Face Recognition

To recognize faces, PhotoPrism first extracts crops from your images using a library based on pixel intensity comparisons. These are then fed into TensorFlow to compute 512-dimensional vectors for characterization. In the final step, the DBSCAN algorithm attempts to cluster these so-called face embeddings, so they can be matched to persons with just a few clicks. A reasonable range for the similarity distance between face embeddings is between 0.60 and 0.70, with a higher value being more aggressive and leading to larger clusters with more false positives. To cluster a smaller number of faces, you can reduce the core to 3 or 2 similar faces.

We recommend that only advanced users change these parameters:

Environment CLI Flag Default Description
PHOTOPRISM_FACE_SIZE --face-size 50 minimum size of faces in PIXELS (20-10000)

PHOTOPRISM_FACE_CLUSTER_DIST --face-cluster-dist 0.640000 similarity DISTANCE of faces forming a cluster core (0.1-1.5)
PHOTOPRISM_FACE_MATCH_DIST --face-match-dist 0.460000 similarity OFFSET for matching faces with existing clusters (0.1-1.5)
