Reverse-engineering facial recognition

You might want to summarize that at the top of your post, then, if you're going to submit it to HN. When it contains such nuggets as:

These masks are shadows of human beings as seen by the minds-eye of the machine-organism. These DATA-MASKS are animistic deities brought out of the algorithmic-spirit-world of the machine and into our material world, ready to tell us their secrets, or warn us of what’s to come.

It's not surprising that HN viewers are confused about what you actually did.

In any case, seems like a cool project, now that I know what it is :-).

Thanks, but btw someone else submitted this to HN I hadn't planned on fully publishing the project until a few weeks from now when my thesis is due but it was posted to medium.com so I quickly put some documentation together

There are more technical details at the bottom of that page in the form of diagrams

For some reason, I thought that green usernames (like yours) meant you were the poster. Sorry! My mistake; you can't control when someone else posts your work.

Green usernames indicate new, or "green," accounts.
