Gone are the days of training long Convolutional Resnets,this repository allows you to perform face recognition and verification from the terminal/command line itself.
The face recognizer is built using dlib's state-of-the-art face recognition built with deep learning. The model has an accuracy of 99.38% on the Labeled Faces in the Wild benchmark.The neural network used is the inception resnet V2(or popularly known as GoogLeNet).
The following python libraries need to be preinstalled to for the face-recognizer to work
Dlib
pip install dlib
pip install face_recognition
OpenCV
pip install opencv_python //for main modules
The code will work on any python ide,however python distributions like Anaconda would be preferred as they have all the necessary modules pre-installed already.
