Face detection – An overview and comparison of different solutions

I've tinkered with face recognition in the past days, and am now waiting for a response to my GCE quota request for a V100 GPU. $8/h rate for a preemptible instance seems really cheap, yet I am not sure if I will ever be able to process my dataset.

Does anyone have a clue on how much it will cost to detect faces and extract 128d encodings from ~100M of 200x200 photos?

PixLab do offer quota based monthly plans for such task including standard face detection, shape extraction, gender, age and emotion pattern extraction. They do charge $0.9 per 1000 requests after you reach your monthly quota (1.1M API calls).

Woah, that would be $80k to process my dataset. I'll try renting hardware instead.

Not that much. Contact them and they will bring back with an offer adequate to your dataset and budget.
