Conditional Exclusion of People

[aboulos1229]

Is it currently possible to define conditional exclusions of an individual or group of people?

If not, I’d like to present the idea of a more nuanced exclusion of individuals or groups. Specifically, I’m looking for a way to apply conditional logic to determine when a person or group of people should be excluded from Kiosk. Here's an example of the behavior I’m trying to achieve:

• Photo of a distant relative (e.g., my cousin) = exclude
• Photo of my cousin with his immediate family (his wife and child) = exclude
• Photo of my cousin with my immediate family (e.g., my wife) = include
• Photo of my cousin with his family and my wife = include
• Photos with no recognized faces = include

The key aspects of this feature would include:

1. Allowing conditional logic that blacklists certain people unless they are pictured alongside members of a “whitelisted” group (e.g., nuclear family).
2. Retaining assets without any recognized faces, such as landscapes or objects.
3. Preventing the blanket exclusion of all assets containing a given person, thereby allowing inclusion when certain conditions are met (e.g., the person is alongside specific individuals).

This would allow users to exclude portraits or group shots of distant relatives unless those relatives are included in photos with certain individuals (like immediate family members). This could allow a more fine-tuned balance between removing less relevant images while still showing meaningful ones (but i realize it could also over complicate asset selection). I wonder if the addition of a whitelist (included_people) might solve this?

1. Kiosk may select from all assets within an album.
2. Exclude assets within that album containing only individuals within excluded_people.
3. Include assets of excluded_people if they appear alongside someone within included_people.
4. Skip any asset tagged with “kiosk-skip” which overrides all other inclusion/exclusion criteria.
