Hi guys, is there any method in openCV to get the similarity score in percentage of two faces? I know that SIFT is super to solve this case, but I cannot find any good way to get the percentile result. Could anyone give me some hints? I'm a Java user, but any other language are welcome :)

@berak Thanks for the reply. In fact, I want to compare one test sample with the whole data base, and get the result with the highest percentage.

@zzywd01, so you need to find

  • distance between your sample and all database samples
  • find the largest distance (worst match)
  • normalize the range [0, largest distance] towards [100%, 0%]

In principle this will always depending on the dataset used, but thats quite normal in my opinion.

And even in my opinion, you could start from [smallest distance, largest distance], because 0 will only be obtained by the exact same image.

Thank you steven. Is this similar to the value "confidence" which can be obtained from faceRecognizer.predict(test sample, predLabel, Confidence)? It seems that I should normalize the confidence to get the percentage.
