Compares a face in the source input image with each face detected in the target input image.
Note
If the source image contains multiple faces, the service detects the largest face and compares it with each face detected in the target image.
In response, the operation returns an array of face matches ordered by similarity score in descending order. For each face match, the response provides a bounding box of the face, facial landmarks, pose details (pitch, role, and yaw), quality (brightness and sharpness), and confidence value (indicating the level of confidence that the bounding box contains a face). The response also provides a similarity score, which indicates how closely the faces match.
Note
By default, only faces with a similarity score of greater than or equal to 80% are returned in the response. You can change this value by specifying the SimilarityThreshold parameter.
CompareFaces also returns an array of faces that don't match the source image. For each face, it returns a bounding box, confidence value, landmarks, pose details, and quality. The response also returns information about the face in the source image, including the bounding box of the face and confidence value.
If the image doesn't contain Exif metadata, CompareFaces returns orientation information for the source and target images. Use these values to display the images with the correct image orientation.
Note
This is a stateless API operation. That is, data returned by this operation doesn't persist.
For an example, see get-started-exercise-compare-faces .
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:CompareFaces action.

Detects faces within an image (JPEG or PNG) that is provided as input.
For each face detected, the operation returns face details including a bounding box of the face, a confidence value (that the bounding box contains a face), and a fixed set of attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, coordinates of eye and mouth), gender, presence of beard, sunglasses, etc.
The face-detection algorithm is most effective on frontal faces. For non-frontal or obscured faces, the algorithm may not detect the faces or might detect faces with lower confidence.
Note
This is a stateless API operation. That is, the operation does not persist any data.

If you provide ["ALL"] , all facial attributes are returned but the operation will take longer to complete.
If you provide both, ["ALL", "DEFAULT"] , the service uses a logical AND operator to determine which attributes to return (in this case, all attributes).

Detects faces in the input image and adds them to the specified collection.
Amazon Rekognition does not save the actual faces detected. Instead, the underlying detection algorithm first detects the faces in the input image, and for each face extracts facial features into a feature vector, and stores it in the back-end database. Amazon Rekognition uses feature vectors when performing face match and search operations using the and operations.
If you provide the optional externalImageID for the input image you provided, Amazon Rekognition associates this ID with all faces that it detects. When you call the operation, the response returns the external ID. You can use this external image ID to create a client-side index to associate the faces with each image. You can then use the index to find all faces in an image.
In response, the operation returns an array of metadata for all detected faces. This includes, the bounding box of the detected face, confidence value (indicating the bounding box contains a face), a face ID assigned by the service for each face that is detected and stored, and an image ID assigned by the service for the input image. If you request all facial attributes (using the detectionAttributes parameter, Amazon Rekognition returns detailed facial attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, location of eye and mount) and other facial attributes such gender. If you provide the same image, specify the same collection, and use the same external ID in the IndexFaces operation, Amazon Rekognition doesn't save duplicate face metadata.
For an example, see example2 .
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:IndexFaces action.

Level of confidence in the determination.
Landmarks (list) --
Indicates the location of landmarks on the face.
(dict) --
Indicates the location of the landmark on the face.
Type (string) --
Type of the landmark.
X (float) --
x-coordinate from the top left of the landmark expressed as the ratio of the width of the image. For example, if the images is 700x200 and the x-coordinate of the landmark is at 350 pixels, this value is 0.5.
Y (float) --
y-coordinate from the top left of the landmark expressed as the ratio of the height of the image. For example, if the images is 700x200 and the y-coordinate of the landmark is at 100 pixels, this value is 0.5.
Pose (dict) --
Indicates the pose of the face as determined by its pitch, roll, and yaw.
Roll (float) --
Value representing the face rotation on the roll axis.
Yaw (float) --
Value representing the face rotation on the yaw axis.
Pitch (float) --
Value representing the face rotation on the pitch axis.
Quality (dict) --
Identifies image brightness and sharpness.
Brightness (float) --
Value representing brightness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a brighter face image.
Sharpness (float) --
Value representing sharpness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a sharper face image.
Confidence (float) --
Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree).
OrientationCorrection (string) --
The orientation of the input image (counterclockwise direction). If your application displays the image, you can use this value to correct image orientation. The bounding box coordinates returned in FaceRecords represent face locations before the image orientation is corrected.
Note
If the input image is in jpeg format, it might contain exchangeable image (Exif) metadata. If so, and the Exif metadata populates the orientation field, the value of OrientationCorrection is null and the bounding box coordinates in FaceRecords represent face locations after Exif metadata is used to correct the image orientation. Images in .png format don't contain Exif metadata.

Returns an array of celebrities recognized in the input image. The image is passed either as base64-encoded image bytes or as a reference to an image in an Amazon S3 bucket. The image must be either a PNG or JPEG formatted file. For more information, see celebrity-recognition .
RecognizeCelebrities returns the 15 largest faces in the image. It lists recognized celebrities in the CelebrityFaces list and unrecognized faces in the UnrecognizedFaces list. The operation doesn't return celebrities whose face sizes are smaller than the largest 15 faces in the image.
For each celebrity recognized, the API returns a Celebrity object. The Celebrity object contains the celebrity name, ID, URL links to additional information, match confidence, and a ComparedFace object that you can use to locate the celebrity's face on the image.
Rekognition does not retain information about which images a celebrity has been recognized in. Your application must store this information and use the Celebrity ID property as a unique identifier for the celebrity. If you don't store the celebrity name or additional information URLs returned by RecognizeCelebrities , you will need the ID to identify the celebrity in a call to the operation.
For an example, see recognize-celebrities-tutorial .
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:RecognizeCelebrities operation.
