Duplicate Face recognition Boxes Possible Bug????

I am having a heck of a time with face recognition and assigning a name to a face and then putting another box around the same face, telling me its unnamed. The boxes vary the slightest bit in size, I cant "x" out of the unnamed box, so I have to close the named box, then use the present unnamed box and re-type the name of the person into it. This is extremely time consuming and if the name is already present, I am not sure why Aperture is putting another unnamed box around the same face which is some cases is exactly the same size and others is differs my .5mm. Is there a way to turn this 2nd unnamed box off or to ideally remove the unnamed boxes from all the photos that have multiple naming boxes? Thanks in advance!

Maybe try rebuilding the database by holding down option-command when starting Aperture. I had some issues with duplicates in Faces and rebuilding the library worked wonders.

Advanced Sort, Filter (color, image size), DUPLICATES, face recognition, GUI customizeability

Hi,
here are some of my Lightroom Feature Requests (maybe later more):
- Filter based on image size. Example: show me all photos with a resolution of 1600x1200 or less.
- More complex filtering. Example: show me all photos from the Collection A that are tagged with keyword 'k1' and 'k2' but not with keyword 'k3' and that are in the date range d1-d2 and were made with camera model X.
- Automatic portrait/human face recognition
- Sort and filter by color! Example: show me all photos that are mostly green (blue, yellow, red, ...)
- Intelligent recognition and optional deletion of duplicates. Calculate some kind of fingerprint for each photo (file size won't do I guess) so that it will be possible to recognize duplicates EVEN if they are of different image resolution or orientation (landscape, portrait), i.e. really based on CONTENT of the image!
- Make the components in the side panels movable so that the user can arrange his/her own panel with the components he uses most and on that side of the screen where he wants it.
Besides that: I LOVE Lightroom. A GREAT product!! Use it A LOT!
Nice greetings from Germany,
Stefan.

I second that.
"More complex filtering. Example: show me all photos from the Collection A that are tagged with keyword 'k1' and 'k2' but not with keyword 'k3' and that are in the date range d1-d2 and were made with camera model X."
This should be relatively easy to do. Most other DAMs in the market, e.g. ACDSee, do have this feature. It doesn't really becomes a real database until you have this feature.
"Intelligent recognition and optional deletion of duplicates."
Another great feature in ACDSee. Somehow it finds duplicates, even if filenames and dates are different, shows the different photos and gives you an option on what to do.

Strange UI bug when using People view/face recognition

I've started playing with the face recognition in LR6/CC and have encountered an odd display bug when viewing the groups of 'named people':
The thumbnail for each named person includes a count of how many images (or perhaps that should be faces) are attributed to their specific name. However, once the number of images for a person exceeds 100, LR only displays the first two digits in the thumbnail and drops off the third one, e.g. 254 is displayed as 25. If you hover over the thumbnail, the full count (e.g. 254) is displayed so long as the mouse cursor is kept on the thumbnail. Interestingly, once the number of images attributed to a named person exceeds 1000, it does the same thing, only it adds an extra digit (so 1400 becomes 140).
I'm running this on Win7.
Anyone else seeing this?

I guess I was primarily "testing the water" to see if the problem was specific to my configuration in some way, but you make a fair point John.
Here's my (possible) bug report: LIGHTROOM Facial recognition: thumbnails not displaying full number

BUG: Face recognition data not saved to images.

i have the option to automatically save XMP data into the images activated.
so all keywords and metadata changes are not only saved to the catalog but also into my DNG and TIFF images.
now this works fine for everything except the new face recognition data.
i mean the areas (rectangles) where the faces are.
i guess the problem is that the images already contain the keywords (names) of the persons in the images.
what i did was using the rectangles to identify the persons in the images. drawing rectangles around their faces and name them.
this info about the rectangle positions is NOT automatically stored in the image files. not after hours of letting LR run idle.
this info is only stored when i manually save (CTRL+S) the images or do something other to the metadata (like adding NEW keywords to it).
so in short: just adding the face region data (the rectangles) will not trigger the automatic XMP save function when the name keyword was already asigned as keyword to the image.
that´s very bad and must considered a bug in my opinion..
i don´t like to rely on the LR catalog only. it´s unsave even with backups.
i want that the metadata info is stored in the images.
also when i give away my images i want that the metadata is in the images.
that´s why "automatically save XMP" is always active and very important for me.

I don't have any info but repost your original info at this site. Supposedly Adobe reads this and it should not get lost in the clutter I have posted a few bugs there and they were acknowledged but not fixed but Adobe seems to be pretty good at fixing potential data loss bugs/problems which I consider this to be if it is working as you describe.

Is it possible to switch off face recognition at iphoto? It's very bad

i've no found possibilities to switch off the face recognition at iphoto.

Hi MikePGallagher,
I think this depending on your notebook that you purchased...
Can you tell us what notebook you have exactly, please?

Face Recognition Problem in PSE 12

I am having a problem with face recognition with PSE 12/Windows 8.1. It is a new install, at first all went well. I could enter names and they were immediately accepted. As faces repeated recognition was working and I could click the green arrow and it would accept or even click the red x and make another selection as it should be. Then I started having problems when it would come up with the correct face I would click the green arrow and instead of accepting the box would go to "Who is This" and it would take numerous attempts to get the program to accept the name. Next I started having problems just entering names, again instead of accepting it would loop me through the "Who is This" numerous times. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
We sincerely apologize for the problem that you have been facing while using a trackpad with Photoshop Elements 11 & 12 on Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite).
We have been actively working with Apple to resolve this problem as quickly as possible. We're hopeful this will get completely resolved in an upcoming update of Yosemite(MAC 10.10).
In the meanwhile, you have two options to work around this problem:
1. Option1: Use a mouse instead of the trackpad
2. Option2: Install a plug-in which should workaround the problem
Plug-in installation instructions:
1. Close Photoshop Elements
2. Download this zip file to a location you can easily find (e.g. your desktop)
3. Unzip the file, WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin, and move it to the Plug-In folder:
• For Elements 12 – //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 12/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
• For Elements 11 - //Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 11/Support Files/Plug-Ins/
You can verify the plug-in is installed by launching the Photoshop Elements Editor and choosing Help > System Info... Scroll to the bottom of the text in the dialog and look for the plug-in name "WhiteWindowWorkaround.plugin".
Note: This plugin is a temporary workaround and should be used until this issue is addressed in Mac OSX 10.10 (Yosemite). Please remove this plugin once the issue is officially resolved by Apple.
If you are using a stylus in conjunction with a trackpad, you might see issues with your trackpad. Workaround in this particular case is to use mouse instead of the trackpad.
Hope this helps!

vaishali

LRCC Face recognition - best practices?

Ok so we are all new to the wonderful world of face recognition in LR. I'm trying to work out what would be the best practices for using this.
A little bit of background - I have a catalog of over 200,000 images. In addition to portrait and wedding clients, a significant part of my work is with models and another significant part of my work is theatre photography. I have be wanting some sort of face recognition to help with both for some time.
What are your namining conventions for people? - here's mine:
Ideally I would label people as "surname, firstname" so that I can keep members of a family together in "named people" display, but commas are not allowed in names. Also the professional name of many models doesn't fit that pattern eg "Strawberry Venom" or "Cute as Sin" are to models I have worked with.
I am trying to come up with a sensible naming convention at the moment it is "Surname/ Firstname" for clients, theatre folk and friends/family. Models are still a problem, at present I am thinking of "Surname/ Firstname (model name(s))" While I may not be able to remember the real names of models, I do usually know the names from model releases. This naming will still permit me to filter/find them in the keyword List panel by just entering the model name.
On final addition I am making to this this naming convention is the use of a hashtag suffix to the name: #F for friends and family, #C for clients, #T for theatre/actors and #M for models. This enables me to filter on just models, or just actors, or just friends and familiy. Where people fall into multiple categories I add multiple hashtags. So photos of me would be keyworded with "Butterfield/ Ian #F #T"
Unknown / unidentified people.
What I am not yet certain about is how to handle unknown / unidentified people. Unidentified people fall into a number of different categories.
People I don't know and I am never likely to know (Eg random strangers on the street, local tour guides on holiday, random people in the background etc)
This group is relatively easy to deal with - that is to simply delete the face recognition, End of story.
People I don't know the names of yet but I am likely to find out (Eg actors in a production for which I don't have a programme)
For these people I am making up a unique name using the format "date/ Context-Gendernn" Eg an unknown male actor at Stockport Garrick Theatre would be named as "20150313/ SGT-M01" Although this may appear a complex solution it has a number of advantages. If/when I do learn the name of the individual (Eg I photograph them in a different production) it is simply a case of renaming the people keyword. Creating a unique name and not simple assigning all unknowns to a bucket name will help the face recognition algorithms find this person without it being confused by have different faces assigned to the same name. I am also using the hashtage #U to make it easier to filter the unknown faces when I need to.
People I don't know the names of and there is only a slim possibility of meeting/photographing again (Eg guests as a client weeding)
It feels as though I out to just delete the face recognition and have done with it, and this is what I would do except for thing. Other than manually drawing face regions I have not yet found a way to get lightroom to rescan a folder for faces if you have previously deleted the face recognition. This means that deleting face regions from a large number of people is something that cannot be easily reversed. I might just leave these people in the "Unnamed People" category... at lease until such time as there is a way to rescan a folder or colectoin.
Summary
My practices are still evolving. But I hope these thoughts and idea will help others think through the issues and come up with solutions that work for their situation. I am interested in hearing how other people are using the face recognition system. Especially if anyone is aware of any 'best practices' that Adobe or anyone else has recommended.

Glad it helped.
Yes and no. You can still put the people keywords into hierarchies within the keyword list - you can arrange them just like any other keywords.so you just create a "smith family" keyword and store "john smith" under it. What you can't do is apply BOTH smith family and john smith the the same face.
My use of the hash tags came about because I initially had a top level keyword for models, one for clients, one for theatre peple and one for family and firends. Then discovered that some of the theatre folk were also clients (headshots) and what to do when a friend is also a client. So the hash tag system means a person can be both a friend, a model, an actor as well as being a client! (#T #C #M #F).

Possible Bug with Drag-and-Drop Being Published via HTML5 - Getting "Undefined" Error When Dragging Object

Hello,
I came up with a way to use drag-and-drop interactions that will take advantage of file input so that I may create a drag-and-drop interaction that uses one draggable object over and over allowing multiple scoring/tracking possibilities. Example use...is having the draggable object be dynamic in that it randomly changes its text so that a learner can drag a term it's possible classification.........thus allowing the possibility of having many terms easily loaded without having to redo a drag-and-drop interaction for each needed terms/classifications updates/changes.
My Issue: When using a variable to represent the text for a draggable Smart Shape object, I'm getting the error message "undefined" when, clicking/pressing on the object, as well as during the drag of the object. This issue occurs when publishing the project in an HTML5 format. Flash interestingly enough seems to work perfect...but we are not interested in publishing via Flash any longer.
To better help you explore this error message, I've set up a test project so that you can see when and how the "undefined" message shows up during a drag-and-drop interaction. I've also included the Captivate 8 project file used to make the exploration project I'm sharing in this post.
Link to Captivate project I created for you all to explore "undefined" error message": http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug/
Link to this Captivate 8 Project file: http://iti.cscc.edu/drag_and_drop_bug.cptx
It's pretty interesting how things react in this demo, please try the following actions to see some interesting happenings:
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target.
Drag Black Hello square to Drag target and click undo or reset - watch the undefined message come up on the Yellow (or variable drag box).
Drag the Yellow (or variable drag box) to the drag target and then use the undo or reset.
Move both draggable boxes to the drag target and use the undo and reset buttons...
Anyhow, I know you all are sharp and will run the demo through its paces.
I'd really be very honored if anyone help me figure out how I could (when publishing out to HTML5) no longer have the "undefined" error message show up when using drag-and-drop with a variable for shape text. This technique has been well received at the college I work at...and I have many future project requests for using such an idea on a variety of similar interactions. I'd love see a solution or see if this might be a bug Adobe may be able to fix!
I tried to find a solution to the issue documented here for quite some time, but I was not able to find anyone with this problem much less attempting the idea I'm sharing in the help request - save the darn "undefined" message that comes up!
Many thanks in advance for any help and/or direction that you all may be able to provide,
Paul

Hello,
I just wanted to supply a minor update related to my drag-and-drop question/issue stated above:
I did another test using Captivate 7, and found that the undefined error (publishing as HTML5) does not appear and the variable data remains visible - except the variable data turns very small and does not honor any font size related settings.
I did go ahead and submit this to Adobe as a possible bug today.
Thanks again for any help related to this issue. If the issued documented above is solved, it will allow many amazing things to be done using Captivate's drag-and-drop for both regular type projects as well as interaction development for iBooks!
Matter of fact if this issue gets fixed, I'll publish a Blog entry (or video) on way's I've used Captivate's drag-and-drop to create dynamic learning activities for Higher Ed. and for use in iBooks.

Face recognition using labview

I, am into my final year project. I am doing face recognition using labview. I want to know how to compare image using labview. it would be great if someone helped , as it is proving to be a major obstacle in my way

Hi Sibom,
There are various face recognizing algorithms available. If your purpose is simple face recognition, then the simplest method would be to segment the image using a line, and to perform the recognition for every tilt of the image.Tthus when the line traces 180 degrees, all possible positions would have been verified.
If you like a more holistic approach you can have a look at the trace transform model and the active appearance model, which are used in the industry.
These models can be studied at :
http://www.face-rec.org/algorithms/#Image
Here are a few other algorithms for face recognition :
*Automated Face Detection System utilizing USB WebCam
*Face Recognition using Vector Quantization Histogram Technique

Photoshop elements, Programm crash while the face recognition

I installes an update from PS elements 8.0 to 12.0. After I have converted the catalog, I startet PS elements 12. I saw my pictures for a second. Then the screen "Face recognition" occured. Then the Programm ist closed with an error. Can I deactivate the face recognition? Or better, solve the problem?

We just have the exact problem here. PSE 8 - Upgrade to PSE 12 - start 12, face recognition starts and PSE 12 closes/crashes.
Uninstalling and reinstalling PSE12 did not help. Turning of the recognition is not possible as PSE12 crashes before any settings could be done.

Face recognition and places

wouldn’t be nice if also aperture could do also “face recognition” + “place” . some features are useless for professional business but some could make my work easier.

Hi schalliol,
I am not disagreeing with you - and I will use these features too and really look forward to Aperture 3.0 or whatever comes next as much as anyone. I just meant that we need to be realistic about the capabilities of face recognition in a "pro environment" - i.e. you wouldn't want the grandma to be identified as the bride, just because she wore similar glasses and her haircolour happened to match the bride's on the day... All I am saying is that it is not difficult to quickly tag people with keyword bar presets "manually" - if a face detection helps here by doing the "obvious" ones by itself - awesome - but it needs to be configurable so that a group shot or a difficult one (smaller "head" in the picture/background people) are not mis-matched etc.
Note: I have not yet played with iPhoto09 so I should probably not write all these speculative things anyways and just await the final product, I rest assured the Aperture team is aware of all these things and will come out with some really nice new features.
My second point was that many of us are waiting for slightly more critical things - i.e. selective editing, better sharpening & smoothing, non-destructive effects/filters etc. - whereas the face-recognition is a "nice to have" thing rather than a make or break - as it can obviously be accomplished by keywording in the traditional way already - manipulating an area of an image with Capture NX's or Nik's Viveza precision is still not possible by contrast, at least not in an Aperture-only and non-destructive way (technically it is non-destructive to your original image of course, but every change takes up space by creating a "full image" copy.
It will all come to us eventually - they sure got the resources to create world-class products.

Face recognition endless

ML and IPhoto: Face recognition is working endless since 2 days! Due to that drag and drop pictures in albums is not possible anymore. Tried rebuilding Library etc. but no success. Tried deleting faces.db but still no success. Face recognition is still running even faces are all finished.

So you rebuilt with iPhoto's own tools? If they fail then my next step would be to download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

Face recognition to log in WITHOUT typed password option?

I'm wondering if there's a way to completely disable type-written passwords for accounts in Windows 7. I want to have everyone who uses the machine log in solely through facial recognition, and not even have the OPTION of ever physically typing a password, like hiding accounts on the login screen or something. Is this possible? Thanks!

Hello.
>>>'m wondering if there's a way to completely disable type-written passwords for accounts in Windows 7.
I think so but I have not tried it as I am the only user on this Toshiba. Get the others to sit in front of the screen and do the "Face Recognition" skit. Then save the results named after the subject.
Then set up the Face mode to start first, I forget where this is but I defeated mine at one time. It ought to be easy to find. I defeated mine as the light has to be proper for a face to be recognized, I move around too much and at times, I am in a low-light room and the software does not recognize me.
I can not lead you now as I am not on the Toshiba. Be good. Jean.
