             Once you have a tag assigned to a few photographs you can have &digikam; looking if it can find more photographs showing the same face. To prepare that process you click <guilabel>Scan collection for faces</guilabel> but his time you select <guilabel>Recognize faces</guilabel>.

+                To be able to recognize a new face automatically, a minimum of 4 similar faces tagged in different images need to be previously trained using manual face management workflow.

             Face Recognition is faster than Face Detection but it still makes sense to click <guilabel>Options</guilabel> and confine the scan to certain albums or tags in the <guilabel>Albums</guilabel> tab, ⪚ to the "Unknown" tag. In the <guilabel>Parameters</guilabel> tab we can play with the balance between speed and accuracy. Under <guilabel>Advanced</guilabel> you will find two checkboxes. The first is explained by the text above it.
