=========
Release 0.05
------------
2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
This library is now included in the official OpenCV distribution (from 2.4 on).
2012-07-06 22:42:02 +02:00
The :ocv:class`FaceRecognizer` :ocv:class: `Algorithm` , which better fits into the overall
2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
OpenCV API.

2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
To reduce the confusion on user side and minimize my work, libfacerec and OpenCV
have been synchronized and are now based on the same interfaces and implementation.
2012-06-26 22:13:11 +02:00
The library now has an extensive documentation:
* The API is explained in detail and with a lot of code examples.
2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
* The face recognition guide I had written for Python and GNU Octave/MATLAB has been adapted to the new OpenCV C++ `` cv::FaceRecognizer `` .
2012-06-26 22:13:11 +02:00
* A tutorial for gender classification with Fisherfaces.
2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
* A tutorial for face recognition in videos (e.g. webcam).

Release 0.03
------------
2012-10-17 19:42:09 +02:00
Reworked the library to provide separate implementations in cpp files, because
it's the preferred way of contributing OpenCV libraries. This means the library
is not header-only anymore. Slight API changes were done, please see the
2012-06-26 22:13:11 +02:00
documentation for details.
Release highlights
++++++++++++++++++
2012-07-06 22:42:02 +02:00
* New Unit Tests (for LBP Histograms) make the library more robust.
* Added more documentation.
