argument (.f,... ) is missing about facerec

Hi,

are you currently using the Kairos API? As mentioned in the readme file of this github repo, they announced to shut down their support for face recognition:

"Important note: Kairos decided to shut down its online demo for
diversity recognition features (see
here).

As of July 2018, the API still returns ethnicity annotations, but it
also seems as if they will not provide free access anymore. Until the
release of an official statement from Kairos, I will stop the
development of this package."

Even if there is a bug and I could fix it, at the moment I'm afraid this is not worth to spend any time on :/

Sad. I discovered it to late then. Do you know of any other free facial recognition through r? I am trying to cycle through 10k+ photos for my dissertation. My discipline is sociology and I am just a beginner data scientist with R and a little python. Any help would be awesome. Scott

I am also a sociologist by training :) depending on what you need the following package might instead be helpful for you: https://github.com/cloudyr/RoogleVision

Also, I might be able to recommend you something else if you drop me an email, but a github repo is not the right place for this.
