Description

I am doing a face detection project and I found this lib is pretty awesome. So far, I am able to use the high level API, such as face_locations to get and detect faces in a given image. However, I am wondering if it's possible to get the detection score as well. concretely, the probability score of the detected area is a face. Is this possible?

What I Did

So far, I am trying to understand the APIs from the docs

Research direction

Start with the documented high-level face_locations API and the face-detection section of the linked documentation. Determine whether the current API exposes a detection probability and clarify what score output should look like; done means the requested score is clearly supported or the limitation is documented.
