Provides fast, low overhead, web services for Facematch. Exposed Capabilities: Face localizer, single and multiple regions. Face ingest, single and multiple regions. Face query, single and multiple regions. Whole Image ingest and query."
Provides a fast light weight bridge between the web service and the core library with GPU acceleration. It transparently maps facematch core library capabilities to the caller. The FaceMatch service calls this module for its visual matching services.
By default this program is installed in the location C:\FacematchSL\FaceMatch\bin. To build this program you will need Visual Studio 2015.
Visual Studio 2015 CUDA 5.5 or later SDK from NVIDIA Tesla k20 or better GPU from NVIDIA .NET4 CLR OpenCV 2.4.13 or newer
On a Windows 2008R2 or Windows 2012 server do the following Install a Tesla k20 card with the following packages Install OpenCV 2.4.13 or higher at C:\OpenCV, set environment variable OpenCVHome to point to this Install CUDA 5.5 or higher SDK, set environment variable CUDA_PATH to point to this Install Visual Studio 2015 Build the FaceMatch project from source it is located here Build the FaceMatcherCore project from source it is located here . Copy the server to the above FaceMatch\bin folder. Open a command window with admin rights and register the executable with the following command “FaceMatcherCore.exe /regserver” Build the FaceMatchWebService project from source it is located here. Install the windows service. Start the FaceMatchWebService from the services control panel. This starts the web services for use.
