Abstract
A method of operating a washing machine appliance includes obtaining an image of the wash basket and a load of articles therein from a camera assembly of a remote user interface device. The method also includes analyzing the obtained image using a machine learning image recognition process. Analyzing the obtained image may include determining a ratio of a diameter of an area occupied by the load of articles to a diameter of the wash basket or determining a ratio of a maximum height of an area occupied by the load of articles to a major axis of the wash basket. The method further includes estimating a load size of the load of articles based on the analysis and directing a wash cycle within the washing machine appliance based on the estimated load size.
