5 days	Switch face detection to CNN model with parallel batch processing	Ken D'Ambrosio	1	-31/+58
	- faces.py: use model="cnn" (more accurate, better at angles/small faces/poor lighting) instead of HOG; model comment explains the trade-off clearly - faces.py: accept multiple image paths; process with ThreadPoolExecutor (dlib releases GIL during C++ inference → genuine thread parallelism); output JSON dict {path: [faces]} for batch calls - update.rb: batch_detect_faces() collects all unprocessed images per directory and calls faces.py once per directory rather than once per image, avoiding repeated model load overhead - update.rb: FACES_WORKERS read from config.yml faces.workers (default 4; set to 20 in this install's config.yml on a 64-core Xeon) - update.rb: process_dir() now takes idx/total and prints [N/total] prefix on every Scanning/Skipping line for progress monitoring To monitor a long run: nohup ruby /opt/albumen/scripts/update.rb > /tmp/faces_update.log 2>&1 & tail -f /tmp/faces_update.log Resume/restart is fully safe: sentinel files are only written after atomic_write_json, so an aborted directory reruns cleanly from scratch.

5 days	Add opt-in facial recognition: detection and embedding storage	Ken D'Ambrosio	1	-0/+51
	- scripts/faces.py: Python helper using face_recognition (dlib/HOG) to detect faces and return 128-D encodings as JSON; called by update.rb - scripts/update.rb: enrich_faces() stores face boxes and encodings in album.json per image (null = not yet processed, [] = processed/none found); skips files already processed; gated on faces.enabled in config.yml - Reads CONFIG_PATH (same env var as app.rb) to check faces.enabled flag - Feature is off by default; enabled in this install via config.yml - README.md, DESIGN.md: document installation, opt-in config, data model, and planned clustering/people-management pipeline People management UI and clustering script are the next milestone.
