Pretrained MobileNet

The MobileNet architecture is used as the base model, with additional layers to fit the Siamese model structure. The MobileNet used is within the TensorFlow framework.

Usage

Follow these steps to set up and use the face recognition system:

Train Your Model:

• Use the provided Jupyter notebook to train your model. Make sure you have downloaded and prepared the dataset as described in the Dataset section.
