Besides video resolution, the quality and representative faces part of the face collections to search has major impact. Using multiple face instances per person with variations like beard, glasses, poses (profile and frontal) will significantly improve the performance. Typically very fast moving people may experience low recall. In addition, blurred videos may also experience lower quality.
What is Celebrity Recognition?
Celebrity Recognition
Amazon Rekognition | Machine Learning
Amazon Rekognition’s Celebrity Recognition is a deep learning based easy-to-use API for detection and recognition of individuals who are famous, noteworthy, or prominent in their field. The RecognizeCelebrities API has been built to operate at scale and recognize celebrities across a number of categories, such as politics, sports, business, entertainment, and media. Our Celebrity Recognition feature is ideal for customers who need to index and search their digital image libraries for celebrities based on their particular interest.
Who can be identified by the Celebrity Recognition API?
Celebrity Recognition
Amazon Rekognition | Machine Learning
Amazon Rekognition can only identify celebrities that the deep learning models have been trained to recognize. Please note that the RecognizeCelebrities API is not an authority on, and in no way purports to be, an exhaustive list of celebrities. The feature has been designed to include as many celebrities as possible, based on the needs and feedback of our customers. We are constantly adding new names, but the fact that Celebrity Recognition does not recognize individuals that may be deemed prominent by any other groups or by our customers is not a reflection of our opinion of their celebrity status. If you would like to see additional celebrities identified by Celebrity Recognition, please submit feedback.
Can a celebrity identified through the Amazon Rekognition API request to be removed from the feature?

What sources are supported to provide additional information about a Celebrity ?

The API supports an optional list of sources to provide additional information about the celebrity as a part of the API response. We currently provide the IMDB URL, when it is available. We may add other sources at a later date.
How is Celebrity Recognition different for video analysis?

With Rekognition Video, you can detect and recognize when and where well known persons appear in a video. The time-coded output includes the name and unique id of the celebrity, bounding box coordinates, confidence score, and URLs pointing to related content for the celebrity, for example, the celebrity’s IMDB link. The celebrity is also detected even if sometimes the face becomes occluded in the video. This feature allows you to index and search digital video libraries for use cases related to your specific marketing and media needs.
