[digiKam-users] a wild idea or wish

Daniel Bauer-2
I have no idea if this is possible, if the necessary AI exits
opensource, but as there is face-recognition in digikam, I dare to throw
in my idea:

google, facebook and others can recognize the contents of images. If
it's a house, a portrait, a beach, a tree, if male/female, if she has
nipples or if cheeks are visible (no joke, both facebook and google can
and do - with lots of errors, though),  etc.

Would it be possible that digikam can analyze and categorize images and
make them searchable by content? So that they are searchable by content.

That would be fantastic. Imagine!

I would like to second this.
Some sort of "object detection" would be a great addition to DigiKam.
For example, "OwnPhoto" claims to have it already implemented "Detect
objects in photos, and make them searchable by objects" using Object
detection: densecap, places365. See https://github.com/hooram/ownphotos
However the development of OwnPhoto seems somehow stuck in 2019 and it
might exist a fork already.
"Photoprism" seems an alternative using some AI stuff for image
classification, see:
https://docs.photoprism.org/developer-guide/metadata/classification/ and
in more general https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism
So, somehow object detection seems to be implemented in some open source
products.

Hi all,

This kind of photo contents analysis exist already with this CLI tool :

https://github.com/scheckmedia/photils-cli

Photils API is very simple to handle and can be used in a dedicated
digiKam plugin. The image content is analyzed locally, a fingerprint
is computed locally by a AI engine, the photo still on computer. AI
parse the fingerprint and return a list of keywords. Et voilà, you
have the tags to validate in client application.

We plan to include photils as extra digiKam plugin later 7.2.0. Please
be patient...

Best

I would totally love to see more AI tools included in Digikam. Like, being able to search for objects or the content of a Picture without having to manually tag them. E.g. searching photos of beaches, or pictures containing dogs but not cats.

 

Well, as long as the processing is carried offline (or with my permission). I don’t want my personal pictures uploded on some server without my knowledge...

That sounds great. I tried syncing my photos with Google just for this feature. But it would be much better having it in digiKam.

Yours patiently

Absolutely! All processing should happen locally. Anything else is unacceptable.

Sounds good :-)

As I am not very patient I downloaded photils but unfortunately it needs
GLIBC 2.27 where I (on opensuse 15.1) have 2.26. So I can't try it...
