Abstract
A system and a method for near-duplicate image detection performed by a physical computing system includes applying a feature determining function to a number of images, a feature being defined by a geometric shape, comparing characteristics of said geometric shapes defining said features from at least two of said number of images, and characterizing said at least two of said number of images as a near-duplicate match if a predetermined percentage of said features of said at least two images match.
