AmongusFinder5000

A script that can search an image for a template

Originally this was intended to find occurences of Amongus within r/place. Now it can find every occurence of any template in a PNG image.

How it works

The script takes two images "source.png" and "template.png". Source.png is the image to search for template.png.

The template is formatted as such:

• Each pixel with 255 Red will be ignored in the matching
• Each pixel with 1-254 Red must be the same color
• Each pixel with 0 Red must be different from the main color

It will return two images "results.png" and "catalogue.png" Results.png contains marked matches in the original image. Catalogue.png contains a copy of every match in a table.

To match the template, it is slid across every pixel of the source and evaluated at every pixel position. Therefore this can be a somewhat costly operation if working with multiple very large templates or sources.

Todo

• Change the search method to go through image seperately for each template (maybe not mirrored, should calculate performance difference)
• Fix problem with different sized templates
• Fix the identifier for the main color
• Improve catalogue arrangement and crop functions
• Get coffee
• Add support for multiple main colors
• Add handling for normalized importance values
• Add naive bayes, or other classifiers for handling importance values
