CNET Declares Picasa The Winner At Facial Recognition

CNET’s Josh Lowensohn used his own mug as a standard to measure the facial recognition prowess of iPhoto, Windows Live Gallery and newcomer face-finder Picasa 3.5.

The verdict? Picasa 3.5, because it’s all about the workflow of approving or denying face matches, which Picasa makes easiest. Do you see face-to-face with Lowensohn’s assessment? How accurate is your own photo organiser at recognising your features? [CNET]

    I tried Picasa 3.5 and was blown away with the recognition! It detected my son succesfully with a 6 year gap (12 to 18) and also a friend with and without beard! Pretty impressive. Try it!
