How about you just resize all the images to standard dimensions you define? Did you even take a look at the documentation? Also remarks like Please provide the code in python will not work on this forum, instead people will tend to completely ignore your question.

My question is then, why in the world would you start programming face recognition if resizing images is still a difficult task? I suggest you start with the python tutorials step by step to get the hang of programming OpenCV in the Python languages.

The paper on fisher faces clearly states that you need equal sized face descriptors. That is only possible with equally sized images!

Sorry . I figured it out why i was getting that error . I used to detect faces in training images and then add it to the recognizer.train function . since the size of faces detected used to differ I was getting that error . even though size of images used to be same

Like said before, after detection you need to rescale to a single uniform scale to achieve a working person recognizer!

You can use, "cv2.resize(image, (height, width))" this function to resize the training images just before you feed it to the recognizer
