🚀 Features
🎨 Intelligent Personalization
Auto Mode
Start fresh with algorithm-selected wallpapers from curated collections. The app learns your taste as you provide feedback.
Personalize Mode
Upload one favorite wallpaper and instantly get 100+ similar matches. The algorithm analyzes:
- Deep Visual Features (70%): MobileNetV3 embeddings capture artistic style, composition, and mood
- Color Palette (20%): LAB color space analysis for perceptually accurate matching
- Category Affinity (10%): Learns your preference for categories (gruvbox, nord, nature, minimal, etc.)
🧠 Adaptive Learning Algorithm
- Exponential Moving Average (EMA): Smoothly integrates new preferences without forgetting old ones
- Implicit Feedback: Learns from wallpaper duration (quick changes = dislike, long duration = like)
- Temporal Diversity: Prevents repetitive categories with recency penalties
- Progressive Trust: Balances original embeddings with learned preferences over time
