ImGRader Similarity Detector0.2

For those who save or store multiple images, ensuring your hard drive is not cluttered with duplicate images that are wasting space can be a problem. Going through every image individually can be time consuming, so an application to search them for you can be a big help. ImGRader Similarity Detector is an program that allows users to scan multiple images at once using algorithm to detect similar or duplicate images. A decent level of features and customizable options that offer users precise control   The application employs a complicated algorithm, but to work the program is relatively simple. ImGRader Similarity Detector can select a folder to scan, then customize a few additional settings. A scan can delete, move and copy the results, with the option to set exceptions such as large or recent images. Users can also adjust the level of similarity that triggers a result in the scan, from identical images to just vaguely similar images. The developer openly acknowledges that using an image comparison algorithm is never going to be 100% accurate, but with the extra options available, there is an impressive degree. With the exclusion options and the size detection parameters, users have a good range of control over what the program does and doesn’t do. 

A simple and straightforward interface that present results clearly and concisely   

ImGRader Similarity Detector is a Java-based application and its layout works well for its functionality. Any results are displayed in the initial scan tab, with the option to access a separate tab for a particular image that displays several duplicates or similar images.  Since the algorithm is admittedly always going to have a margin of error, a special tab to analyze the results in detail is welcomed and a useful feature. The results can be easily browsed with buttons clearly displayed over image, to delete, move or just tag it as a mistake.

A helpful, easy-to-use application that most will be satisfied and content with  

The ImGRader Similarity Detector includes an inherent danger of detecting and deleting images that it should not, but the range of options and controls present eliminates that threat. The developer has taken great care to make sure users don't take the results for granted. All in all, ImGRader Similarity Detector is a reliable application that users can clean up and organize their image folders with.
