I am trying to learn face detection and I got this code from GeeksforGeeks tutorial. However When I run one of the two files, it shows the error AttributeError: module 'cv2' has no attribute 'LBPHFaceRecognizer_create'. I tried uninstalling open cv, installing pip install opencv-contrib-python as well as reinstalling open cv and running it. I am currently running open cv2 4.5.5. The tutorial advised to remove the '.face' from cv2.face.LBPHFaceRecognizer_create()
for running cv2, however when I run it with .face, it displays module 'cv2' has no attribute 'face'. Please, someone, help me with this

I think that you may need to explicitly state "cv2.face" not just "face..."
model = cv2.face.LBPHFaceRecognizer_create()
before doing so...did you confirm that you have a version of Opencv installed that contains the module Face? You can check like this:
import cv2
functions = dir(cv2)
for f in functions:
print (f)
and if not...install like this:
pip uninstall opencv-contrib-python
pip install opencv-contrib-python
