Abstract

Methods for performing improving facial recognition of a driver in a vehicle are disclosed. A set of images is received. Each of the set of images includes a portion that is identified as a face. The identification is based on an application of a first machine-learned model to each of the set of images. The application of the first machine-learned model is performed by an application associated with a client camera device mounted in a vehicle. Based on a determination that the set of images matches one or more reference images stored in a database with a confidence level that is equal to or greater than a confidence threshold, a person corresponding to the one or more reference images is associated as a driver of the vehicle during a time period in which the set of images was captured.
