FaceDetector class

Detects human faces in images.

Implemented types

Constructors

FaceDetector()
Creates a new instance of the FaceDetector class.
FaceDetector.fromHandle(Pointer<id3FaceDetector> handle)
Creates a new instance of the FaceDetector class.

Properties

confidenceThreshold int
Confidence threshold, in the range 0;100. Hint: Default value is 50. Note: Setting a high threshold reduces false detection but can increase the number of undetected faces.
getter/setter pair
handle Pointer<id3FaceDetector>
Gets the native handle. return The native handle.
no setter
hashCode int
The hash code for this object.
no setterinherited
model FaceModel
Model used to detect and track faces. Hint: Default value is FaceDetector4A which is the best available algorithm in this SDK in terms of accuracy. Some better accuracy/speed balances can be found by choosing another model.
getter/setter pair
nmsIouThreshold int
Non-maximum suppression (NMS) intersection-over-union (IOU) threshold, in the range is 0;100. Hint: Default value is 40. Note: Setting a high threshold allows to detect more overlapping faces which can be useful in a multi-face scenario. On the contrary, in a portrait scenario, a low NMS IOU threshold should be preferred.
getter/setter pair
processingUnit ProcessingUnit
Processing unit where to run the detection process. Hint: Default value is CPU.
getter/setter pair
runtimeType Type
A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
threadCount int
Number of threads to be used for face detection. Hint: Default value is 1. Allocating more than one thread can increase the speed of the process.
getter/setter pair

Methods

detectFaces(Image image) DetectedFaceList
Detects faces in an image and store their info in a DetectedFaceList object. Note: The algorithm searches for faces in the range (16px;512px). If the image is too large to fit this range, one must resize it before the detection process. Important: Loading a FaceDetector model is required to use this function.
dispose() → void
Releases all resources used by this FaceDetector.
getConfidenceThreshold() int
Gets the confidence threshold, in the range (0;100). Hint: Default value is 50. Note: Setting a high threshold reduces false detection but can increase the number of undetected faces.
getModel() FaceModel
Gets the model used to detect and track faces. Hint: Default value is FaceDetector4A which is the best available algorithm in this SDK in terms of accuracy. Some better accuracy/speed balances can be found by choosing another model.
getNmsIouThreshold() int
Gets the non-maximum suppression (NMS) intersection-over-union (IOU) threshold, in the range is (0;100). Hint: Default value is 40. Note: Setting a high threshold allows to detect more overlapping faces which can be useful in a multi-face scenario. On the contrary, in a portrait scenario, a low NMS IOU threshold should be preferred.
getProcessingUnit() ProcessingUnit
Gets the processing unit where to run the detection process. Hint: Default value is CPU.
getThreadCount() int
Gets the number of threads to be used for face detection. Hint: Default value is 1. Allocating more than one thread can increase the speed of the process.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic
Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
setConfidenceThreshold(int confidenceThreshold) → void
Sets the confidence threshold, in the range (0;100). Hint: Default value is 50. Note: Setting a high threshold reduces false detection but can increase the number of undetected faces.
setModel(FaceModel model) → void
Sets the model used to detect and track faces. Hint: Default value is FaceDetector4A which is the best available algorithm in this SDK in terms of accuracy. Some better accuracy/speed balances can be found by choosing another model.
setNmsIouThreshold(int nmsIouThreshold) → void
Sets the non-maximum suppression (NMS) intersection-over-union (IOU) threshold, in the range is (0;100). Hint: Default value is 40. Note: Setting a high threshold allows to detect more overlapping faces which can be useful in a multi-face scenario. On the contrary, in a portrait scenario, a low NMS IOU threshold should be preferred.
setProcessingUnit(ProcessingUnit processingUnit) → void
Sets the processing unit where to run the detection process. Hint: Default value is CPU.
setThreadCount(int threadCount) → void
Sets the number of threads to be used for face detection. Hint: Default value is 1. Allocating more than one thread can increase the speed of the process.
toString() String
A string representation of this object.
inherited
trackFaces(Image image, DetectedFaceList detectedFaceList) → void
Tracks faces in an image and update their info in a DetectedFaceList object. In a realtime process, one must use this function instead of DetectFaces() to keep the face IDs stable in time. Note: The algorithm searches for faces in the range (16px;512px). If the image is too large to fit this range, one must resize it before the detection process. Important: Loading a FaceDetector model is required to use this function. Warning: This function is deprecated: use the FaceTracker module instead.
warmUp(int imageWidth, int imageHeight) → void
Gets the face detector module ready to work on a specific image size by initializing all its internal memory layout. This function can be called after setting all the parameters of the face detector module if the image size is fixed, for example using frames from a video stream. Calling this function is not mandatory as the internal memory layout is automatically initialized in the first call to detectFaces() or trackFaces() if missing. Important: Loading a FaceDetector model is required to use this function.
