When you change the used face recognition module, for example, replace the Cognitec module with the Viante VA module or vice versa, the biometric vectors are automatically re-generated. This is necessary because biometric vectors received by one face recognition module cannot be used by another.

The biometric vectors are also automatically re-generated when you switch the Viante SDK VA SDK version or the face recognition and search algorithm of Viante of VA and VideoIntellect 1.1 face recognition modules.

Info
titleNote

To switch between the used face recognition modules, use the VianteVA.IdentificationAlgorithm registry key (see Registry keys reference guide, for details about working with the registry, see Working with Windows OS registry).

Note
titleAttention!

Errors may occur during the biometric vectors re-generation process.

For example, the error below may occur due to the fact that the new face recognition module SDK or the algorithm of the Viante VA ALG2 face recognition module cannot recognize a face on a poor quality image and recreate a vector due to its better and more demanding recognition capabilities. Therefore, such image can be skipped.

If Intellect malfunctions after the vectors re-generation, do the following:

  1. Shutdown Intellect.
  2. Run FaceRecognitionTool.exe tool stored at: <Intellect installation folder>\Modules.
  3. Specify required settings - in the Path field specify the path to the folder where the data will be uploaded to (e.g. C:\Backup).

  4. Upload the data.

    titleNote

    Find more information on FaceRecognitionTool.exe in Face Recognition tool utility for extracting captured and reference faces from the database section.


  5. Execute the following script in the database manager (e.g. SQL Server Management Studio):

    Code Block
    languagesql
    USE [Fir]
    GO
    DECLARE	@return_value int
    EXEC	@return_value = [dbo].[spReset]
    SELECT	'Return Value' = @return_value
    GO


  6. Start Intellect and upload images from the folder specified in the Path field to the reference face database (see Selecting a way to upload an image to the reference face database).
