It takes around 15 seconds to load the model so it wouldn't be great if every query had to wait on that. -Run `python server.py DIRS_TO_INDEX` to start the server. Then, run `python client.py SEARCH_TEXT NUM_RESULTS` to get a list of the most similar files. You can pass this list to an image viewer such as Gwenview to view image results. Note that Gwenview doesn't preserve the order of the images. Alternatively, add a third parameter to `python client.py` and it will symlink `res0`, `res1`, and so on to the files on the list. +Run `python server.py DIRS_TO_INDEX` to start the server. The server only indexes images, audio, and videos since text files tend to irrelevantly pollute the search results. + +Then run `python client.py SEARCH_TEXT NUM_RESULTS` to get a list of the most similar files.
