[digiKam-users] digikam 7.0 beta face recognition questions

[Martin Tlustos]

O.k., so I decreased my face accuracy setting. I had it set to 100% ;-); set it to 80% now - 
what is a good setting anyway? Now I get suggestions in the "unconfirmed" list from 
strange people's faces, but still not the people I know...

Also I still have these (2 new) or (6 new) messages with some of my face tags, but no green 
borders in the list, and no according faces in the "unconfirmed" list...

And, by the way: What is the difference between the "reject" button under the face and the 
red x button in the top right corner of the face?

Maybe a little more info on my database: I have around 51.000 images, and around 80 face 
tags. I have used digikam since 2006, so the databasehas come a long way. I did run the 
maintainance a couple of times, though...
