# Set Up and Train Image Recognition Models

(Applies to the Image Server and Video Server components.)

The Models page in the Control menu allows you to create models to use for image recognition, and to select training images for those models. The `Train` action performs this action. For information about this action, see the Image Server Reference and the Video Server Reference.

Note: You must set up a database before you train models for that database; see Create a Database for more information.

Use the following procedure to set up and train a model.

To set up and train a model

1. In the Database list, click the database that you want to add the model to.

2. Click New Model.

   The Train New Face Model dialog box opens.

3. In the Unique Name field, type a unique name for the model (for example, `John_Smith_04634`).

4. In the Name field, type a name for the model (for example, `John_Smith`).

   Note: The name does not have to be unique.

5. Click Choose Files, then browse to the location of the image or document that you want to use to train the model.
