System information (version) - OpenCV => 2.4.9.1 - Operating System / Platform => Linux Ubuntu 64 Bit - Compiler => CMake 3.5.1

Detailed description

I use imgshow to prompt the webcam capture and add a rectangle and the subject found with FisherFace algorithm AT&T orl_face photo base. The problem is FisherFace algorithm detect me even if I am not in the database, it confuses me with 2 subjects... I changed the minNeighbours parameter but it doesn't change anything.

Thanks to the FaceRecognizer() Thresholds documentation, I updated the code :

// Create a FaceRecognizer and train it on the given images:
Ptr<FaceRecognizer> model = createFisherFaceRecognizer(10,0.0);
model->train(images, labels);
// The following line reads the threshold from the Eigenfaces model:
double current_threshold = model->getDouble("threshold");
// And this line sets the threshold to 0.0:
model->set("threshold", 0.0);
.
.
.
haar_cascade.detectMultiScale(gray, faces, 1.1, 5,0, cvSize(30,30), cvSize(30,30));
.
.
.
Mat face_resized;
cv::resize(face, face_resized, Size(im_width, im_height), 1.0, 1.0, INTER_CUBIC);
// Now perform the prediction, see how easy that is:
int prediction = model->predict(face_resized);
// And finally write all we've found out to the original image!
// First of all draw a green rectangle around the detected face:
cout << prediction << endl;

(See full code just below)

it seems, you simply misunderstood, how the prediction works (all it can do is returrn the closest item from the db)

your current setup does not allow to handle this, you might want a few additional steps:

  • look up the createFisherFaceRecognizer() signature, you can give it a threshold value for the prediction distance , so any distance value larger than X will result in returning a -1 value, start with something like 500, and improve, doing a lot of tests

  • make printing out the prediction value (and maybe even drawing the rectangle) depend on this.
