Service: Indexing of Government photos for better identification on photos using facial recognition

Responsible organisation: Government’s Information and Press service (Central-Government)

The Government’s Information and Press service has an enormous media library of political photos belonging to the Luxembourg State. Until now, the work on indexing these photos, carried out manually, has been fastidious and time consuming. The AI project aimed to identify the politicians on these photos using facial recognition and generate improved metadata for the media library. Setting up this facial recognition has allowed to facilitate and accelerate the provision of the photos’ metadata, which in turn resulted in better use of the media library’s content, for the benefit of the State as a whole.
