Face Mask Detection

The Face Mask Detection feature detects whether a human face on a video frame is covered by a face mask.

This feature depends on UVAP's 3D Head Pose Detection and Head Detection features, as images where the detected person is facing the camera are most suitable for detecting a face mask. In practice, face masks can be detected from multiple detections of the same person but the Face Mask Detection feature only uses a single frame.

The Face Mask Detection feature is provided by Multi-Graph Runner (MGR). For further information, see MGR.

Note: In order to improve accuracy, it is recommended to use post-processing on the results of Face Mask Detection to aggregate multiple detection results of the same person, e.g. based on tracks provided by the Tracker feature or feature vector similarity.
