Find Similar Images function

The Find Similar Images function can be useful for finding images that look similar, but you have to remember that it sees the world through very simple eyes.

Here is a comparison of different images to show how the Find Similar Images function works or doesn't work as the case may be :)


Match? Picture 1 Picture 2 Comments
Yes Different pictures with reasonably similar areas of brightness. Actually I was surprised that this one worked - it needed a threshold of 30%
Yes Different pictures with similar areas of brightness. This would work even if one picture had a different person in the same place wearing similar clothes.
Yes The same picture with different quality and overall brightness but it's ok because it's the same original picture. This kind of thing is what the function is really good at.
No The same picture but one is shifted in the frame so the areas of brightness don't match.
No No chance. It may be the same bird but they're different pictures with different areas of brightness.
