Search problems #50

Open marcoiacobelli opened 2 years ago

hi I'm trying to better understand the potential of this project. From the tests carried out, it works only if the image given as a parameter to the search method is the same as on the db. If I change the image (always the same subject) the search returns 0 results.

I am attaching an example to better understand if it is possible to arrive at some useful result. Thank you very much for your work Brolettino-ca brolettino-lugana-doc-2019-ca-dei-frati

As this uses perceptual hashing, it won't work here as it operates on the whole image signature. So this only works if you're trying to find identical images, with slight compression / added watermark/ small changes, but not with something like this.
