<div dir="auto">Face detection is optimized for human faces. It will occasionally detect animal faces. You can try setting the detection accuracy slider to 4 or 5 to see if it will detect more animal faces, but this will also increase the number of false positives.</div>

I just checked, it detected only 2 dog faces, and it missed hundreds of others, including more than 300 pictures of the 2 dogs it just detected. So maybe face recognition works, but face detection isn't very efficient? Anyhow, I'm going to tell him those dog's
names and hope it will find other occurrences.<br>

<div>Here my dog's face is also detected and recognized if tagged previously. So, I think the model has been taught with domestic animals, at least. I don't test with cats anyways (no cat at home (:-)))...</div>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I updated to 8.6.0. In the unknown faces folder, I found 2 dogs. Should <br>
I tell dK to ignore them or is there any chance the new face recognition <br>
engine will recognise those dogs in the future?<br>
