1. A method comprising:
generating a query feature vector based at least in part on a query image;
determining a set of distances that comprises a respective distance between the query feature vector and each respective candidate feature vector of a set of candidate feature vectors;
generating a decision tree vector that comprises a selected subset of the determined set of distances;
inputting the decision tree vector to a trained decision tree to obtain a probability value; and
determining, in response to the probability value satisfying a threshold value, that an entity associated with the query image is a same entity that is associated with the respective candidate feature vector that produced a shortest distance of the selected subset of the determined set of distances included in the decision tree vector.
