Face_recognition_

Used opencv library, haarcascade classifier and KNN algorithm to make face recognition

  • Face recognition
    • 1 Face detection Using haar cascade classifier
    • 2 Face data Saving dataset in new folder in npy form
    • 3 Face recognition Using OpenCV haar cascade and KNN algorithm

What is Haar Cascade classifier ?

OpenCV provides a training method (see Cascade Classifier Training) or pretrained models, You can do detection using the cv::CascadeClassifier::detectMultiScale method, which returns boundary rectangles for the detected faces or eyes. There are various Xml files which you can use in your models You can download required file from :- https://github.com/opencv/opencv/tree/master/data/haarcascades

But in this project we will use -haarcascade_frontalface_alt.xml
