Microsoft is functioning on new face-recognition technology via a its OneAlbum undertaking, which allow consumers to locate their photographs across various social networks.OneAlbum is another of the Microsoft Analysis projects that Microsoft is showing off to its staff during this week;s TechFest 2010 study honest in Redmond. OneAlbum is actually a challenge underneath improvement by Microsoft Israel Innovation Labs. (Thanks to LiveSino.net;s PicturePan2 for that OneAlbum tip.)From your venture description:“Today,Windows 7 Pro, my album refers to a collection of pictures I have taken. But numerous photographs relevant to me—such as photos of me or my children—are in my friends; albums. OneAlbum automatically finds relevant pictures in my friends; albums on social networks or in shared albums, brings them to my album, and shows them side-by-side with the pictures I;ve taken.”The “novel,Windows 7 Home Premium, unsupervised face-recognition algorithm” behind OneAlbum “analyzes the photos in my album to locate automatically the faces of people I most care about,Windows 7 Enterprise, based on frequency of their appearance,” with no tagging required,Office Enterprise 2007, according to the Study site. OneAlbum crawls the photo albums of the user;s friends to find relevant pictures. The algorithm has been tested on “real large-scale albums,” the site says, including those with “tens of thousands of photos” and has achieved accuracy rates up to 90 percent.The algorithm works by analyzing photographs in a user;s album, thus “learning” a user;s interests. It then assumes people in a user;s album are the most relevant to that user. The deal with detection technologies that;s part of the venture is being developed in collaboration with Microsoft Analysis and Microsoft Live Labs, according to a PDF about OneAlbum.
