 ABSTRACT

Gl obal pandemic COVID-1 9 ci rcumsta nces emerged in an epidemic of

dange rou s disease in all over t he world. Weari ng a face mask will hel p
prevent the spread of infection and pre vent the individual from
contracting any airborne infectious germs. Using Face Mask Detection
System, one can monitor if the peo ple are weari ng masks or not.

Here HAAR-CASACADE algorithm is used for image detection. Collating

with ot her exi sti ng a lgorithms, this classifie r produces a high rec ognition
rat e e ve n wit h v a ryi n g e xpres si o ns, effi ci ent feat ure s ele c ti o n a nd l ow
assortment of false positi ve features. HAAR feature-based cascade
classifier system utili zes o nly 200 features out of 6000 features to yield a
recogni tion rate of 85 -95%.

According to this motivation we demand mask detection as a unique and

public health se rvice system during the global pandemic COVID-19
e pidem ic . The m ode l i s t ra ine d by f ace m as k i ma ge a nd non-fa ce ma sk
i ma ge .

After the breakout of the worldwide pa nde mic COVID-19, the re arises a
se vere need of protection mechani sms, face mask being the primary one.
According to the World Health Organization, the corona virusCOVID-19
pande mic is causing a global health epidemic, and the most succe ssful
safet y measu re is wearing a face mas k i n p ublic p laces. Convolutio nal
Neural Networks (C NNs) have develope d themselves as a dominant class
of image recognition models. The aim of this re searc h i s to e xamine and
test machine learning capabilities for detecting and recognize face masks
worn by people in an y given video o r picture or in real t ime. Th is project
develops a real -time, GUI-based automat ic Face detection and recogn ition
system. It can be used as an entry management de vice by registe ring an
organization's employees or students with their faces, and then
reco gni zing i ndi vidual s whe n t he y approac h or l ea ve the pre m ises b y

V
recording their photographs with faces.The proposed methodology makes
uses of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and HAAR Cascade
Al gorithm. Based on t he performa nce and accurac y of our model, the
result of the binary classifier will be indicated showing a gree n rectangle
superi mposed a round the section of the face indicating that the pe rson at
t he camera is wearing a mask, or a re d rectan gle i ndicat ing that the
person on camera is no t wearing a mask alo ng with face ident ification of
t he person.
