I am getting confused with opencv versions for android and for other platforms, and the facerecognition methods availability.
- As of August 2016, latest opencv available is 2.4.13. But for android, the version is 2.4.11.
- But in 2.4.11, the facerecognition is available in [experimental stuff category](http://docs.opencv.org/2.4.11/modules/contrib/doc/facerec/facerec_api.html). Because in the header of page, it is in category of
> OpenCV 2.4.11.0 documentation » OpenCV
> API Reference » contrib.
> **Contributed/Experimental Stuff** »
> FaceRecognizer - Face Recognition with> OpenCV »
- When I imported the 2.4.11 java module in android project, I was not able to create Facerecognizer object.
**Example**
> FaceRecognizer fr => createFisherFaceRecognizer()
The above code gave error. It could not resolve createFisherFaceRecognizer();
- I even tried to use the opencv 3.1.0 for android, but in that, I was not able to find the facerecognizer class itself.
**So in conclusion, as of Aug 2016, we have to use wrappers like JAVACV for face recognition projects in android. Is it correct conclusion?**
