## Details

Overview of the DeepFace library's abstract components, focusing on the Core Processing Engine and its interactions with fundamental modules for facial analysis.

### Core Processing Engine [[Expand]](./Core_Processing_Engine.md)
The central orchestrator of the DeepFace library, responsible for coordinating and executing all high-level face-related tasks. It integrates and manages the execution flow between specialized modules for face detection, facial representation, verification, recognition, demography analysis, and real-time streaming, ensuring a cohesive and efficient facial analysis pipeline. It acts as the "brain" that ties together the various deep learning functionalities.
