Description:

Two kinds of methods have been implemented. The first method consists in applying optical character recognition on pages. Distances are computed between images to classify and images contained in a database of labeled images. The second method consists in randomly selecting a pool of images inside a directory. For each image, invariant key points are extracted and characteristic features are computed (SIFT or SURF) to build the clusters.
