I’m looking for something that will let me train a model based on some prior input (a folder of images) and give me a level of certainty that a face is a match for that person. Does anything like this exist yet in Processing? I know OF has a great lib for this at [https://github.com/antimodular/ofxFaceRecognizer](https://github.com/antimodular/ofxFaceRecognizer)

Any guidance is appreciated. Thank you!
