We are interested in the reproducibility of face recognition system. By reproducibility we mean : is the scientific community, and are the researchers from different sides, capable of reproducing the last published results by a big company, that has at its disposal huge computational power and huge proprietary databases ? With the constant advancements in GPU computation power and availibility of open-source software, the reproducibility of published results should not be a problem. But, if architectures of the systems are private and databases are proprietary, the reproducibility of published results can not be easily attained. To tackle this problem, we focus on training and evaluation of face recognition systems on publicly available data and software. We are also interested in comparing the best Deep Neural Net (DNN) based results a baseline "classical" System. This paper exploits the OpenFace open-source system to generate a deep convolutional neural network model using publicly available datasets. We study the impact of the size of the datasets, their quality and compare the performance to a classical face recognition approach. Our focus is to have t fully reproducible model. To this end, we used publicly available datasets (FRGC, MS-celeb-IM, MOBIO, LFW) as well publicly available sofware (OpenFace) to train our model in order to do face recognition. Our best trained model achieves 97.52% accuracy on the Labelled in the Wild dataset (LFW) dataset which is lower than Google's best reported results of 99,96% but slightly better than Facebook reported result of 97,35%. We also evaluated our best model on the challenging video dataset MOBIO and report competitive results with the best reported results on this database
