Completed2025Face Recognition System

Group Photo Finder

High-precision facial detection and matching across large, unstructured photo collections.

Context & Problem

Sorting through hundreds of high-resolution group photographs after events to find pictures of specific individuals is laborious and impractical with manual human filtering.

Solution & Approach

Developed a multi-stage computer vision pipeline combining deep learning facial detection with 128-dimensional embedding classification. The system extracts faces from group images, generates feature vectors, and matches target individuals with high precision.

Key Features & Highlights

  • Robust multi-face detection handling varying lighting conditions, scales, and partial occlusions.
  • 128-dimensional facial embedding extraction for scale and rotation invariant comparison.
  • High-speed vector similarity matching across large image datasets.
  • Achieved 90.73% identification accuracy evaluated across diverse real-world event datasets.

Results & Impact

Automated event photo indexing and search, achieving 90.73% accuracy on multi-person benchmark test sets.
