RECOGNIZING MASKED FACES USING Single Shot Detectors (SSD) and CNN

Using the pretrained OpenCV’s deep learning face detector which is based on the Single Shot Detector (SSD) framework with a ResNet base network and CNN + Binary Classifier trained on RMFD dataset, the program identifies whether people are wearing a mask.
