Abstract

A real-time reverse image searching for images analogous to a representative frame having patterns, including identifying, on a computing device connected to a network, one of the images as the representative frame as input; providing a processor connected to the network and having access to at least one database comprising vectors associated with respective images and videos, the processor: calculating representations for the patterns in the representative frame to form a representative vector, the representations corresponding to dimensions of the vector; reducing the vector by reducing a number of the dimensions by more than 90% and a maximum trade-off between the quality of the image and the size of vector; detecting, in the at least one database, the vectors most similar to the vector of the representative frame; and offering, in real-time via the network, images and videos associated with the selected vectors. The patterns consist of colors.
