DetectFace

最后更新时间：2023-02-27 15:22:53

1. API Description

Domain name for API request: iai.tencentcloudapi.com.

This API is used to detect the position, attributes, and quality information of a face in the given image. The position information includes (x, y, w, h); the face attributes include gender, age, expression, beauty, glass, hair, mask, and pose (pitch, roll, yaw); and the face quality information includes the overall quality score, sharpness, brightness, and completeness.

The face quality information is mainly used to evaluate the quality of the input face image. When using the Face Recognition service, we recommend evaluating the quality of the input face image first to improve the effects of subsequent processing. Application scenarios of this feature include:

  1. Creating/Adding a person in a group: this is to ensure the quality of the face information to facilitate subsequent processing.

  2. Face search: this is to ensure the quality of the input image to quickly find the corresponding person.

  3. Face verification: this is to ensure the quality of the face information to avoid cases where the verification incorrectly fails.

  4. Face fusion: this is to ensure the quality of the uploaded face images to improve the fusion effect.

  • Please use the signature algorithm v3 to calculate the signature in the common parameters, that is, set the SignatureMethod parameter to TC3-HMAC-SHA256.
We recommend you to use API Explorer
Try it
API Explorer provides a range of capabilities, including online call, signature authentication, SDK code generation, and API quick search. It enables you to view the request, response, and auto-generated examples.

2. Input Parameters

The following request parameter list only provides API request parameters and some common parameters. For the complete common parameter list, see Common Request Parameters.

Parameter Name Required Type Description
Action Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: DetectFace.
Version Yes String Common Params. The value used for this API: 2020-03-03.
Region No String Common Params. This parameter is not required for this API.
MaxFaceNum No Integer Maximum number of processable faces. Default value: 1 (i.e., detecting only the face with the largest size in the image). Maximum value: 120.
This parameter is used to control the number of faces in the image to be detected. The smaller the value, the faster the processing.
MinFaceSize No Integer Minimum height and width of face in px.
Default value: 34. We recommend keeping it at or above 34.
Faces below the MinFaceSize value will not be detected.
Image No String Base64-encoded image data, which cannot exceed 5 MB.
The long side cannot exceed 4,000 px for images in JPG format or 2,000 px for images in other formats.
PNG, JPG, JPEG, and BMP images are supported, while GIF images are not.
Url No String Image URL. The image cannot exceed 5 MB in size after being Base64-encoded.
The long side cannot exceed 4,000 px for images in JPG format or 2,000 px for images in other formats.
Either Url or Image must be provided; if both are provided, only Url will be used.
We recommend storing the image in Tencent Cloud, as a Tencent Cloud URL can guarantee higher download speed and stability.
The download speed and stability of non-Tencent Cloud URLs may be low.
PNG, JPG, JPEG, and BMP images are supported, while GIF images are not.
NeedFaceAttributes No Integer Whether the face attribute information (FaceAttributesInfo) needs to be returned. 0: no; 1: yes. Default value: 0.
If the value is not 1, it will be deemed as no need to return, and FaceAttributesInfo is meaningless in this case.
The face attribute information of up to 5 largest faces in the image will be returned, and FaceAttributesInfo of the 6th and rest faces is meaningless.
Extracting face attribute information is quite time-consuming. If face attribute information is not required, we recommend disabling this feature to speed up face detection.
NeedQualityDetection No Integer Whether to enable quality detection. 0: no; 1: yes. Default value: 0.
If the value is not 1, it will be deemed not to perform quality detection.
The face quality score information of up to 30 largest faces in the image will be returned, and FaceQualityInfo of the 31st and rest faces is meaningless.
We recommend enabling this feature for the face adding operation.
FaceModelVersion No String Algorithm model version used by the Face Recognition service.

Currently, 2.0 and 3.0 are supported.

This parameter is 3.0 by default starting from April 2, 2020. If it is left empty for accounts that used this API, 2.0 will be used by default.

The parameter can be set only to 3.0 for accounts that purchase the service after November 26, 2020.

Different algorithm model versions correspond to different face recognition algorithms. The 3.0 version has a better overall effect than the legacy version and is recommended.
NeedRotateDetection No Integer Whether to enable the support for rotated image recognition. 0: no; 1: yes. Default value: 0. When the face in the image is rotated and the image has no EXIF information, if this parameter is not enabled, the face in the image cannot be correctly detected and recognized. If you are sure that the input image contains EXIF information or the face in the image will not be rotated, do not enable this parameter, as the overall time consumption may increase by hundreds of milliseconds after it is enabled.

3. Output Parameters

Parameter Name Type Description
ImageWidth Integer Width of requested image.
ImageHeight Integer Height of requested image.
FaceInfos Array of FaceInfo Face information list, including face coordinate information, attribute information (if needed), and quality score information (if needed).
FaceModelVersion String Algorithm model version used for face recognition.
RequestId String The unique request ID, which is returned for each request. RequestId is required for locating a problem.
