1# Azure AI Vision Image Analysis — Java SDK Quick Reference
2 
3> Condensed from **azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java**. Full patterns (dense captions, smart crops, people detection)
4> in the **azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis-java** plugin skill if installed.

6## Install
7```xml
8<dependency>
9  <groupId>com.azure</groupId>
10  <artifactId>azure-ai-vision-imageanalysis</artifactId>
11  <version>1.1.0-beta.1</version>
12</dependency>
13```
14 
15## Quick Start
16```java
17import com.azure.ai.vision.imageanalysis.ImageAnalysisClient;
18import com.azure.ai.vision.imageanalysis.ImageAnalysisClientBuilder;
19import com.azure.ai.vision.imageanalysis.models.*;
20ImageAnalysisClient client = new ImageAnalysisClientBuilder()
21    .endpoint(endpoint).credential(credential).buildClient();
22```
23 
24## Non-Obvious Patterns
25- File input: `BinaryData.fromFile(new File("img.jpg").toPath())`
26- URL: `client.analyzeFromUrl(url, Arrays.asList(VisualFeatures.CAPTION), options)`
27- `ImageAnalysisOptions.setSmartCropsAspectRatios(Arrays.asList(1.0, 1.5))`

29## Best Practices
301. Select only needed features to reduce latency and cost
312. Caption/Dense Captions require GPU-supported regions
323. Use `setGenderNeutralCaption(true)` for inclusive output
334. Specify language with `setLanguage("en")` for localized captions
345. Use async client for high-throughput scenarios
