Description

Humans often change overtime. Hair style changes, clothing changes, bruises and cuts appear and skin wrinkles.

The issue i have had with howdy is that my beard throws the detection off.

Is it possible that, if it detects a well matching face, that howdy will remake the model with the addition of the new data. So that howdy will be able to grow a "life cycle" of your face, such as in my case the growth and removal of my beard

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how to implement incremental training for the facial recognition model, possibly by saving new face encodings and periodically retraining or using online learning techniques. Consider using dlib's reshape or opencv's LBPH for incremental updates.
