ImRelate

An Image Identification Program

About

ImRelate is an automatic image identification program written in Java. It is designed to calculate a probability that an image is derived from another (original) image. The algorithm is rather fast: the analysis of an image with 120x150 pixels requires about 1-3 sec. The algorithm does not use pixel fingerprints, so the method can perform image identification even if the original image was re-mastered. The algorithm tries to identify objects shown on images. The algorithm can be used in many areas such as:
  • search for a similar image;
  • detection of copyrighted images and videos on the Internet;
  • search for similar images on your PC;
  • detection of object changes in an image (object locations or sizes);
  • biometric identification;
  • computer and robot vision.
