续 基于开源模型的实时人脸识别系统
进行人脸识别首要的任务就是要定位出画面中的人脸，这个任务就是人脸检测。人脸检测总体上算是目标检测的一个特殊情况，但也有自身的特点，比如角度多变，表情多变，可能存在各类遮挡。早期传统的方法有Haar Cascade、HOG等，基本做法就是特征描述子+滑窗+分类器，随着2012年Alexnet的出现，慢慢深度学习在这一领域开始崛起。算法和硬件性能的发展，也让基于深度学习的人脸识别不仅性能取得了很大的提升，速度也能达到实时，使得人脸技术真正进入了实用。
人脸检测大体上跟随目标检测技术的发展，不过也有些自己的方法，主要可以分为一下几类方法.
人脸检测算法概览
由于这个系列重点并不在于算法细节本身，因而对于一些算法只是提及，有兴趣可以自己精读。
Cascade-CNN Based Models
这类方法通过级联几个网络来逐步提高准确率，比较有代表性的是MTCNN方法。
MTCNN通过级联PNet, RNet, ONet，层层过滤来提高整个检测的精度。这个方法更适合CPU，那个时期的嵌入式设备使用比较多。 由于有3个网络，训练起来比较麻烦。
R-CNN
这一块主要来源于目标检测中的RCNN, Fast RCNN, Faster RCNN
这类方法精度高，但速度相对较慢。
Single Shot Detection Models
SSD是目标检测领域比较有代表性的一个算法，与RCNN系列相比，它是one stage方法，速度比较快。基于它的用于人脸检测的代表性方法是SSH.
Feature Pyramid Network Based Models
YOLO系列
YOLO系列在目标检测领域比较成功，自然的也会用在人脸检测领域，比如tiny yolo face,yolov5face, yolov8face等，基本上每一代都会应用于人脸。
开源模型的选型
为了能够达到实时，同时也要有较好的效果，我们将目光锁定在yolo系列上，yolo在精度和速度的平衡上做的比较好，也比较易用。目前最新的是yolov8, 经过搜索，也已经有人将其用在人脸检测上了：derronqi/yolov8-face: yolov8 face detection with landmark (github.com)，
推理框架的选择
简单起见，我们选择onnxruntime，该框架既支持CPU也支持GPU, 基本满足了我们的开发要求。
yolov8-face的使用
为了减少重复工作，我们可以定义一个模型的基类, 对模型载入、推理的操作进行封装，这样就不需要每个模型都实现一遍了：
from easydict import EasyDict as edict
import onnxruntime
import threading
class BaseModel:
def __init__(self, model_path, device='cpu', **kwargs) -> None:
self.model = self.load_model(model_path, device)
self.input_layer = self.model.get_inputs()[0].name
self.output_layers = [output.name for output in self.model.get_outputs()]
self.lock = threading.Lock()
def load_model(self, model_path:str, device:str='cpu'):
available_providers = onnxruntime.get_available_providers()
if device == "gpu" and "CUDAExecutionProvider" not in available_providers:
print("CUDAExecutionProvider is not available, use CPUExecutionProvider instead")
device = "cpu"
if device == 'cpu':
self.model = onnxruntime.InferenceSession(model_path, providers=['CPUExecutionProvider'])
else:
self.model = onnxruntime.InferenceSession(model_path,providers=['CUDAExecutionProvider'])
return self.model
def inference(self, input):
with self.lock:
outputs = self.model.run(self.output_layers, {self.input_layer: input})
return outputs
def preprocess(self, **kwargs):
pass
def postprocess(self, **kwargs):
