Face recognition OpenCV , Java

[sri harsha]

Dear friends, 

This is my first post in JAVACV form.

I have gone through various posts for face recognition. 

I found that certain steps are required (like face detection of input image, resizing of input image, training of images etc..)

 ------------------------------------

I did face detection of input images and resize them to the same size(cropping detected face)

I would like to perform face recognition as mentioned below..

facerecg(image input, image comparewith) {}

I would like to perform face recognition by simple comparison of 2 images. Is it possible to perform recognition without training the database?

I have gone through the code and didnt find a logic which does the actual recognition so that I can use it!.. Can someone please help me with this problem.

thanks..

There is a nice tutorial for that here:
