# FaceGroupAnalyzer.State

The current processing state of a face group analyzer.

```
enum State
```

## Overview

This type describes whether the analyzer’s face
cluster assignments are up to date. Read [`state`](/documentation/MediaIntelligence/FaceGroupAnalyzer/state-swift.property)
to check the current value before deciding whether to call
[`update(subprogress:)`](/documentation/MediaIntelligence/FaceGroupAnalyzer/update(subprogress:)).

## Topics

### States

[`case ready`](/documentation/MediaIntelligence/FaceGroupAnalyzer/State-swift.enum/ready)

A state that indicates all faces have up-to-date cluster assignments.

[`case stale`](/documentation/MediaIntelligence/FaceGroupAnalyzer/State-swift.enum/stale)

A state that indicates new faces need cluster assignments.

[`case updating`](/documentation/MediaIntelligence/FaceGroupAnalyzer/State-swift.enum/updating)

A state that indicates the clustering algorithm is running.
