This repository provides a brief demonstration to a content-based image retrieval engine which was done due to the proseminar of "feature matching".
We recommend to run this repository on Gitpod. Thus, you just have to prefix the URL of this repository given as following:
https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/framtale/image-retrieval
After that, you have to install several python dependencies for this project. To make it more comfortable, we added a requirements file. Therefore you have to run the following commands.
pip install requirements.txt
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 -y
However, we supplied a command line interface for you, so that you don't need to run each python script one after another. The cli is written in Rust and can be compiled as:
cd src/cli/target/release
cargo build --release
Finally, you can run the given executable using two predefined flags.
If you just want to search for sample images, you can simply run:
./cbir -s
Additionally, if you would like to evaluate the performance and plot the accuracy, you can enter the following command:
./cbir -p
