There are 2 kinds of scans done by PictureEcho: Exact Match and Similar Match. The Exact Match finds 100% same pictures, while the Similar Match finds look-alike pictures utilizing its visual-similarity algorithm.
The similarity levels come into play when we perform a Similar Match scan. PictureEcho analyzes the date and time properties of the images and offers 4 different levels to scan the duplicate images in your computer. You can locate the Similarity Settings from the main interface of the software.
Let me explain all these levels in simple terms.
Level 1
Level 1 finds duplicate photos captured by a camera within a timespan of 30 seconds. The short time frame makes the hunt for duplicate photos easy. Running this scan will definitely find many near-same pictures.
Level 2
This level targets those images which are captured by a camera within a timespan of 1 minute. The level 2 will also find a lot of duplicate pictures.
Level 3
Level 3 would scan pictures which are captured by a camera within 1 hour.
Level 4
This level doesn’t take into account the time when photos were captured. If you choose this setting, the software would come up with many similar pictures that should be reviewed carefully.
I hope now you better understand the similarity functions of PictureEcho.
Do you still have any doubts? Why not perform a scan and review the results yourself!
