/**
@brief Minimum Average Correlation Energy Filter
    useful for authentication with (cancellable) biometrical features.
    (does not need many positives to train (10-50), and no negatives at all, also robust to noise/salting)

    see also: @cite Savvides04

    this implementation is largely based on: https://code.google.com/archive/p/pam-face-authentication (GSOC 2009)

    use it like:
    @code

    Ptr<face::MACE> mace = face::MACE::create(64);

    vector<Mat> pos_images = ...
    mace->train(pos_images);

    Mat query = ...
    bool same = mace->same(query);

    @endcode

    you can also use two-factor authentication, with an additional passphrase:

    @code
    String owners_passphrase = "ilikehotdogs";
    Ptr<face::MACE> mace = face::MACE::create(64);
    mace->salt(owners_passphrase);
    vector<Mat> pos_images = ...
    mace->train(pos_images);

    // now, users have to give a valid passphrase, along with the image:
    Mat query = ...
    cout << "enter passphrase: ";
    string pass;
    getline(cin, pass);
    mace->salt(pass);
    bool same = mace->same(query);
    @endcode

    save/load your model:
    @code
    Ptr<face::MACE> mace = face::MACE::create(64);
    mace->train(pos_images);
    mace->save("my_mace.xml");

    // later:
    Ptr<MACE> reloaded = MACE::load("my_mace.xml");
    reloaded->same(some_image);
    @endcode
