Claim One:
1. A method comprising: by one or more computing devices, receiving an image; by the one or more computing devices, generating a single large hash value based on the image and a content-aware hashing function, wherein the large hash value has a first number of dimensions; by the one or more computing devices, generating a small hash value from the large hash value using a locality-sensitive hashing function, wherein the small hash value has a second number of dimensions, the second number being smaller than the first number; and by the one or more computing devices, determining whether the image is similar to one or more other images based on a comparison of the small hash value corresponding to the image to one or more small hash values corresponding to the one or more other images, respectively, wherein each of the one or more small hash values is generated from a large hash value that was generated based on the corresponding image and the content-aware hashing function.
