Bug ID: 502219
Summary: Right-click, "Recognize faces" does no longer
recognize any faces.
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.7.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Faces-Recognition
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: iwannaber...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I believe I found a regression in the face recognition feature. Right-click,
"Recognize Faces" no longer works in current 8.7.0 builds. I'm not sure when it
stopped working, but it's been at least a few weeks. Face detection works fine,
though. Basically when you scan new pictures for faces, you can see the newly
detected faces in the People panel, but there are always 0 recognized faces,
even if it's a very familiar face.
However, and I haven't been able to figure out exactly why, from time to time
it works and it finally recognizes the faces. Sometimes just waiting a few
minutes and trying again seems to work.
I also tried to complete rebuild the training database by going to Tools ->
Maintenance -> Detect and Recognize faces -> Rebuild all training data. It
takes a few minutes, and when it's done, it seems that face recognition works
until the next restart.
I'm happy to provide any logs, screenshots or video recordings that would help
you troubleshoot it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select a group of pictures with people.
2. Right click.
3. "Recognize faces"
4. Wait for results
OBSERVED RESULT
The pictures are scanned, but 0 faces are recognized.
EXPECTED RESULT
Familiar faces are recognized and suggested to the respective person in the
People panel.
