You can start that process with the button <guilabel>Update fingerprints</guilabel> which initiates a total rebuild of the image signatures (may take hours if you have a large collection, an estimate is 2 hours for 10'000 images). Once the fingerprints are calculated you can use <guilabel>Find duplicates</guilabel>, but it will take a long time too as it has to compare every image with any other image. So the way to go in both cases is to confine your search to certain albums and/or tags. With the Similarity range you can narrow down or enlarge the search result.
