pdqhash

pdqhash-python

These are Python bindings to the PDQ perceptual hash released by Facebook. Note that the bindings are provided under the MIT license but the PDQ source code is licensed separately under its own license (see the ThreatExchange/hashing/pdq folder).

Installation

pip install pdqhash

Usage

import pdqhash

image = cv2.imread(os.path.join('tests', 'images', image_name))
image = cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
hash_vector, quality = pdqhash.compute(image)

# Get all the rotations and flips in one pass.
# hash_vectors is a list of vectors in the following order
# - Original
# - Rotated 90 degrees
# - Rotated 180 degrees
# - Rotated 270 degrees
# - Flipped vertically
# - Flipped horizontally
# - Rotated 90 degrees and flipped vertically
# - Rotated 90 degrees and flipped horizontally
hash_vectors, quality = pdqhash.compute_dihedral(image)

# Get the floating point values of the hash.
hash_vector_float, quality = pdqhash.compute_float(image)
