Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`double`	`compare(RecognizedObject<T,V> object1, RecognizedObject<T,V> object2)`	Compares form of the two objects.

- Method Detail
  - compare
```
double compare(RecognizedObject<T,V> object1,
               RecognizedObject<T,V> object2)
```
    Compares form of the two objects. Returns how close said objects are using a percent value (e.g. 1.0 = objects are exactly the same).
    
    Parameters:
    
    object1 - object to compare
    
    object2 - object to compare
    
    Returns:
    
    percent value how close the objects are to each other
  - findClosest
```
double findClosest(RecognizedObject<T,V> compareMe,
                   List<RecognizedObject<T,V>> objects,
                   RecognizedObject<T,V> closest)
```
    Compares one object with a list of other objects. Finds the object, which is closest to the first one and puts it into the "closest" variable. Additionally, returns the percent value of how close the closest found is with the given object.
    
    Parameters:
    
    compareMe - object to compare with the other objects
    
    objects - list of objects that will be compared to the first object
    
    closest - closest found object will be put into this variable
    
    Returns:
    
    percent value how close the closest object is with the given object
