Description Yingjie Liu 2017-02-25 03:07:36 UTC 
Hi,
I am interested in project "digiKam Face Management improvements" of GSOC2017. I read the code about the face recognition part. I found that the algorithm is based on opencv face recognition algorithm after reading the code of class FacesDetector and OpenCVFaceDetector. I want to figure out what students should do about the algorithm improvements: rewriting and improvement the face algorithm in opencv or we have to implement other face recognition algorithm which has a better performance?

7.0.0 use now OpenCV neural network deep learning module for detection and recognition.
