It would be very nice if photo's could be automatically tagged by using
face recognition techniques. All your photo's could be scanned for
people, then grouped by similarity and tagged all at once. If already
tagged people are found, they could be tagged without user intervention.

Would be very nice!

Got a library for face recognition?

I believe digikam already uses this library to perform automatic red-eye
correction...

Face Detection is easy, OpenCV does this using Haar filter. Face
recognition on the other hand is very very very hard. I am pretty
positive OpenCV doesn't have this feature, of face recognition, yet.

Although if anybody know of any other non proprietary library that
provides that support, would be interesting to have a look at that.

I had a look around the internet for something suitable, first of all
apparently IPhoto 9, I think, has this face recognition technology. But
I guess Apple just bought the company that developed it originally,
because I just can't find anything about it on the internet.

With regards to open source equivalents, there is libFace,
http://libface.sourceforge.net/index.html, but that is in preAlpha and
doesn't look it has been active for a while. Other then that, might have
to write own code for it. One of the ideas is Eigen Face.

There is also a feature request for digikam
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=146288

Maybe it could be implemented as a general approach (so other project
could use it)

Bug description:
  This feature is already present in other photo management software,
  like iPhoto or Picasa

  It would be very cool if some free software get such a feature. Maybe
