How this classifier works
To start, upload your image. Our AI tool will then predict what type of passport it is.
This pretrained image model uses a Nyckel-created dataset and has 14 labels, including Business Passport, Child Passport, Diplomatic Passport, Electronic Passport, Emergency Passport, Military Passport, Non-Ordinary Passport, Official Passport, Refugee Travel Document and Standard Passport.
We'll also show a confidence score (the higher the number, the more confident the AI model is around what type of passport it is).
Whether you're just curious or building passport types detection into your application, we hope our classifier proves helpful.
