Abstract

This demo presents a client-server application which collects images and personal information from social networks to build face recognition databases. The client runs on a mobile phone allowing any face captured by a mobile phone's camera to be identified. Using the personal information collected we give back the most meaningful social connection between the user and the recognized individual.
