 The face is one of the easiest ways to distinguish the
individual identity of each other.

 Face recognition is a personal identification system

that uses personal characteristics of a person to
identify the person's identity.

 Human face recognition procedure basically consists

of three phases, namely face detection and data
gathering, train the recognizer and face recognition.

 There are three kinds of methods that are currently popular in
developed face recognition pattern namely, Eigenface method,
Fisherface method and Local Binary Pattern Histogram
method(LBPH).

 Facial image recognition Eigenface method is based on the

reduction of facedimensional space using Principal Component
Analysis (PCA) for facial features.

 The Local Binary Pattern Histogram is a simple solution for the
Facial Recognition System, which can recognise both front face
and side face. It can represent the local features of the image.

 It is provided by openCV library (OpenCV Computer Vision).

There are 3 Phases
To create a complete project on Face
Recognition, we must work on 3 very distinct phases:
 Face Detection and Data Gathering
 Train the Recognizer
 Face Recognition
 The most common way to detect a face (or any
objects), is using the “Haar Cascade classifier”.
 Here we will work with face detection. Initially, the
algorithm needs a lot of positive images (images of
faces) and negative images (images without faces) to
train the classifier. Then we need to extract features
from it.
 On this second phase, we must take all user data from
our dataset and “trainer” the OpenCV Recognizer.
 This is done directly by a specific OpenCV function.
The result will be a .yml file that will be saved on a
“trainer/” directory.
 we will capture a fresh face on our camera and if this
person had his face captured and trained before, our
recognizer will make a “prediction” returning its id
and an index, shown how confident the recognizer is
with this match.
 The recognizer.predict (), will take as a parameter a
captured portion of the face to be analyzed and will
return its probable owner, indicating its id and how
much confidence the recognizer is in relation with this
match.
 As always, I hope this project can help others find their
way into the exciting world of electronics!
