Morphology
The meaning 'the process of identifying a person by their face' is directly derivable from combining 'facial' (related to the face) and 'recognition' (identification). This noun-noun compound follows a transparent compositional pattern found across many languages, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents can readily infer the MWE's meaning.
Etymology
Facial recognition paints a simple picture: facial means the face and recognition means knowing or matching. Imagine someone checking a photo ID and comparing the face to the real person, and computers do the same by matching a live face to a stored image, so the term means 'to identify or verify' someone.
