Ever thought of how face recognition works ??? Riya’s face recognition might have surprised many but needs lil more tweaking … neway tis a good start … Have you ever wondered how face recognition works … The benefit of devising AI based sytem which is able to accurately recognise and locate objects / faces can really make a mark in computer vision technology.
All this needs lots of memory for all neccesary computations in order to process visual data out of the constraints of special light conditions n heavy costly gadgets for high resolution pictures.
Face / Object recognition is comparitively easier for special treated images where no other objects occlude, overlap or interfere with faces / objects in images… or that the background is not cluttered … however in realistic circumstances such things are quite obvious n cant be escaped for a robust algo.
Considering Riya’s Face recognition engine which considers all real time environments like objects, scenes n backgrounds, the best way, according to me, to track down a face in the whole image would be Skin Recognition.This is what their uploader does before uploading all images from your hard drives.l wouldnt have get onto how all this is done but since i got a few mails demanding the same i thought why not give it a try.. Believe me tis really simple …
no bone to bear here!
