+Advanced RetinaFace-based detection automatically locates and extracts faces from uploaded images with high precision.
+
+### 2. 🧠 **Feature Extraction** 
+Converts detected faces into 512-dimensional mathematical representations (embeddings) using deep convolutional neural networks.
+
+### 3. 🔍 **Similarity Matching**
+Uses cosine similarity algorithms to compare new faces against the stored database with configurable thresholds.
+
+### 4. 📊 **Confidence Analysis**
+Provides detailed confidence scores, match quality metrics, and similarity percentages for reliable results.
