Prerequisites of the Face Recognition Training Course

There are no formal prerequisites for the Face Recognition Training. However, a basic understanding of facial recognition technology can be beneficial.

Face Recognition Training Course Overview

Face recognition is a type of technology used to identify or verify or an individual’s identity by using their face. Face recognition systems can recognise people in pictures, video, or in real-time. This Face Recognition Training course is designed to provide extensive knowledge of the technological workings of face recognition. Delegates will learn about face recognition processing, techniques for face detection and statistical learning methods.

Specific topics covered include how to align facial shape and texture with an input image, as well as illumination modelling for face recognition and facial skin colour modeling. In addition, delegates will learn how to address the problems of face tracking and recognition when working from a video sequence of images.
