2016/11/30 - Amazon Rekognition - 11 new api methods
Changes Update rekognition client to latest version
For a given input face ID, searches the specified collection for matching faces. You get a face ID when you add a face to the collection using the IndexFaces operation. The operation compares the features of the input face with faces in the specified collection.
The operation response returns an array of faces that match, ordered by similarity score with the highest similarity first. More specifically, it is an array of metadata for each face match that is found. Along with the metadata, the response also includes a confidence value for each face match, indicating the confidence that the specific face matches the input face.
For an example, see example3.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:SearchFaces action.

(dict) --
SearchedFaceId (string) --
ID of the face that was searched for matches in a collection.
FaceMatches (list) --
An array of faces that matched the input face, along with the confidence in the match.
(dict) --
Provides face metadata. In addition, it also provides the confidence in the match of this face with the input face.
Similarity (float) --
Confidence in the match of this face with the input face.
Face (dict) --
Describes the face properties such as the bounding box, face ID, image ID of the source image, and external image ID that you assigned.
FaceId (string) --
Unique identifier that Amazon Rekognition assigns to the face.
BoundingBox (dict) --
Identifies the bounding box around the object or face. The left (x-coordinate) and top (y-coordinate) are coordinates representing the top and left sides of the bounding box. Note that the upper-left corner of the image is the origin (0,0).
The top and left values returned are ratios of the overall image size. For example, if the input image is 700x200 pixels, and the top-left coordinate of the bounding box is 350x50 pixels, the API returns a left value of 0.5 (350/700) and a top value of 0.25 (50/200).
The width and height values represent the dimensions of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image dimension. For example, if the input image is 700x200 pixels, and the bounding box width is 70 pixels, the width returned is 0.1.
Width (float) --
Width of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image width.
Height (float) --
Height of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image height.
Left (float) --
Left coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image width.
Top (float) --
Top coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image height.
ImageId (string) --
Unique identifier that Amazon Rekognition assigns to the source image.
ExternalImageId (string) --
Identifier that you assign to all the faces in the input image.
Confidence (float) --
Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree).
Detects faces in the input image and adds them to the specified collection.
Amazon Rekognition does not save the actual faces detected. Instead, the underlying detection algorithm first detects the faces in the input image, and for each face extracts facial features into a feature vector, and stores it in the back-end database. Amazon Rekognition uses feature vectors when performing face match and search operations using the and operations.
If you provide the optional externalImageID for the input image you provided, Amazon Rekognition associates this ID with all faces that it detects. When you call the operation, the response returns the external ID. You can use this external image ID to create a client-side index to associate the faces with each image. You can then use the index to find all faces in an image.
In response, the operation returns an array of metadata for all detected faces. This includes, the bounding box of the detected face, confidence value (indicating the bounding box contains a face), a face ID assigned by the service for each face that is detected and stored, and an image ID assigned by the service for the input image If you request all facial attributes (using the detectionAttributes parameter, Rekognition returns detailed facial attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, location of eye and mount) and other facial attributes such gender. If you provide the same image, specify the same collection, and use the same external ID in the IndexFaces operation, Rekognition doesn't save duplicate face metadata.
For an example, see example2.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:IndexFaces action.

Detects faces within an image (JPEG or PNG) that is provided as input.
For each face detected, the operation returns face details including a bounding box of the face, a confidence value (that the bounding box contains a face), and a fixed set of attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, coordinates of eye and mouth), gender, presence of beard, sunglasses, etc.
The face-detection algorithm is most effective on frontal faces. For non-frontal or obscured faces, the algorithm may not detect the faces or might detect faces with lower confidence.

Confidence (float) --
Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree).
OrientationCorrection (string) --
The algorithm detects the image orientation. If it detects that the image was rotated, it returns the degrees of rotation. If your application is displaying the image, you can use this value to adjust the orientation.
For example, if the service detects that the input image was rotated by 90 degrees, it corrects orientation, performs face detection, and then returns the faces. That is, the bounding box coordinates in the response are based on the corrected orientation.
Returns metadata for faces in the specified collection. This metadata includes information such as the bounding box coordinates, the confidence (that the bounding box contains a face), and face ID. For an example, see example3.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:ListFaces action.

Response Structure
(dict) --
Faces (list) --
An array of Face objects.
(dict) --
Describes the face properties such as the bounding box, face ID, image ID of the source image, and external image ID that you assigned.
FaceId (string) --
Unique identifier that Amazon Rekognition assigns to the face.
BoundingBox (dict) --
Identifies the bounding box around the object or face. The left (x-coordinate) and top (y-coordinate) are coordinates representing the top and left sides of the bounding box. Note that the upper-left corner of the image is the origin (0,0).
The top and left values returned are ratios of the overall image size. For example, if the input image is 700x200 pixels, and the top-left coordinate of the bounding box is 350x50 pixels, the API returns a left value of 0.5 (350/700) and a top value of 0.25 (50/200).
The width and height values represent the dimensions of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image dimension. For example, if the input image is 700x200 pixels, and the bounding box width is 70 pixels, the width returned is 0.1.
Width (float) --
Width of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image width.
Height (float) --
Height of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image height.
Left (float) --
Left coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image width.
Top (float) --
Top coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image height.
ImageId (string) --
Unique identifier that Amazon Rekognition assigns to the source image.
ExternalImageId (string) --
Identifier that you assign to all the faces in the input image.
Confidence (float) --
Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree).
NextToken (string) --
If the response is truncated, Amazon Rekognition returns this token that you can use in the subsequent request to retrieve the next set of faces.
Detects instances of real-world labels within an image (JPEG or PNG) provided as input. This includes objects like flower, tree, and table; events like wedding, graduation, and birthday party; and concepts like landscape, evening, and nature. For an example, see get-started-exercise-detect-labels.
For each object, scene, and concept the API returns one or more labels. Each label provides the object name, and the level of confidence that the image contains the object. For example, suppose the input image has a lighthouse, the sea, and a rock. The response will include all three labels, one for each object.
{Name: lighthouse, Confidence: 98.4629}
{Name: rock,Confidence: 79.2097}
{Name: sea,Confidence: 75.061}
In the preceding example, the operation returns one label for each of the three objects. The operation can also return multiple labels for the same object in the image. For example, if the input image shows a flower (for example, a tulip), the operation might return the following three labels.
{Name: flower,Confidence: 99.0562}
{Name: plant,Confidence: 99.0562}
{Name: tulip,Confidence: 99.0562}
In this example, the detection algorithm more precisely identifies the flower as a tulip.
You can provide the input image as an S3 object or as base64-encoded bytes. In response, the API returns an array of labels. In addition, the response also includes the orientation correction. Optionally, you can specify MinConfidence to control the confidence threshold for the labels returned. The default is 50%. You can also add the MaxLabels parameter to limit the number of labels returned.
This is a stateless API operation. That is, the operation does not persist any data.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:DetectLabels action.
