<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">I thought I'd bring this up again in case anyone has made any progress with it. It seems inevitable that as you tag more photos with faces that there will be poor quality photos in there. What is the intended behaviour here? </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, 18 Aug 2021 at 18:33, Travis Kelley <<a href="mailto:rhatguy@gmail.com">rhatguy@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I'll plus one this issue. I have the same problem, where it seems that the more you tag faces the worst the algorithms get. As Rhys mentioned, not sure if the answer is to mark faces as bad or whether it would be better to be be able to somehow specify which faces to use for training. Perhaps there is a programmatic way to detect the quality of tagged faces and select the "best" images for training? I believe there is a limit of something like the last ~100 tagged faces used for training today right?<br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Aug 18, 2021 at 1:27 PM Rhys Tyers <<a href="mailto:rhystyers1@gmail.com" target="_blank">rhystyers1@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Hello,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">What is the correct way to train the face detection model when many of the faces are poor quality images?<br><br>I have tens of thousands of photos which include hundreds of people many hundreds of times each.
