1. A system for compressing a captured image of an item, the system comprising:
a reader configured to capture an image of an item having a label thereon, the captured image including at least a portion of the label;
a memory configured to store the captured image of the item; and
a processor in data communication with the memory and the reader, the processor configured to:
receive the captured image from the reader or retrieve the captured image from the memory;
perform a wavelet scattering transform on the captured image;
perform deep learning on the wavelet scattering transformed image to classify the wavelet scattering transformed image; and
compress the classified wavelet scattering transformed image.
