Facebook adds face detection to photo uploads

    Now tagging and sharing of photos in Facebook are easier with the new face detection algorithm. Facebook get hold of effective little features when it purchased Diwyshot. Facebook purchased the Diwyshot in April.

    Hereafter the users need not to click on the photos to select the faces. The new face detection algorithm will scan the photos and select the faces in the uploaded photo automatically. After selecting the faces in the uploaded photo the Facebook will allow the user to tag the photos with names without delay. The new face detection algorithm is seems to be simple in its current form. But Facebook states that the improvements in the face detection feature are coming.
