Patent attributes
A system and method for searching images and identifying images with similar facial features is disclosed. In one implementation, the system includes a pre-processing module, a feature extraction module, a model creation module, a similarity identifier module and a results display module. The pre-processing module receives a facial image, determines key-points associated with a facial feature and identifies a facial area including the facial feature. The feature extraction module extracts the key-points. The model creation module creates a similarity model for determining similar facial features at least in part by comparing the facial feature from a plurality of images. The similarity identifier module applies the similarity model to the facial feature an image in relation to the facial feature in other images and determines which other image has a most similar facial feature. The results display module presents a result based at least in part on the determination.
