People Search on Social Media Platform Using Face Recognition

Face Recognition has received a lot of attention lately due to its varied applications. It has been widely used in defense projects and crime prevention. Such applications would require face recognition to be computed in real time when incorporating into mobile phones. This would encounter major problems like limited storage and high processing power. This could be taken care of at the cost of utilizing network bandwidth to perform the computation on a server which would make the process much faster. This paper concentrates on using two techniques to perform face recognition and return the results to the mobile devices which would then search the person on social networking sites, thus giving more insight about the person's background.
