Face Recognition with OpenCV in Python Tutorial |Face detection

We discussed how to perform Face Recognition using OpenCV in Python :
1.Detect Face 2.Generated labels for training data & train classifier 3.Predict image.
We talked about using webcam to do realtime face recognition
We looked at scripts to generate hundreds of training images quickly and to resize images

Hi guys, at (04:04) where I give the path of XML file, I have mistakenly given a forward slash in front of filename which isn't required .If file is present in same folder as that of script, then directly giving the name of file is sufficient.

its gudd to learn from someone who looks one of us. Doing basic mistakes, actually helps to break monotony and make the listener to awake and see what's happening.

if we are using default haar cascade then it will only detect our face like there will be a rectangle arround the object or face but what if we want to recognise it by adding our images ? like how we can add our data or images into that default xml? Is there any way to correlate between them?

@Neha Yadav

Can you help me out ?? I have already made a face detection as mention above. Now i want to implement it like Attendance Management. Is there any way out ??

[anirudhrodda]

hello maam, i am working face detection project, in that how do i save only one image of a person when it gives us multiple images of same person as in your dataset

[viane]

We have to modify code and add name if we want to add another person to recognize?

[parameswaranp]

Getting an error:
line 40, in train_classifier
face_recognizer.train(faces, np.array(faceID))
cv2.error: OpenCV(4.2.0) error: (-210:Unsupported format or combination of formats) Empty training data was given. You'll need more than one sample to learn a model. in function 'cv::face::LBPH::train'

if I change my training_data path to "c:user\python\training data\0" folder r inside other folder with an image (eg:""c:user\python\training data\0") it works but it is not working for ("c:user\python\training data") I cant train the image.


help me please thank you for the great video...
