Recognition
"Recognition" is a machine-learning face recognition algorithm that classifies the viewer in relation to a constantly growing database of people who have seen the work in the past. A live camera is shown in the center of the image, to the right are the people deemed most similar in facial features, and to the left are the people deemed most dissimilar. The detection and classification processes are done using two separate neural network frameworks and are constantly reclassifying live images to detect even gestural variations.
