Face Recognition

Alignment, embeddings and a classifier.

An educational face-recognition pipeline using MTCNN alignment, pretrained FaceNet embeddings and downstream classifiers.

The question

Recognition depends on consistent preprocessing and a clear split between pretrained representations and the classifier trained for a particular dataset.

How it works

  • Align detected faces before embedding extraction.
  • Use reproducible per-identity train/test splits.
  • Train downstream classifiers and serialize model artifacts for inference.

Evidence & results

  • Public source contains the implemented alignment, embedding and classification workflow.

Scope & next steps

  • Upstream FaceNet benchmark scores are not personally achieved project results.
  • This learning project does not establish deployment suitability or performance across populations.
