Near-Duplicate Image Detection

What's a fast way to sort a given set of images by their similarity to each other. At the moment I have a system that does histogram analysis between two images, but this is a very expensive operation and seems too overkill. Optimally I am looking for a algorithm that would give each image a score (for example a integer score, such a...

Is there a general purpose Java paint applet base?

Hello, I'm working on a system for graphically querying data from a database of parasite specimens, in this case, these worm-like ones called Trematodes. Specifically, I'm looking at how to do the front end. It needs to be web based, so I'm looking at using Java. The way I envision it working is much like Mr. Potato Head. Users woul...

Multidimensional indexing of images

Hi, I would like to know if there is a good way for indexing multidimensional objects (i.e. images). More precisely, I have a large collection of images on which I calculate n-dimensional feature vectors. There is a distance metric (i.e. L2-norm) defined over those feature vectors d(u,v). Given a key (an n-dimensional) k, the index shou...

Visual Similarity Algorithms (for CBIR)

I am trying to build a collection of Visual similarity between images, being size, angle, color, rotation invariant for Content Based Image Retrieval.Quite agnostic about the platform but .NET, Java or Python are preferred. But if others are available, pls. suggest away. I am quite familiar with OpenCV Match template and Match shapes. I...
