Face Recognition Project using OpenCV in Python
Numpy
OpenCV
Install Numpy via anaconda: conda install numpy
Install OpenCV via anaconda: conda install -c menpo opencv
Run Tester.py script on commandline to train recognizer on training
images and also predict test_img:
python Tester.py
1.Place some test images in TestImages folder that you want to predict
in Tester.py file
2.Place Images for training the classifier in
trainingImages folder.If you want to train clasifier to recognize
multiple people then add each persons folder in separate label markes as
0,1,2,etc and then add their names along with labels in
tester.py/videoTester.py file in 'name' variable.
3.To generate
test images for training classifier use video_to_image.py file.
4.To do
test run via Tester.py give the path of image in test_img variable
5.Use "videoTester.py" script for predicting faces realtime via your webcam.(But ensure that you run tester.py first since it generates training.yml file that is being used in "videoTester.py" script.
