faces under the same name all automatically confirmed
When you import images with faces, face matrices are not automatically created for performance reasons. You must rebuild the training database in the maintenance tool. Maik Mike, I marked it as grave as after I imported the images I was not able to re create the matrices as the "confirmed" faces were totally messed up. I understood the matrices are built on the confirmed faces, am I right? Now I've deleted all images as their metadata was overwritten by digikam, I'm copying them again and checking that confirmed faces are written in the xmp metadata. then will import in digiKam and will check if the faces are correct then will run the matrice creation. is it ok? You don't need to delete any metadata at all, just rebuild the training database for the faces. https://docs.digikam.org/en/maintenance_tools/maintenance_faces.html# Maik but if I rebuild it it will use wrong faces as confirmed, if you look at the image almost all the faces are wrong, you can see they are not the same person. From the documentation " Use this to clear all training data from the face recognition database and rebuild it using the face tag thumbnails. This is useful if you have changed the face tag regions on several images, or if the recognition process isn’t returning as many results as you expect." I cannot use it. I need to import the images with the correct face tags and then rebuild the training database before Digikam marks hundreds of random faces as confirmed And we already have Bug 472266 on this issue. Maik *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 472266 *** You should not run background face recognition when importing images with faces. Maik ok, I'll disable it |
