Very interesting. The technic explain on OpenBR site is very
instructive (i never look how form recognition and detection work
previously).

If i well read the code, there is a part, always compiled in libkface
but not used due to bad results : funelreal.cpp

It's to Align, Normalize, and Flat face elements for better analysis
in case of train and later recognize using LBPH.

If it's something like that, this part must be improved in the future,
through GSoC. I'm sure that we can find a student easily to work on
face management algorithm.

Or perhaps you have others ideas to improve libkface in the future ?
