I want to create an android Application which compares two images or more specifically two faces. The idea of the app is: It uses ML Kit to recognize face and then stores that image in firebase database and afterwards when the app encounters the same face it shows a match. I have accomplished the detecting part just need help in the later part which is matching the images. Please help if possible.

Firebase ML Kit's built-in models only performs face detection. It does not recognize faces. So you won't be able to use a built-in model for this.

If you want to recognize the face, and be able to compare it to the previously found face, you'll have to train and use your own custom model for this.
