Facial Analysis
During indexing, Imaginario runs facial analysis on your content: every face is extracted and analyzed automatically. The extracted faces can then be used as visual filters in your searches — this is included by default in all packages and works on anyone, not just public figures.
Combine face filters with any search modality
Where facial analysis really shines is in combination with the other search types:
| Combined with… | Example |
|---|---|
| Speech | Find a specific quote or sentence said by a specific person |
| Visuals | Find a person in a specific location, background or action |
| Sounds | Find a person while the crowd is cheering or celebrating |
How is this different from the add-on filters?
- Celebrity Visual Search Filters recognize well-known public figures by name — an add-on.
- Facial Expression Filters detect visible emotions on faces — an add-on.
- Facial analysis extracts and groups every face in your library, known or unknown — default in all packages.
To turn an extracted face into a filter, see the Visual Search Filters Introduction.
