Description Andy 2024-03-30 10:17:32 UTC
Hello,
The question is just for my understanding.
With face recognition, an extremely large number of faces are incorrectly assigned to a person. Let's say a total of 19000 unconfirmed faces. If I assign some of the faces of the 19,000 photos to the correct person and start face recognition again, will the remaining 18,900 faces be analyzed again and possibly moved to other people? Maybe even ignored if I previously ignored faces that looked the same?
I couldn't find anything about it in the manual.

Regards
Andy

Michael,

Another entry where we can respond on the right way when SFace DNN model will be ready for production.

I think this is a documentation issue.  I'll address it in the updated 8.5.0 face management documentation.

Cheers,
Mike
