E-commerce platforms like Weidian (also known as Weidian, a micro-merchant platform under Tencent's WeChat ecosystem) allow merchants to list their products, including images, to attract buyers. When users search for products, the platform's algorithm displays relevant results. For image searches, this involves recognizing and categorizing the images based on their content.

Weidian’s image search crops the user’s upload to a square (1:1) by default. Phase 2 (6–14 weeks): Core infra & retrieval

Note: Weidian doesn’t have a dedicated “Top” button — “销量” (sales) is the closest to “top” for popularity.
