We do not send any data to our "digiKam server". I close the bug. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431831 Maik Qualmann changed: What|Removed |Added CC||metzping...@gmail.com --- Comment #3 from Maik Qualmann --- The face recognition is based on Deep Learning with Deep Neural Networks modules from OpenCV (a few terms to google). Of course, this algorithm must know what faces are. To do this, we download publicly available ready-made model data from a server of the KDE community. This happens once if the model data was not found on your computer, as I said download, no upload. The algorithm works completely locally on your computer. Now you give the faces names, so that their face vectors are saved in a database on your computer (recognition.db). In this way the algorithm learns and can recognize your faces in the future. Further improvements will result if we correct and optimize our code in new digiKam versions. Of course, we only test digiKam on our own image collections. Our hobby is photography too, and we have tens of thousands or more images on our hard drive. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

But then I have to ask, how does the facial recognition algorithm improve over time if none of the faces in our catalogs are sent to Digikam servers? Do you just rely on 3rd party datasets, etc? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Nothing... All is done locally. this is the goal of this project. We don't use any external resources to complete face detection or recognition using IA. You want to be sure. It's simple... before to scan your collections for faces, disconnect the computer from the network. You will see that all works as well... We are open source, not Google.
