Are there any OK image recognition libraries for .NET?
You could try this: http://code.google.com/p/aforge/
It includes a comparison analysis that will give you a score. There are many other great imaging features of all types included as well.
// The class also can be used to get similarity level between two image of the same size, which can be useful to get information about how different/similar are images:
// Create template matching algorithm's instance
// Use zero similarity to make sure algorithm will provide anything
ExhaustiveTemplateMatching tm = new ExhaustiveTemplateMatching(0);
// Compare two images
TemplateMatch[] matchings = tm.ProcessImage( image1, image2 );
// Check similarity level
if (matchings[0].Similarity > 0.95)
{
// Do something with quite similar images
}
You can exactly use EmguCV for .NET.
I did it simply. Just download the EyeOpen library here. Then use it in your C# class and write this:
use eyeopen.imaging.processing
Write
ComparableImage cc;
ComparableImage pc;
int sim;
void compare(object sender, EventArgs e){
pc = new ComparableImage(new FileInfo(files));
cc = new ComparableImage(new FileInfo(file));
pc.CalculateSimilarity(cc);
sim = pc.CalculateSimilarity(cc);
int sim2 = sim*100
Messagebox.show(sim2 + "% similar");
}
