Computer Vision in Facebook Applications
Elena Teunissen · 2011
The ongoing research in the field of object recognition, becomes an integral element of many applications surrounding us in the everyday life. Our project aims to explore the role of computer vision in the social platforms. The goal of this thesis was to implement a Facebook application that enables both automatic and manual tagging based on successful face recognition results. Furthermore, the application should perform a simple statistic analysis of friendship ties by means of calculating the amount of tags on the user’s photos and on the photos the user has been tagged on.
