- Make sure you have Python with pip installed
- Clone the repository
- Run
pip install requirements.txt - Go to folder /code
- Usage:
similarities.py [-h] --inputpath INPUTPATH [--outputpath OUTPUTPATH] [--method METHOD] [--cutoff CUTOFF] [--amount AMOUNT]
Analyze images how similar they are, and write the results to a .csv file
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--inputpath INPUTPATH Relative path in quotes ("") to the folder of the images, requires
--outputpath OUTPUTPATH Relative path in quotes ("") to where the results will be stored, default is the same directory
--method METHOD "GPU" or "CPU" for computing, default is "CPU"
--cutoff CUTOFF How similar images will be stored, between 0 to 1, where larger number indicates more similar images. Default is 0.9
--amount AMOUNT How many similar images will be stored, default is 5
For example:
python3 similarities.py --inputpath="../test-images/math-small" --outputpath="data/results" --method="cpu" --cutoff=0.93 --amount=5
