1. API Description

Domain name for API request: iai.tencentcloudapi.com.

This API is used to recognize top K persons in one or more groups who are similar to the person in a given image, display the results by group, and rank the similarity within each group in descending order.

Up to 10 faces in the image can be recognized at a time, and cross-group search is supported.

The maximum number of faces in groups that can be searched for at a time is subject to the group's algorithm model version (FaceModelVersion), which is 1 million for v2.0 or 3 million for v3.0.

This API recognizes each face image of a person as an independent one. By contrast, the SearchPersons and SearchPersonsReturnsByGroup APIs fuse the features of all face images of a person; for example, if a person has 4 face images, they will fuse the features of the 4 face images and generate the summarized facial features of the person to make the search more accurate.

This API should be used together with Group Management APIs.

  • Please use the signature algorithm v3 to calculate the signature in the common parameters, that is, set the SignatureMethod parameter to TC3-HMAC-SHA256.
  • You cannot search for groups using different algorithm model versions (FaceModelVersion) at a time.
We recommend you to use API Explorer
Try it
API Explorer provides a range of capabilities, including online call, signature authentication, SDK code generation, and API quick search. It enables you to view the request, response, and auto-generated examples.

2. Input Parameters

The following request parameter list only provides API request parameters and some common parameters. For the complete common parameter list, see Common Request Parameters.

Parameter Name Required Type Description
Action Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: SearchFacesReturnsByGroup.
Version Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: 2020-03-03.
Region No String Common Params. This parameter is not required for this API.
GroupIds.N Yes Array of String List of groups to be searched in (up to 60). The array element value is the GroupId in the CreateGroup API.
You cannot search for groups using different algorithm model versions (FaceModelVersion) at a time.
Image No String Base64-encoded image data, which cannot exceed 5 MB.
The long side cannot exceed 4,000 px for images in JPG format or 2,000 px for images in other formats.
PNG, JPG, JPEG, and BMP images are supported, while GIF images are not.
Url No String Image URL. The image cannot exceed 5 MB in size after being Base64-encoded.
The long side cannot exceed 4,000 px for images in JPG format or 2,000 px for images in other formats.
Either Url or Image must be provided; if both are provided, only Url will be used.
We recommend storing the image in Tencent Cloud, as a Tencent Cloud URL can guarantee higher download speed and stability.
The download speed and stability of non-Tencent Cloud URLs may be low.
PNG, JPG, JPEG, and BMP images are supported, while GIF images are not.
MaxFaceNum No Integer Maximum number of recognizable faces. Default value: 1 (i.e., detecting only the face with the largest size in the image). Maximum value: 10.
MaxFaceNum is used to control the number of faces to be searched for if there are multiple faces in the input image to be recognized.
For example, if the input image in Image or Url contains multiple faces and MaxFaceNum is 5, top 5 faces with the largest size in the image will be recognized.
MinFaceSize No Integer Minimum height and width of face in px. Default value: 34. A value below 34 will affect the search accuracy. We recommend setting this parameter to 80.
MaxPersonNumPerGroup No Integer Detected faces, which is corresponding to the maximum number of returned most matching persons. Default value: 5. Maximum value: 10.
For example, if MaxFaceNum is 3, MaxPersonNumPerGroup is 5, and the GroupIds length is 3, up to 45 (3 * 5 * 3) persons will be returned.
NeedPersonInfo No Integer Whether to return person details. 0: no; 1: yes. Default value: 0. Other values will be considered as 0 by default.
QualityControl No Integer Image quality control.
0: no control.
1: low quality requirement. The image has one or more of the following problems: extreme blurriness, covered eyes, covered nose, and covered mouth.
2: average quality requirement. The image has at least three of the following problems: excessive brightness, excessive dimness, blurriness or average blurriness, covered eyebrows, covered cheeks, and covered chin.
3: high-quality requirement. The image has one to two of the following problems: excessive brightness, excessive dimness, average blurriness, covered eyebrows, covered cheeks, and covered chin.
4: very high-quality requirement. The image is optimal in all dimensions or only has a slight problem in one dimension.
Default value: 0.
If the image quality does not meet the requirement, the returned result will prompt that the detected image quality is unsatisfactory.
FaceMatchThreshold No Float In the output parameter Score, the result will be returned only if the result value is greater than or equal to the FaceMatchThreshold value.
Default value: 0.
Value range: [0.0,100.0).
NeedRotateDetection No Integer Whether to enable the support for rotated image recognition. 0: no; 1: yes. Default value: 0. When the face in the image is rotated and the image has no EXIF information, if this parameter is not enabled, the face in the image cannot be correctly detected and recognized. If you are sure that the input image contains EXIF information or the face in the image will not be rotated, do not enable this parameter, as the overall time consumption may increase by hundreds of milliseconds after it is enabled.

3. Output Parameters
