- `Open` decodes JPEG, PNG and GIF. But other types can be opened with third-party decoders, because the input to func 'Icon' is Golang image.Image. [Example fork](https://github.com/Pineapples27/images4) (not mine) expanded with support of WEBP images.
- `Icon` produces an image hash-like struct called "icon", which will be used for comparision. Side note: name "hash" is reserved for true hash tables in related package for faster comparison [imagehash](https://github.com/vitali-fedulov/imagehash).

**To considerably accelerate image decoding** you can generate icons for embedded image thumbnails. Specifically, many JPEG images contain [EXIF thumbnails](https://vitali-fedulov.github.io/similar.pictures/jpeg-thumbnail-reader.html). Packages to read thumbnails: [1](https://github.com/dsoprea/go-exif) and [2](https://github.com/rwcarlsen/goexif). A note of caution: in rare cases there could be [issues](https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/116552/the-history-of-thumbnails-or-just-a-previous-thumbnail-is-embedded-in-an-image/201785#201785) with thumbnails not matching image content. EXIF standard specification: [1](https://www.media.mit.edu/pia/Research/deepview/exif.html) and [2](https://www.exif.org/Exif2-2.PDF).
**An alternative method to increase precision** instead of func 'CustomSimilar' is to generate icons for image sub-regions and compare those icons.
