Image Comparison Project

This project contains a set of scripts for finding and moving similar images from a source folder to a destination folder.

Requirements

Python 3.7+ OpenCV PyYAML imaging_interview

Data Format

1. The images are in PNG format.
2. Each image file is named following the pattern: c%camera_id%-%timestamp%.png.
3. The timestamp is in either of two formats.

Installation

1. Install the necessary packages by running pip install -r requirements.txt.
2. Update the source_folder and destination_folder variables in config.yaml with the paths to your source and destination folders.
3. Run python main.py to start the image processing script.

General Working

This script will process all images in the source folder, compare each image with the next one, and move similar images to the destination folder. The similarity of images is determined by a threshold value. If the score of the comparison is less than the threshold, the images are considered similar.
