Face Recognition Operations - Identify From Dynamic Person Group
1-to-many identification to find the closest matches of the specific query person face from a Dynamic Person Group.
For each face in the faceIds array, Face Identify will compute similarities between the query face and all the faces in the Dynamic Person Group (given by dynamicPersonGroupId), and return candidate person(s) for that face ranked by similarity confidence.
Note
-
- The algorithm allows more than one face to be identified independently at the same request, but no more than 10 faces.
- Each person could have more than one face, but no more than 248 faces.
- Higher face image quality means better identification precision. Please consider high-quality faces: frontal, clear, and face size is 200x200 pixels (100 pixels between eyes) or bigger.
- Number of candidates returned is restricted by maxNumOfCandidatesReturned and confidenceThreshold. If no person is identified, the returned candidates will be an empty array.
- The Identify operation can only match faces obtained with the same recognition model, that is associated with the query faces.

dynamicPersonGroupId | True |
string |
DynamicPersonGroupId of the target PersonDirectory DynamicPersonGroup to match against. |
faceIds | True |
string[] |
Array of query faces faceIds, created by the "Detect". Each of the faces are identified independently. The valid number of faceIds is between [1, 10]. |
confidenceThreshold |
number |
Customized identification confidence threshold, in the range of [0, 1]. Advanced user can tweak this value to override default internal threshold for better precision on their scenario data. Note there is no guarantee of this threshold value working on other data and after algorithm updates. |
