I have made the first level changes to migrate from process execution for every detect faces call, to one time execution of facedetect process and then communicate over DBus.https://gitlab.gnome.org/nma83/shotwell/commit/4c84248b80ebf3a1f1eb05aa60625d9d8c5d0134 The DBus interface XML is at:https://gitlab.gnome.org/nma83/shotwell/blob/wip/faces/facedetect/org.gnome.ShotwellFaces1.xml I have implemented DetectFaces and Terminate methods. The next steps are: 1. Extract the faces detected in photos and cache them (downsizing if needed) - maybe in $HOME/.cache/shotwell2. Run face training on the labelled faces, with a minimum number of faces per label (maybe 10)3. Attempt to automatically recognise and label faces in photos after training

Do not run another process for face detection (shotwell-facedetect) but integrate the OpenCV calls into shotwell and link to OpenCV libraries This is potentially problematic as OpenCV can be compiled against Gtk2 - which will break Shotwell then and is the reason why the detection was done in a separate process in the first place. 2. Ability to use OpenCL when available on the platform using T-API in OpenCV 3.x3. Eventually add face recognition on photos using a trained model based on faces labelled by the user - this would need a few faces to be tagged by the user before the OpenCV face recognition calls can be used (https://docs.opencv.org/2.4/modules/contrib/doc/facerec/facerec_tutorial.html). There is also some prior work on this by the original author of facedetect: https://github.com/Sanva/facedetect Is there anyone else working on this area?
