All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
- Enable Nextcloud 29 and drop 27.
- Add support to authorization imaginary with key. PR #746, Issue #700. Thanks to fabalexsie.
- Add button to "Review ignored people". PR #747, Issue #735. Thanks to wronny.
- Add the sixth model to the application. Aka DlibTaguchiHog model. =) This model was trained from scratch by Taguchi Tokuji to slightly improve the bias of the original model on non-Caucasian/American people, training with a greater number of Japanese and others Asians people. It obtained a similar result in the LFW tests, slightly lower, but within the acceptable margins of error. This model should improve the behavior of the application with people with these traits.
