Surafel’s Status Report for 3/23/24

This week I focused on tuning the training models used for facial recognition so that it can produce the best results for our project. The most important thing I noticed in pursuit of this goal was that the training we were initially doing for the recognition models was based on a linear kernel. Since the data we were using to train was most likely not going to be linearly separable, I changed it so that the training used a non-linear kernel.
After being sick for the majority of this week, I have fallen behind schedule and plan on getting back on track this week.
Next week, I will turn my focus to the web application part of the project by integrating the code I have written already into the webapp and getting it working on there. I also plan on setting up the initial infrastructure in the webapp to send/receive information to/from the other components of our project.
