Abstract
Disclosed are systems and methods related to facial recognition. An image of a subject can be captured via a camera on a mobile device. The image can be classified according to a device type, whether the image is captured indoors or outdoors, and a standoff distance. Facial features can be extracted from the image based on the image category. The facial features can be compared with a predefined set of facial features in a database. An identification of the subject can be made in response to the comparison.
