How the forget does Google Image Search work?

[DJ Charizard]

You just drop a image in and bam, shows you were it's been posted before.

Now I'm college for computer science/game design and I still cant figure out how it's done.

So BLF, loving google how do they work?

If you really care you better start reading up on computer vision and machine learning. As for how they do it that's secret info, but this Quora page has a lot of useful info: https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-algorithm-used-by-Google-Search-by-Image-1

Those descriptions don't go beyond the realm of, "give it an image and it runs algorithms," so it's not really helpful, but all I did was google, "google reverse image search algorithm," to find my link.

the warehouses are in the middle of the pacific so the law cannot reach them for slavery

it probably has a group of variables that checks the size of the picture, the type of pictures that it is, (png, jpeg, gif). They could have it scan the average HSV value of the image, or take apart individual pixels and compare them. Whatever they do it's pretty complicated, but cool. c;

bitrate

picture bitrate

gif compression

How come your firefox has that orange drop down? Mine don't got that. Also that just shows it in action, not how it works.

Look up classic theme restorer, it's what I use. Adds a ton of customization options as well.
