Description

I want to suggest the implementation of PyramidBox algorithm for face detection, it has higher accuracy than the previous state-of-the-art approaches, it can find partially occluded faces, low quality and blurred faces all in in harsh uncontrolled environments.

this is the paper, https://arxiv.org/abs/1803.07737

Thanks!

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; begin by locating the repository's existing face-detection implementation and reviewing the PyramidBox paper linked in the issue. Done would mean integrating the proposed algorithm and demonstrating improved detection for partially occluded, low-quality, blurred faces in uncontrolled environments.
