a valid DeepL license in the form of an API key

Generating keywords can take some time, especially if they have to be translated afterwards.

You can see the result of the image recognition in the details area under "Keywords & Tagging" in the respective field. You can also delete automatically generated tags or add them manually.

Using ChatGPT for prompt-based text generation

Text generation with ChatGPT is a process where an artificial intelligence algorithm called ChatGPT generates natural language texts based on a prompt. A prompt is a text that contains a question, instruction, or other type of request addressed to ChatGPT. For example, a prompt might be “Write a short article about the benefits of solar energy.” ChatGPT would then try to generate appropriate text that matches the prompt.

ChatGPT is based on a language model that has learned how language works and how to use it from vast amounts of text on the Internet. ChatGPT can recognize and apply patterns and rules in language to generate coherent and fluent texts. ChatGPT can also understand the context and purpose of the prompt and try to use an appropriate tone and style. ChatGPT can generate various types of texts, such as stories, poems, essays, news articles, product descriptions, reviews, and much more.

However, ChatGPT is not perfect and has some limitations. Firstly, ChatGPT cannot always verify the facts or guarantee the quality of the information it generates. ChatGPT can sometimes make false or misleading statements or mix or twist information from different sources. Secondly, ChatGPT cannot always be creative or original or meet the user’s expectations or wishes. ChatGPT can sometimes generate boring or inappropriate texts or misinterpret or ignore the prompt.

To use text generation with ChatGPT in OMN, you should keep a few things in mind. Firstly, you should formulate a "good" prompt that is clear and specific and gives ChatGPT enough clues to generate relevant text. Secondly, you should critically review the generated text and correct or improve it if necessary. One should not blindly trust ChatGPT or use its texts without checking. Third, you should consider the ethical and legal aspects of text generation with ChatGPT and make sure that you respect the copyright and privacy of others and do not generate harmful or abusive content.

AI Text - ChatGPT

If you want to generate texts for a product with ChatGPT, you can use the function directly in the PIM module (from different views) or directly from the PIM search.

User Guide KI Services neuro functions

You can find the function under AI Text >> AI Text (OpenAI-ChatGPT)

The function can also be executed on one or more products at once.

When executing the function, you must specify a few parameters so that the text generation can be carried out with ChatGPT.

User Guide KI Services ChatGPT modal
Figure 24. Text generation with ChatGPT (OpenAI)

You can take the parameters for generation by the AI service from the table below.

Parameter name Description

Target attribute

  • PIM attribute in which the text to be generated should be saved

  • In the OMN Accelerator Standard, the target attribute is pre-assigned so that the generated text is imported into the AI-generated text attribute

Style

  • Here you can specify the style for text generation in the form of pre-assigned parameters

    • Accurate

    • Balanced

    • Creative

Prompt

  • Here you can enter the instruction in the form of a prompt as to what ChatGPT should output.

  • An example of a prompt is: "Generate a product text in German and in 2 sentences for the product with the properties provided".

Language tag

  • Selection of the target language in which the text should be generated.

  • The languages German and English are available as standard.

  • The language selection contains the languages that are configured in the OMN, even if the AI service potentially supports other languages.

  • Additional languages can be added by the administrator at any time.

Attributes to be included

  • OMN can provide ChatGPT with product information in the form of attributes that should be taken into account when generating text

  • By default, all available attributes for the selected product are passed to ChatGPT for text generation by specifying “*”

Attributes to be excluded

  • In contrast to the previous parameter, this parameter can be used to exclude certain attributes from being passed to ChatGPT that are not relevant for text generation, e.g. status fields of a product

The text generation can take some time (usually 5-30 seconds).

You can see the result of the text recognition, for example, in the Product View under "Details" in the accordion "Product descriptions+text" in the attribute AI generated text.

You can subsequently modify the automatically generated text yourself using the editor or have a new text generated if you don’t like the text suggestion.
User Guide KI Services productview modifytext
Figure 25. Automatically generated text with ChatGPT

Using AI text generation with template-based text generation (textengine.io)

In contrast to text generation with generative AI systems such as Neuroflash, Chat-GPT or Conversionmaker, text generation with Retresco and its textengine.io service requires the creation of one or more so-called templates (also called cartridges), which contain the rules and attributes of how the text should be generated and based on which attributes it should be generated. It is also common to create separate templates for different product groups. The template-based approach to text generation has the advantage that the template can be used to predetermine how and with which rules the text should be generated. It is therefore a deterministic process that ensures that only texts that follow the set of rules are generated. This means that not every text has to be checked and is therefore suitable for large quantities of text generation or updates.

To use template-based text generation in OMN Accelerator, a corresponding, customer-specific template must be created in Textengine.io. Creating a text model requires certain qualifications. If you are interested, Apollo will be happy to "enable" you to create such text models or will also take on this task as a service.

In OMN, under AI text >> AI text generation (shoes), you will find a demo function that can create an automatically generated text for demo products from the shoe range (this is not intended for productive use).
