Abstract

See full text

The subject disclosure relates to face recognition in video. Face detection data in frames of input data are used to generate face galleries, which are labeled and used in recognizing faces throughout the video. Metadata that associates the video frame and the face are generated and maintained for subsequent identification. Faces other than those found by face detection may be found by face tracking, in which facial landmarks found by the face detection are used to track a face over previous and/or subsequent video frames. Once generated, the maintained metadata may be accessed to efficiently determine the identity of a person corresponding to a viewer-selected face.
