Face Detection for Video Surveillance-Based Security Systems

This paper is devoted to the study of face detection methods MTCNN, FaceBoxes, DSFD, RetinaFace, CenterFace, and SCRFD and aims to select the most suitable one for an enterprise security system based on employee face recognition from video surveillance cameras. The time costs of these methods and their robustness to geometric scale distortions and rotations in different planes have been analyzed. For the experiments, custom datasets have been created. Particular attention has been paid to the compromise between the speed and accuracy of the considered methods for their use as the first stage of a security system based on face recognition in a video stream.

The conducted research has shown that RetinaFace-MobileNet0.25, FaceBoxes, SCRFD-500MF, CenterFace were the fastest; RetinaFaceResNet125, DSFD, RetinaFaceMobileNet0.25 were the most robust to face rotation; almost all models were robust to changes in the face size. Also, when choosing the most suitable face detection method to apply for a security system, the presence of landmarks was taken into account, as well as the fact that the recognition methods used at the next stage have their limitations in terms of robustness to changes in scale and rotation. Considering the above requirements, it was decided to use the RetinaFaceMobileNet0.25 method in the pipeline of the security system as the first stage for face detection.
