A Beginner's Guide to Face Recognition with OpenCV in Python - Sefik Ilkin Serengil

OpenCV becomes a de facto standard for image processing studies. The library offers some legacy techniques for face recognition as well. Local binary patterns histograms (LBPH), EigenFace and FisherFace methods are covered in the package. It is a fact that these conventional face recognition algorithms ARE NOT state-of-the-art techniques anymore. Nowadays, CNN based deep learning approaches overperform than these old-fashioned methods.
