A mobilenet SSD(single shot multibox detector) based face detector with pretrained model provided, powered by tensorflow object detection api, trained by WIDERFACE dataset.
Speed, run 60fps on a nvidia GTX1080 GPU.
Memory, requires less than 364Mb GPU memory for single inference.
Robust, adapt to different poses, this feature is credit to WIDERFACE dataset, I manually cleaned the dataset to balance the precision and recall trade off.
Parallel, multiple process video processing, can inference multiple input simultaneously, I tested to process 4 videos on a single GPU card at the same time, the speed is still competitive, and there's still room to accommodate more processes.

Click Youtube to view the effect or Youku.
Click here to download the pre-trained model from google drive. Put the model under the model folder.
Put your test video (mp4 format) under the media folder, rename it as test.mp4.
At the source root
python inference_video_face.pyAfter finished the processing, find the output video at media folder.
You can see how this face detection works with your web camera.
usage:inference_usbCam_face.py (cameraID | filename)
Here is an example to use usb camera with cameraID=0.
python inference_usbCam_face.py 0Note: this script does not save video.
Please view that issue here if your output video is blank. A brief reminder is: check the input codec and check the input/output resolution, since this part is irrelevant to the algorithm, no modification will be made to master branch.
The model released by this repo. has already been merged into Deep Video Analytics / Visual Data Network.
