Operating System: Ubuntu 18.04

Description

I was trying to use the algorithm to look for a face in a dir with many faces. And if it recognizes the face it just says true. I would like to also know which Image matches most with my test image.

Try this https://github.com/ageitgey/face_recognition/issues/260

@lupangxp I have pretty much, done something similar to this. However, I have a database of say 1000 images. Now I get a new face that I want to know if it exists in my database. The code returns true. But I don't know to which image in the database it returned true if you understand what I mean.

Encoding new face and compare with 1000 images use this formula https://github.com/ageitgey/face_recognition/issues/238#issuecomment-345847465

if return distance less than 0.4 this very similar face return row id for other action that you want
