1. A scholar information retrieval system, comprising:
a memory storing facial embedding vectors and associated scholar information; and
processing circuitry configured to
input a face image of a scholar,
recognize, by a facial recognition model, the face image and generate a live facial embedding,
using the live facial embedding to search in the memory to identify a matching facial embedding vector,
based on the matching facial embedding vector, determine a textual academic summary for the scholar, and
display the textual academic summary for the scholar,
wherein for each facial embedding vector, the associated scholar information includes a name, an affiliation, and a link to a webpage,
and wherein the textual academic summary for the scholar is determined by:
based on the name and the affiliation that correspond to the matching facial embedding vector, determining whether there is an available textual academic summary in a cache for storing textual academic summaries generated in a predefined time period,
upon a determination that there is the available textual academic summary in the cache, obtaining the available textual academic summary, as the textual academic summary for the scholar, and
upon a determination that there is no available textual academic summary in the cache, using the link to the webpage that corresponds to the matching facial embedding vector to generate a textual academic summary, as the textual academic summary for the scholar.
