How can I recognize slightly modified images?

I have a very large database of jpeg images, about 2 million. I would like to do a fuzzy search for duplicates among those images. Duplicate images are two images that have many (around half) of their pixels with identical values and the rest are off by about +/- 3 in their R/G/B values. The images are identical to the naked eye. It'...

Use numpy to mask an image with a pattern?

I'm using numpy to build pixel arrays. An 800x600 image is an 3-dimensional array of uint8, 800x600x3. I also have a similar array with a fixed pattern (a checkerboard, see here). I have another array, 800x600 of mask values. Where the mask is zero, I want to copy the pattern pixel to the image pixel. Where the mask is not zero, I wa...

Each image is in grayscale and black color (or values equal 0 in data matrix after importing it) is the background that needs to be removed. And my questions are: How to combine these 25 images to one 3D image? How to draw each one with some space bet...

Convert bmp to 256 colors

I need to reduce a 32bit bmp to a maximum of 256 colors, either manually or through some built in .net functionality. I haven't managed to find any info on how to do it. Could someone offer some pointers please. Edit: To clarify, I don't really just want to convert the 32 bit bmp to an 8 bit bmp. I want to map the input bmp to a standar...

Using the Image.point() method in PIL to manipulate pixel data

I am using the Python Imaging Library to colorize a black and white image with a lookup table that defines the color relationships. The lookup table is simply a 256-element list of RGB tuples: >>> len(colors) 256 >>> colors[0] (255, 237, 237) >>> colors[127] (50, 196, 33) >>> My first version used the getpixel() and putpixel() met...

OpenCV with other GUI (like Qt or WxWidgets) on Win32 VC++

I want to use OpenCV's image processing functions, but not the OpenCV GUI. I'm using OpenCV 2.0. I will use either Qt4 or WxWidgets for GUI functions. I compile with VC++ 2008 Express (VC++ 9.0). I guess it breaks down to two or three questions: Is it necessary to do something to disable OpenCV's higui so it does not interfere with...

iPhone, modify UIImage to a target average color

Hi, I need for a project to modify UIImage. Here are steps I have to follow - I extract the average color of the image by taking several points in the image and calculating the average R, G and B - The next step is to modify the image in order to have a new average R, G and B for the modified image. This new R, G and B is given, the thi...
