Boolean detection of a face, any face

Post by AnnaLipscomb »

I need to be able to know if an uploaded photo contains a face, any face. I don't mean I need to know who the face is and match it against a database, just a simple Yes/No that a face exists. This doesn't even need to be highly accurate, only 80% or so. Are there some options for this? I'm using ImageMagick 6.8.9-9

Thank you.

I do not think there is a nice easy face detection in ImageMagick. I would suggest you try something like OpenCV where they have trained data to do face detection.
