Hello Berak, Actually i had done face recognition on system using opencv 2.4 version. But i want to do same procedure on processor board and there is already opencv 3.1 version has installed. Thats for i asking to do further.

There are many versions available of opencv. Which version i should installed on processor board for face recognition?.

ah, ok.

note, that the FaceRecognizer classes were moved to https://github.com/opencv/opencv_contrib in 3.x, so you have to build from src with that. (and your 3.1 install probably does not have those modules, so it's a bit useless)

but probably, the better idea is to move to latest 3.4, and use the pretrained openface dnn for this.

Okay Berak. So, first i have to installed 3.4,then contrib modules. Right?

if you want to use the dnn, just install 3.4 branch of the main opencv repo (however you do that)

if you want to use the facerecognizer classes, you need the src of both opencv and opencv_contrib (and same version !), and build with cmake. see readme here

Hello Berak, Thanks for your valuable reply. I have seen this guide. Initially i got steps but after some steps i am confusing.

If you have some time,can you help me to install opencv 3.4 with contrib modules and for ARM processor.

I am using ubuntu 16.04 camake version is 3.5.1

Regards, Kishan Patel.

i have no idea about ARM, sorry.

how did you get 3.1 to run on your board ?

Actually i installed SDK and 3.1 is availble with it.

ah, i see.

maybe you could try to hack it ? like copying the 3.1 version of the contrib/face module to your project, fix some headers ?
