In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Exadel CompreFace on Ubuntu Server Latest. Exadel CompreFace is an open-source facial recognition system that is capable of facial detection, verification, and identification. It has a user-friendly interface and supports various programming languages and frameworks.

Prerequisites

  • A server or a virtual machine with Ubuntu Server Latest installed.
  • Root privileges or sudo access to the server.
  • Access to the internet to download packages.

Step 1: Install Docker

Exadel CompreFace is distributed as a Docker container. Therefore, we need to install Docker on our system. Follow the steps below to install Docker.

  1. Update the package repository and install the required packages.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install apt-transport-https ca-certificates curl gnupg lsb-release
  1. Import Docker's official GPG key.
curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo gpg --dearmor -o /usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg
  1. Add the Docker repository to APT sources.
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/docker-archive-keyring.gpg] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/docker.list > /dev/null
  1. Update the package repository and install Docker.
sudo apt update
sudo apt install docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io
  1. Verify that Docker is installed by checking its version.
docker version

Step 2: Obtain CompreFace image

  1. Pull the CompreFace image from the Docker repository.
sudo docker pull exadelface/compre-face:1.4.3

Step 3: Run CompreFace container

  1. Run the CompreFace container.
sudo docker run --name compre-face -p 8000:8000 -v /path/to/data:/app/data -d exadelface/compre-face:1.4.3
  • --name specifies the name of the container as compre-face.
  • -p specifies the port mapping between the host and the container. By default, CompreFace's web interface is accessible at port 8000.
  • -v specifies the volume mapping between the host and the container. This option mounts the data directory of the container to /path/to/data on the host.
  • -d runs the container in the background.
  1. Verify that CompreFace is running by checking the container logs.
sudo docker logs compre-face
  1. Access CompreFace's web interface by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<your-server-ip>:8000.

Conclusion

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Exadel CompreFace on Ubuntu Server Latest using Docker. You can now use CompreFace to perform facial recognition tasks.
