The demo shows an example of joint usage of several neural networks to detect student actions (sitting, standing, raising hand for the person-detection-action-recognition-0005
model and sitting, writing, raising hand, standing, turned around, lie on the desk for the person-detection-action-recognition-0006
model) and recognize people by faces in the classroom environment. The demo uses Async API for action and face detection networks. It allows to parallelize execution of face recognition and detection: while face recognition is running on one accelerator, face and action detection could be performed on another. You can use a set of the following pre-trained models with the demo:
face-detection-adas-0001
, which is a primary detection network for finding faces.landmarks-regression-retail-0009
, which is executed on top of the results from the first network and outputs a vector of facial landmarks for each detected face.person-detection-action-recognition-0005
, which is a detection network for finding persons and simultaneously predicting their current actions (3 actions - sitting, standing, raising hand).person-detection-action-recognition-0006
, which is a detection network for finding persons and simultaneously predicting their current actions (6 actions: sitting, writing, raising hand, standing, turned around, lie on the desk).person-detection-raisinghand-recognition-0001
, which is a detection network for finding students and simultaneously predicting their current actions (in contrast with the previous model, predicts only if a student raising hand or not).person-detection-action-recognition-teacher-0002
, which is a detection network for finding persons and simultaneously predicting their current actions.
On the start-up, the application reads command line parameters and loads four networks for execution on different devices depending on -m...
options family. Demo contains two parts. First part is processing faces from gallery. Second part is main detection and recognition functionality. Both parts are graphs.
Face gallery graph gets a frame performs inference of Face Detection network. ROI obtained by Face Detector are fed to the Facial Landmarks Regression network. Then landmarks are used to align faces by affine transform and feed them to the Face Recognition network. Output contains identities metrics for each face from gallery.
Main graph works with frames from input source. First steps are equal to gallery processing. These are the same operations with Face Detection, Landmarks Regression, Face Recognition networks. Besides this, graph performs Action Detection network. The recognized faces are matched with detected actions to find an action for a recognized person for each frame. Then it draws results on frame. Output contains processed frame and logs.
NOTE: By default, Open Model Zoo demos expect input with BGR channels order. If you trained your model to work with RGB order, you need to manually rearrange the default channels order in the demo application or reconvert your model using the Model Optimizer tool with the
--reverse_input_channels
argument specified. For more information about the argument, refer to When to Reverse Input Channels section of [Embedding Preprocessing Computation](@ref openvino_docs_MO_DG_Additional_Optimization_Use_Cases).
To recognize faces on a frame, the demo needs a gallery of reference images. Each image should contain a tight crop of face. You can create the gallery from an arbitrary list of images:
- Put images containing tight crops of frontal-oriented faces to a separate empty folder. Each identity must have only one image. Name images as
id_name0.png, id_name1.png, ...
. - Run the
python3 <omz_dir>/demos/smart_classroom_demo/utils/create_list.py <path_to_folder_with_images>
command, which will create afaces_gallery.json
file with list of files and identities.
For demo input image or video files you may refer to the Media Files Available for Demos section in the Open Model Zoo Demos overview.
The list of models supported by the demo is in <omz_dir>/demos/smart_classroom_demo/cpp_gapi/models.lst
