Important!
Images uploaded to the reference face database should meet some requirements (see Requirements for images uploaded to the reference face database).
To add an image to the reference face database, do the following:
Upload an image in the preferred way (see Selecting a way to upload an image to the reference face database) or add the captured face image (see Add captured faces to the reference face database).
To the right of the image, the
or 
icons are displayed.The
icon means that the captured face can be added to the DB.When the
icon is displayed, the Save button (3) is disabled and the captured face cannot be added to the DB. This may be caused by one of the following reasons:- The reference face database editing is not enabled (see Configuring permissions and additional settings).
- The recognition module is not activated (see Activation of the recognition modules in Face Intellect).
- There is no connection to the Face recognition server.
Specify the required data about the face in the Last name, Name, Patronymic, Department and Comment fields (1).
Note
If the HUAWEI Recognition Module is used, the fields for specifying the data about the face differ from those presented above (for details, see Specific features of adding images to the reference face database using the HUAWEI recognition module).
Note
If the image was added to the reference face database using the Load from file or Load from folder way, the data about the person is generated automatically: the values of the Last name, Name, Patronymic and Department fields are taken from the name of the uploaded file. The following characters can be used as a separator: a period, a comma, a space symbol, a low line.
The format of the file name should be in on of the following formats:
- last name.name.patronymic.department.any following text will be ignored.image format
- last name,name,patronymic,department,any following text will be ignored.image format
- last name name patronymic department any following text will be ignored.image format
- last name_name_patronymic_department_any following text will be ignored.image format
Supported file formats: JPG, JPEG, JPE, JFIF, PNG, GIF and BMP.
Attention!
In case the Load from folder method was selected, the Allow creating departments checkbox is not set (see Configuring permissions and additional settings), and a non-existent department is specified in the file names, then the faces will be added to the currently selected department.
To create the user in the Intellect database, check the corresponding box (2).
Note
By default, if the checkbox is not set, then the Person_ID = 0 parameter value is assigned to all faces when adding them to the reference face database. This may result in incorrect operation of scripts which use this database field. In order to hide the Create a user in the Intellect database checkbox and assign a unique Person_ID to each face when adding it to the reference face database, it is necessary to set the True value for the HideCheckBoxIntellectPerson parameter (see XML-file parameters reference guide).
Click the Save button (3) to accept the addition of the image to the reference face database.
Note
If the image was added to the reference face database using the Load from folder way, then after clicking the Save button, the menu will be displayed. In this menu, select one of the following:
- Add picture — to add only the current image;
- Add all pictures — to automatically add all images in the folder.
If there are several faces on the added image, they are framed with a red frame and the Save button is disabled. To add a person to the reference face database, left-click on one of the framed faces.
Important!
If you automatically add face images from the folder, it is necessary that every image contains only one face. If there are 2 or more faces in the image, or the face was not recognized due to the poor image quality, it will be skipped. It is possible to automatically move skipped images to a specific folder. To do this, specify the path to this folder in the face_client.run.config configuration file in the ProblemImages parameter (see XML-file parameters reference guide).
