IDEO used car learning to organize unlike fonts into a 2D bird based on vision pattern recognition. This 2D bird of fonts organized yesteryear visual similarity was too then turned into a fully interactive too searchable interactive font map.

You tin choose private fonts on the map to stance the font's name, its page on Google Fonts too a listing of like fonts.

You tin read to a greater extent than close the convolutional neural network used to grouping the fonts too the algorithm used to plow the results into 2D bird on this How To weblog post.  IDEO look to accept created their ain custom interactive map interface for exploring the fonts organized yesteryear visual similarity. However yous could easily make like results using an existing mapping library such every bit Leaflet.js.
