A remote image collecting to create initiative database with indexing and querying for enhance face recognition

Face recognition is the personal identification method that gaining the attention and popularity for many years. It can be seen from an increasing of applications and researches in this field. The user´s face database is a very important part for enhancing the face recognition when it was applied in the actual system. Thus, the study focused on the method for collecting user images by using web application with WebRTC technology that helps the system to be able to use with any platforms without the additional installation. Additionally, XML is used to index the images and query them back by using Path_MD algorithm to make the system be more efficiency. The system implementation result shows that remote collecting images, image indexing with XML, and image querying using Path_MD algorithm are effective and can be developed in further studies.
