Starting the face search process

To search faces, do the following:

1. Upload an image for search (see Loading an image for search).

   Note

   The uploaded image is automatically verified with all faces in the reference face database and, if there is a match, then the name of the corresponding person and its similarity degree in percent are displayed on top of the uploaded image.

2. From the Filter drop-down list (1) select the existing face search filter or enter an arbitrary filter name if the filter is supposed to be saved.
   
3. From the (2) drop-down list, select the required type of search interval:

   • Exact time − in the Period from: and to: fields specify the beginning and end of the search interval in the DD.MM.YY HH:MM:SS format.
     

     Note

     The specified time period is not saved when the filter is saved.

   • Recently − in the Last: field specify the time period from the current time to the specified time. The following time units are available: Minutes, Hours, Days, Weeks, Months.
     

4. In the Similarity level, no less than, % field (3), set the minimal similarity level between the reference face image and the captured face.

5. Click the  button (4) to specify the face characteristics:
   1. In the Camera field (1), specify the substring to filter out the cameras in the Cameras area (2).
      
   2. In the Minimum age and Maximum age fields (3) specify the minimum and maximum age of persons to be displayed in the search results, respectively.

   3. In the area (4), set the check boxes next to the corresponding face characteristics.

      Note
