The projects uses OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) an open source computer vision and machine learning software library, in order to detect faces. For feature extraction and determination Haar Cascade Classifiers are used.A Haar Cascade is basically a classifier which is used to detect particular objects from the source. For Instance The haarcascade_frontalface_default.xml is a haar cascade designed by OpenCV to detect the frontal face. The model has been fed up with a set of images of some of the Personalities including Alessia Cara, Pop Singer, Daniel Radacliffe Hollywood Celeb etc according to which whenever the pictures of these celeb are popped in front of the camera ,it tries to determine their identity.

This is a face detector that uses OpenCV2 for detection of faces using inbuilt harcascades classifiers for feature extraction,depending upon the dataset most precise results can be obtained,more the data ,well is the program trained and thus its ability of recognition is enhanced.
