[digiKam-users] Face detection/recognition with CUDA?

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

Yes, technically it's possible, but we have disable CUDA support at runtime
with OpenCV due to instability.

This need investigations to be reactivated. Read the story in bugzilla here
:

https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/blob/master/core/app/main/main.cpp#L116

In fact, as you can read OpenCL is disabled, not CUDA, with a native Linux
Package. For all other as MAcOS and Windows, all is disabled at OpenCV
compilation (CUDA and OpenCL support).

Best
