Pelgine

Pelgine allows one to explore the space of pixelartworks through color palettes. Color based search engines typically allow the user to input a single color or multiple pre-selected color, which is limiting because there are many images that are not represented by a single color. Pelgine allows one to search artworks using up to 5 colors of their choice, and gives accurate reccomendations fast.

Usage

1. Install the neccesary packages : flask, pickle, colormath, matplotlib
2. Unzip PJpickle.zip, and place pixeljoint.pickle in the main directory
3. run init.py and visit http://127.0.0.1:5000/

To-Do

1. Allow one to search new datasets: clothing, website layouts, sprites, etc
2. Visually show the palette for each artwork on the search page
3. Allow mixed search -- text + colors
