AI is not tagging a player wearing sunglasses

💻 Environment/Context

  • Teams & Players
  • AI Tagging
  • Media Library

 

❓ Issue/Question

  • A player who appears in recently uploaded media isn't tagged, and he is wearing sunglasses in the media
  • Can we re-run AI here? The player is not found
  • What's the recommended approach to help AI recognize athletes that often wear glasses on the uploaded pictures?
  • Would uploading player profile pictures with both glasses and without them help?

 

👌 Resolution/Answer

  • Tag the player manually
    • Open the media where the player isn't tagged and check whether they are wearing sunglasses
    • Select all the media where the player appears
    • Apply the player tag to all of them at once
  • Improve tagging for athletes who often wear sunglasses
    • Keep a single headshot without glasses on the player profile — uploading images with both glasses and without them is not recommended, as the AI cannot determine which face to prioritize
    • If you upload substantial volumes of media featuring athletes in sunglasses, use IPTC metadata parsing as the primary player tagging method
      • Reach out to your Customer Success Manager for the implementation details

 

🥚 Cause

  • Recognizing the faces of athletes wearing sunglasses is a known limitation of the AI
