Researcher creates algorithm that tags your photos based on your relationships

17 sec read

A researcher has created an algorithm that uses the name and location of existing photo tags to build a “relationship graph,” where personal connections in the images are calculated. That makes it faster and more efficient at tagging pictures compared to what’s currently used.

Since 2010, Facebook has used facial recognition software to automatically tag your friends in photos. Now one researcher has come up with an algorithm that tags photos based on the relationships that people in images already have with each other.
