How to Build a Photo Memories App with CLIP
Blog post from Roboflow
James Gallagher's guide, published on July 20, 2023, walks readers through the process of creating a photo memories app using CLIP, an image model developed by OpenAI. The app clusters photos around a specified theme, such as a location or concept, and compiles them into a video slideshow. The tutorial details the installation of necessary Python dependencies and the use of CLIP to generate embeddings for images and text queries, which are then indexed for efficient searching. By comparing these embeddings, the app identifies relevant images matching a thematic text input, such as "San Francisco," and compiles them into a cohesive slideshow. Gallagher emphasizes the significance of post-processing to ensure uniform image dimensions within the video output, ultimately demonstrating CLIP's versatility in computer vision applications.
