So I was able to generate images of my face and uploaded them into CPAI dashboard with my name.

The issue I have is, other people are now being recognized as me. This makes it hard for me to gather other peoples images and upload them into the CPAI dashboard.

Anyone know how to fix this issue?

ALSO:
I was getting this error
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'C:\\Program Files\\CodeProject\\AI\\modules\\FaceProcessing\\assets\\facerec-high.model'

So I downloaded Deepstack and moved the assets folder from deepstack to the path above. That seemed to have fixed the error.

Was that the correct thing to do? I found the solution here

Keep in mind that most of us have found that facial identification is more gimmicky and novelty than anything else. If you have to put in 5 or 10 or 15 or 35 pictures or more of yourself in the system for it to recognize it is you...then you shouldn't expect much.... My success rate was under 5% so I moved on to other things LOL. YMMV

It can work in certain situations like a business that requires everyone to stop in front of the camera and the camera is at head height. Outside of that, the percentage of being accurate is probably not going to be super high. You will get a lot of false "confirmations" doing a search.

Someone here posted once how horrible it was inside his house identifying his neighbors and others as him. Another guy his kids and wife were being tagged as him inside the house.

Unless you spend the big bucks that casinos and airports have LOL.

As always YMMV and some here use it and say it is acceptable for their use case.

Heck even in ideal situations like a business with the camera at ideal height and optimal lighting it fails....

Fair enough.

I think it's probably best to not use it for me. It is very unreliable with my testing and it said someone that is another race, gender and 80lbs lighter was me lol.

I would've liked to set alerts for unknown people but it's just going to think everyone is an already saved face and then I'll get no alerts.
 
what is the "other things"?
i have a shop and want make a blacklist with a warning, but i don't find a way for do that :-(

By "other things" meaning I gave up on facial recognition having any high confidence and moved on to other things in my life LOL
