Face Detection in DK 8.5 - advice for blurry images

[Michael Miller]

Hi Steve,
For 8.5.0, I would recommend you either ignore or remove the face so it doesn't degrade face matching. In 8.6.0, I'm working on a way to tag blurry faces without it interfering with face training.

Cheers,
Mike

Subject: Face Detection in DK 8.5 - advice for blurry images

Hi,

I have a lot of detected faces that are blurry -- either because the face is
far away or the photographer is an amateur.  :-)

Often I can recognize from context who the person is.  And I've often gone
ahead and confirmed a tag.

When it is super-blurry, I have sometimes decided against it and used the
"ignore" option.  I've done this because I've started to worry that adding a
blurry image risks having ALL blurry faces now match to this person.  Is this
concern valid?  What's the best course of action for a blurry face (assuming I
can identify the face): tag, ignore, or just remove the region altogether?

Thanks,
-Steve
