Duplicate Image Detective
A Windows desktop application that recursively scans a directory for visually duplicate images and lets you quickly keep, trash, or permanently delete them.
Perceptual Hashing (pHash)
Detects visually identical images even if they differ in compression, quality, or resolution by tracking similarity score using bits distance.
