FaceNet

Model Description

facenet uses an Inception Residual Masking Network pretrained on VGGFace2 to classify facial identities. Facenet also exposes a 512 latent facial embedding space.

Model Details

• Model Type: Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)
• Architecture: Inception Residual masking network. Output layer classifies facial identities. Also provides a 512 dimensional representation layer
• Input Size: 112 x 112 pixels
• Framework: PyTorch

Model Sources

• Repository: GitHub Repository
• Paper: FaceNet: A Unified Embedding for Face Recognition and Clustering
