Abstract:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the panacea for prescriptive and predictive analytics through Machine Learning (ML) techniques, demands for computational performance, and snowballing over the decades. Pattern Recognition is increasingly demanding in AI applications that include neural networks-based machine learning. In this research, we are dealing face recognition domain of pattern recognition and person detection, popularly classified under computer vision.

Training deep-learning models are compute-intensive, and there is an industry-wide trend toward hardware specialization to improve performance. This research uses a DNN-based generic, efficient, scalable, and platform-independent framework that can be extendable across platforms. The proposed framework involves computer vision techniques suitable for unsupervised learning with low latency and high performance. The proposed framework is validated across diverse datasets, compatible and scalable across platforms, has low latency, and has a small footprint. The framework would serve as a benchmark and publish the rating parameters of response times, latencies, and accuracy that grade and differentiates various platforms.
