Enable Body and Body Attribute Recognition

FindFace Multi allows you to recognize individual human bodies and body attributes.

The body attributes are as follows:

  • gender:

    • male;

    • female;

  • age (by group):

    • 0-16 years;

    • 17-35 years;

    • 36-50 years;

    • 50+ years;

  • clothing type:

    • generalized category of upper body wear: long sleeves, short sleeves, no sleeve;

    • specific type of upper body wear: jacket, coat, sleeveless vest, sweatshirt, T-shirt, shirt, dress;

    • type of lower body wear: pants, skirt, shorts, nondescript;

    • type of headgear: hat/cap, hood/headscarf, none;

  • clothing color (top/bottom);

  • presence of personal protective equipment (PPE):

    • PPE item: vest, helmet;

    • PPE color;

    • PPE recognition score;

  • whether a person has a bag:

    • on the back;

    • in hand(s).

Recognition of human bodies and their attributes can be configured at the installation level. This section describes how to enable body and body attribute recognition in case this step has been skipped during installation.

To enable recognition of human bodies and their attributes, do the following:

  1. Specify neural network models for body object and body attribute recognition in the /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-extraction-api/findface-extraction-api.yaml configuration file.

    Important

    Be sure to choose the right acceleration type for each model, matching the acceleration type of findface-extraction-api: CPU or GPU. Be aware that findface-extraction-api on CPU can work only with CPU-models, while findface-extraction-api on GPU supports both CPU- and GPU-models.

    1. Open the findface-extraction-api.yaml configuration file.

      sudo vi /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-extraction-api/findface-extraction-api.yaml
      
    2. Specify the body detector model in the detectors -> models section by pasting the following code:

      GPU

      detectors:
      
        ...
        models:
          ...
          body_gustav:
            aliases:
            - body
            - edie
            - shiloette
            - glen
            model: detector/body.gustav_accurate.019.gpu.fnk
            options:
              min_object_size: 32
              resolutions:
              - 256x256
              - 384x384
              - 512x512
              - 768x768
              - 1024x1024
              - 1536x1536
              - 2048x2048
        ...
      

      CPU

      detectors:
      
        ...
        models:
          ...
          body_gustav:
            aliases:
            - body
            - edie
            - shiloette
            - glen
            model: detector/body.gustav_accurate.019.cpu.fnk
            options:
              min_object_size: 32
              resolutions:
              - 256x256
              - 384x384
              - 512x512
              - 768x768
              - 1024x1024
              - 1536x1536
              - 2048x2048
        ...
      
    3. Make sure that the objects -> body section contains the quality_attribute: body_quality and the base_normalizer: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.gpu.fnk or the base_normalizer: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.cpu.fnk, depending on your acceleration type:

      GPU

      objects:
        ...
        body:
          base_normalizer: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.gpu.fnk
          quality_attribute: body_quality
        ...
      

      CPU

      objects:
        ...
        body:
          base_normalizer: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.cpu.fnk
          quality_attribute: body_quality
        ...
      
    4. Make sure that the normalizers section contains a model for the cropbbox normalizer, as shown in the example below. This normalizer is required for the extractors.

      GPU

      normalizers:
        ...
      
        models:
          ...
          cropbbox:
            model: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.gpu.fnk
          ...
      

      CPU

      normalizers:
        ...
      
        models:
          ...
          cropbbox:
            model: facenorm/cropbbox.v2.cpu.fnk
          ...
      
    5. Specify the extraction models in the extractors -> models section, subject to the extractors you want to enable:

      GPU

      extractors:
         ...
         models:
          body_action_base6: ''
          body_action_car: ''

          body_protective_equipment: pedattr/pedattr.protective.v1.gpu.fnk
          body_quality: pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.gpu.fnk
      

      CPU

      extractors:
         ...
         models:
          body_action_base6: ''
          body_action_car: ''
          body_action_fights: ''
          body_age_gender: pedattr/pedattr.age_gender.v0.cpu.fnk

          body_clothes: pedattr/pedattr.clothes_type.v0.cpu.fnk
          body_clothes34671: ''
          body_color: pedattr/pedattr.color.v1.cpu.fnk
          body_emben: pedrec/pedrec.durga.cpu.fnk
          body_fall: ''
          body_handface: ''
          body_protective_equipment: pedattr/pedattr.protective.v1.cpu.fnk
          body_quality: pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.cpu.fnk
      

      The following extractors are available:

      Extractor

      Configure as follows

      age and gender

      body_age_gender: pedattr/pedattr.age_gender.v0.gpu.fnk

      body_age_gender: pedattr/pedattr.age_gender.v0.cpu.fnk

      presence of bag

      body_clothes: pedattr/pedattr.clothes_type.v0.gpu.fnk

      body_clothes: pedattr/pedattr.clothes_type.v0.cpu.fnk

      clothing color

      body_color: pedattr/pedattr.color.v1.gpu.fnk

      body_color: pedattr/pedattr.color.v1.cpu.fnk

      individual body feature vector

      body_emben: pedrec/pedrec.durga.gpu.fnk

      body_emben: pedrec/pedrec.durga.cpu.fnk

      presence of protective equipment

      body_protective_equipment: pedattr/pedattr.protective.v1.gpu.fnk

      body_protective_equipment: pedattr/pedattr.protective.v1.cpu.fnk

      body quality

      body_quality: pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.gpu.fnk

      body_quality: pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.cpu.fnk

      Tip

      To leave a model disabled, pass the empty value '' to the relevant parameter. Do not remove the parameter itself. Otherwise, the system will be searching for the default model.

      Important

      For body recognition to work properly, the body_emben and the body_quality extractors must be enabled.

      GPU

      extractors:
         ...

          body_quality: pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.cpu.fnk
      
    6. Restart the findface-multi-findface-extraction-api-1 container.

      sudo docker container restart findface-multi-findface-extraction-api-1
      
  2. Modify the /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-video-worker/findface-video-worker.yaml configuration file.

    1. In the models section, specify the body neural network models by analogy with the example below:

      GPU

      sudo vi /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-video-worker/findface-video-worker.yaml
      
      models:
        ...
        detectors:
          ...
          body:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/detector/body.jasmine_fast.018.gpu.fnk
            min_size: 60
          ...
        normalizers:
          ...
          body_norm:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/facenorm/cropbbox.v2.gpu.fnk
          body_norm_quality:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/facenorm/cropbbox.v2.gpu.fnk
          ...
        extractors:
          ...
          body_quality:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.gpu.fnk
            normalizer: body_norm_quality
      

      CPU

      sudo vi /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-video-worker/findface-video-worker.yaml
      
      models:
        ...
        detectors:
          ...
          body:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/detector/body.jasmine_fast.018.cpu.fnk
            min_size: 60
          ...
        normalizers:
          ...
          body_norm:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/facenorm/cropbbox.v2.cpu.fnk
          body_norm_quality:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/facenorm/cropbbox.v2.cpu.fnk
          ...
        extractors:
          ...
          body_quality:
            fnk_path: /usr/share/findface-data/models/pedattr/pedattr.quality.v0.cpu.fnk
            normalizer: body_norm_quality
      
    2. Make sure that the objects -> body section is included:

      objects:
        ...
        body:
          normalizer: body_norm
          quality: body_quality
          track_features: ''
      
    3. Restart the findface-multi-findface-video-worker-1 container.

      sudo docker container restart findface-multi-findface-video-worker-1
      
  3. Open the /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-video-manager/findface-video-manager.yaml configuration file and make sure it contains the body section in detectors that looks similar to the example below.

    sudo vi /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-video-manager/findface-video-manager.yaml
    
    detectors:
      ...
      body:
        filter_min_quality: 0.6
        filter_min_size: 70
        filter_max_size: 8192
        roi: ''
        fullframe_crop_rot: false
        fullframe_use_png: false
        jpeg_quality: 95
        overall_only: true
        realtime_post_first_immediately: false
        realtime_post_interval: 1
        realtime_post_every_interval: false
        track_interpolate_bboxes: true
        track_miss_interval: 1
        track_overlap_threshold: 0.25
        track_max_duration_frames: 0
        track_send_history: false
        post_best_track_frame: true
        post_best_track_normalize: true
        post_first_track_frame: false
        post_last_track_frame: false
        tracker_type: simple_iou
        track_deep_sort_matching_threshold: 0.65
        track_deep_sort_filter_unconfirmed_tracks: true
        track_object_is_principal: false
        track_history_active_track_miss_interval: 0
    
  4. Enable recognition of bodies and body attributes in the /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-multi-legacy/findface-multi-legacy.py configuration file. Do the following:

    1. In the FFSECURITY section, set 'ENABLE_BODIES': True.

      sudo vi /opt/findface-multi/configs/findface-multi-legacy/findface-multi-legacy.py
      
      FFSECURITY = {
          ...
      
          # optional objects to detect
          'ENABLE_BODIES': True,
          ...
      
    2. To improve quality of body recognition, we recommend that you enable additional attribute analysis. In this case, the system compares not only the feature vectors of two bodies but also their attributes. A conclusion about the bodies’ match is only made if both the feature vectors and attributes of the bodies coincide.

      You can use the following attributes for additional analysis:

      • bottom_color: color of lower body wear;

      • top_color: color of upper body wear;

      • headwear: type and absence/presence of headgear;

      • detailed_upper_clothes: specific type of upper body wear, e.g., jacket;

      • upper_clothes: generalized category of upper body wear: long sleeves, short sleeves, no sleeve;

      • lower_clothes: type of lower body wear, e.g., pants;

      • helmet_type: helmet type by color, visibility, absence/presence;

      • vest_type: vest type by color, visibility, absence/presence;

      • age_group: belonging to any of four age groups: 0-16, 17-35, 36-50, 50+ years;

      • gender: male or female.

      To enable additional attribute analysis, set True in the FFSECURITY -> EXTRA_BODY_MATCHING section for the attributes that you want to compare. Set min_confidence value between 0 and 1.

      FFSECURITY = {
          # use additional features for extra confidence when matching body by emben
          'EXTRA_BODY_MATCHING': {
              'bottom_color': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'top_color': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'headwear': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'detailed_upper_clothes': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'upper_clothes': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'lower_clothes': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'helmet_type': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'vest_type': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'age_group': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
              'gender': {'enabled': False, 'min_confidence': 0},
          },
      

      Note

      Contact our technical experts (support@ntechlab.com) for advice on min_confidence optimum value.

      If you decide that you do not need additional attribute analysis, then skip this configuration and proceed to the next step.

    3. In the FFSECURITY section, specify the body attributes that you want to display for the body recognition events.

      # available features: age_gender, bags, clothes, color, protective_equipment
      'BODY_EVENTS_FEATURES': ['protective_equipment', 'age_gender', 'bags', 'color', 'clothes'],
      
    4. Restart the findface-multi-findface-multi-legacy-1 container.

      sudo docker container restart findface-multi-findface-multi-legacy-1
      
  5. In the web interface, navigate to Video Source. Select a camera in the Cameras tab (or an uploaded file in the Uploads tab, or an external detector in the corresponding tab). Navigate to the General tab. Select Bodies in the Detectors section.
