Rename images using deep learning

Image for demo

Auto-image-renamer automates the task of renaming images with meaningful names. It uses Microsoft Computer Vision APIs deep learning algorithms to rename the images

Update Jan 2023

Microsoft changed the old API, so I have updated the same in here. Also removed python2 support.

Dependencies

  • Python 3 (Tested under Windows Python 3.10.2)

Usage

1) Get a Microsoft API Key for Free

Sign Up

2) Create a computer vision

Replace API Key with MICROSOFT_VISION_API_KEY and end point with MICROSOFT_VISION_API_ENDPOINT in renamer.py

Usage

python renamer.py path_to_images_dir

EXAMPLE python3 renamer.py /home/sanju/images

NOTICE: Do not use a trailing slash in dir

4) Enjoy!

All the images in the given directory will be renamed with meaningful names now.

How It was Built

  1. Find all the images in the given directory
  2. Images will be sent to Microsoft API, they process the image and sent back a caption.
  3. Rename the files with new name from the VISION API

Disclaimer

It uploads the images to Microsoft servers, do not use it with personal images. (or use it with caution)
