# redrob-verify — face

Face detection + recognition ONNX weights used by
**[redrob-verify](https://github.com/redrob-labs/redrob-verify)** (Redrob verification stack).

- Hub: [`redrob-labs/redrob-verify-face`](https://huggingface.co/redrob-labs/redrob-verify-face)
- Upstream: [OpenCV Zoo](https://github.com/opencv/opencv_zoo) (Apache-2.0)
- Code: `services/face/` in the GitHub repo

## Files

| File | Model | Role |
|------|--------|------|
| `face_detection_yunet_2023mar.onnx` | YuNet | Face detection |
| `face_recognition_sface_2021dec.onnx` | SFace | Face embedding / match |

These are the same Apache-2.0 Zoo artifacts redrob-verify fetches by default.
Republished here so a single Hugging Face download path can bootstrap the stack
without depending on GitHub `raw` URLs.

## Intended use

Detect faces and compare embeddings for the redrob-verify face service
(`face.backend: sface`). Typical use: selfie vs ID-document face for KYC-style flows.

## Download

```bash
# From the redrob-verify checkout (preferred)
./tools/fetch_models.sh

# Or Hub only
huggingface-cli download redrob-labs/redrob-verify-face \
  --local-dir models/face
```

Place files under `models/face/` as named above (see `config.yaml` `face.sface.*`).
