# Output Format — JSON

## Structure

The scorer outputs a JSON file with an array of results. Each entry represents one photo.

## Schema

```json
[
  {
    "filename": "IMG_0001.jpg",
    "filepath": "/path/to/wedding-photos/IMG_0001.jpg",
    "subtype": "aesthetic",
    "laion_score": 7.2,
    "laion_version": "v2",
    "scoring_date": "2026-01-15T10:30:00Z"
  }
]
```

## Fields

| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| `filename` | string | Base filename (e.g., `IMG_0001.jpg`) |
| `filepath` | string | Full absolute path to the image |
| `subtype` | string | Classifier subtype — `aesthetic` for LAION (future: `technical`, `blur`, etc.) |
| `laion_score` | float | LAION aesthetic score (0-10 scale) |
| `laion_version` | string | Version of LAION model used (e.g., `v2`) |
| `scoring_date` | string | ISO 8601 timestamp of when scoring was performed |

## Example

```json
[
  {
    "filename": "DSC_0421.jpg",
    "filepath": "C:/wedding-photos/day1/DSC_0421.jpg",
    "subtype": "aesthetic",
    "laion_score": 8.1,
    "laion_version": "v2",
    "scoring_date": "2026-01-15T10:30:00Z"
  },
  {
    "filename": "DSC_0422.jpg",
    "filepath": "C:/wedding-photos/day1/DSC_0422.jpg",
    "subtype": "aesthetic",
    "laion_score": 3.4,
    "laion_version": "v2",
    "scoring_date": "2026-01-15T10:30:01Z"
  }
]
```

## Thresholds (TBD)

Thresholds for keep/reject/review are not yet defined. Will be determined after running initial batches and reviewing score distributions.

Suggested approach:

1. Score a sample of 100-200 photos
2. Analyze the score distribution
3. Set thresholds based on the distribution (e.g., top 25% = keep, bottom 25% = reject, middle = review)
4. Adjust based on photographer feedback
