Many of you might have already figured out, how to strip the code. The below is the stripped version. Here, we can just supply the gallery image and probe image, the same way as the previous post as arg1 and arg2. But here, no GUI utilities are being used. Just the output needed is printed to standard output. This drastically reduces the time for the program execution. Also, I have removed the flann method of matching, since any one (findpairs and flannfindpairs - functions) can be used and both the methods given have the same recognition performance.

Probe_image - This is the image for which you need to find the match

You keep the same probe image same, repeatedly changing the gallery image and outputting the distance in the format
<Gallery_name distance> into a file
Finally you can sort the distances in ascending order. And the one with the shortest distance - You can output it's name as the best possible match
It may become tedious to continually write the same command multiple times, changing the gallery file name. Try to use shell script with a for loop
