As a biosafety precaution, the World Health Organization (WHO) introduced the wearing of face masks after the COVID-19 epidemic. This posed challenges to existing facial recognition systems, so this study was born. In this publication, we describe how to create a system that allows you to identify people from images, even when they wear a mask. The face detector in OpenCV is used in conjunction with Based on the Mobile NetV2 architecture, a classification model in this way, it is possible to determine whether the face is wearing a mask and where it is situated. To conduct face recognition, A Face Net model is used as a feature extractor and a multilayer feedforward perceptron is used for training facial recognition models using a collection of about 4000+ photographs. Of the images, 52.9 percent came with a face mask and 47.1 percent were without mask. The outcomes of the tests demonstration that determining whether or not someone is wearing a mask is 99.65% accurate. Face recognition accuracy for ten people wearing masks is 99.52 percent, whereas face recognition accuracy without masks is 99.96 percent.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
