How this classifier works

This classifier usings a Nyckel-created function and dataset to identify the number of people in the photo. The response will be, "No faces", "1 face", "12 faces", and so on. It uses a multi-model approach, first using a Nyckel classifier to identify whether there's a person, then using Nyckel's object detection tool to count the number of faces in the photograph.
