Research direction
Start by reviewing the face_recognition API and the webcam-related examples, then examine how face_locations and compare_faces are used. The issue asks whether closest-face detection is implemented, but it does not identify a file, entry point, or acceptance criteria, so the intended change needs clarification before implementation.

Description
- face_recognition version: latest
- Python version: 3.7
- Operating System: win 10
Description
I want to recognize only the closest face to the webcam.
How can I implement the same without calling compare_face() each time? until if another person detected OR cur_face_count != prev_face_count is TRUE.
What I Did
I found the closest face by finding max w*h value of the face_locaitons values.
IS there any implemented method available in the face_recog library to detect the closest face?
please advise.
