US Patent 11922368 Object classification exception handling via machine learning

Techniques for classifying and processing physical objects are disclosed. In an example, a computer system may receive first data indicating that a first machine learning model of a robotic system is incapable to classify a physical object according to at least one of a set of predetermined classifications. The computer system may also receive second data corresponding to one or more attributes associated with the physical object. A second machine learning model of the computer system may determine a cluster of physical objects that includes an identifier of the physical object, whereby the identifier is included in the cluster based at least in part on the first data and a common attribute with other physical objects of the cluster. The computer system may then determine data for processing subsequent physical objects that are determined to have the common attribute.
