lorenz Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hello, is there a way to exclude folders from face recognition? For instance, I have some folders with weddings or with images taken at demonstrations and they include hundreds of faces I don't want to have recognised... It would be awesome if such folders could be excluded. All the best Lorenz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daria Kotilainen Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hi Lorenz, Unfortunately, it is not possible in the current version. Kind regards, Daria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenz Posted January 5, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hi Daria, Is such a function already planned for future releases? If not, I'll look for a workaround. All the best Lorenz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daria Kotilainen Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Hi Lorenz, No, we have not included this functionality into the roadmap yet as this is the very first time we receive such a request Kind regards, Daria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rene Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 I would even go further and kindly request the following Like the "rescan folder" function, i would like to rescan folders for facces! This way my mum and i can sit down and have the scan recognizes faces of her side of the family etc I think this will reduce the energy consumtion because i can only scan the folders needed at the time i need them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daria Kotilainen Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 This sounds like a good idea, we will consider this option for implementation if we get more similar requests. Kind regards Daria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lorenz Posted January 20, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 That's a great idea I would like to support. I only need face recognition for some folders which are maybe 10% of all folders. It would help me not to have to ignore hundreds of people (e.g. when photographing the audience of a sports event).

WilfriedB Posted January 20, 2022 Report Share Posted January 20, 2022 On 1/5/2022 at 10:57 AM, lorenz said: exclude folders I also strongly support some way to exclude (or include only a subset) certain images from face recognition. However, that could be done by excluding or including folders or just be setting some tag. In any case, I'd consider it a nightmare switching on face recognition could result in analyzing 200k+ images! One of the reasons, why I did not even try it yet. Until now, I am happy still using Picasa for face recognition (but being aware this might stop working sooner or later). That way, I have more than 25.000 images already tagged with peoples' names. For sure, I need to exclude those from any future face recognition analysis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
