Face recognition with deep neural networks.

OpenFace is a Python face-recognition library with neural-network models, training scripts and example applications. Developers can generate representations for batches of images, compare image pairs, and train classifiers that can also be applied to webcam streams. The repository includes a real-time web demonstration and evaluation scripts for experimenting with recognition workflows.
