Amazon Rekognition

2023/05/04 - Amazon Rekognition - 6 updated api methods

Changes  This release adds a new attribute FaceOccluded. Additionally, you can now select attributes individually (e.g. ["DEFAULT", "FACE_OCCLUDED", "AGE_RANGE"] instead of ["ALL"]), which can reduce response time.

Detects faces within an image that is provided as input.

DetectFaces detects the 100 largest faces in the image. For each face detected, the operation returns face details. These details include a bounding box of the face, a confidence value (that the bounding box contains a face), and a fixed set of attributes such as facial landmarks (for example, coordinates of eye and mouth), pose, presence of facial occlusion, and so on.

The face-detection algorithm is most effective on frontal faces. For non-frontal or obscured faces, the algorithm might not detect the faces or might detect faces with lower confidence.

You pass the input image either as base64-encoded image bytes or as a reference to an image in an Amazon S3 bucket. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing image bytes is not supported. The image must be either a PNG or JPEG formatted file.

This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:DetectFaces action.

type Image:

dict

param Image:

[REQUIRED]

The input image as base64-encoded bytes or an S3 object. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing base64-encoded image bytes is not supported.

If you are using an AWS SDK to call Amazon Rekognition, you might not need to base64-encode image bytes passed using the Bytes field. For more information, see Images in the Amazon Rekognition developer guide.

  • Bytes (bytes) --

    Blob of image bytes up to 5 MBs. Note that the maximum image size you can pass to DetectCustomLabels is 4MB.

  • S3Object (dict) --

    Identifies an S3 object as the image source.

    • Bucket (string) --

      Name of the S3 bucket.

    • Name (string) --

      S3 object key name.

    • Version (string) --

      If the bucket is versioning enabled, you can specify the object version.

type Attributes:

list

param Attributes:

An array of facial attributes you want to be returned. A DEFAULT subset of facial attributes - BoundingBox, Confidence, Pose, Quality, and Landmarks - will always be returned. You can request for specific facial attributes (in addition to the default list) - by using [ "DEFAULT", "FACE_OCCLUDED"] or just [ "FACE_OCCLUDED"]. You can request for all facial attributes by using [ "ALL"]. Requesting more attributes may increase response time.

If you provide both, ["ALL", "DEFAULT"], the service uses a logical "AND" operator to determine which attributes to return (in this case, all attributes).

Response Structure

  • (dict) --

    • FaceDetails (list) --

      Details of each face found in the image.

      • (dict) --

        Structure containing attributes of the face that the algorithm detected.

        A FaceDetail object contains either the default facial attributes or all facial attributes. The default attributes are BoundingBox, Confidence, Landmarks, Pose, and Quality.

        GetFaceDetection is the only Amazon Rekognition Video stored video operation that can return a FaceDetail object with all attributes. To specify which attributes to return, use the FaceAttributes input parameter for StartFaceDetection. The following Amazon Rekognition Video operations return only the default attributes. The corresponding Start operations don't have a FaceAttributes input parameter:

        • GetCelebrityRecognition

        • GetPersonTracking

        • GetFaceSearch

        The Amazon Rekognition Image DetectFaces and IndexFaces operations can return all facial attributes. To specify which attributes to return, use the Attributes input parameter for DetectFaces. For IndexFaces, use the DetectAttributes input parameter.

        • Emotions (list) --

          The emotions that appear to be expressed on the face, and the confidence level in the determination. The API is only making a determination of the physical appearance of a person's face. It is not a determination of the person’s internal emotional state and should not be used in such a way. For example, a person pretending to have a sad face might not be sad emotionally.

          • (dict) --

            The emotions that appear to be expressed on the face, and the confidence level in the determination. The API is only making a determination of the physical appearance of a person's face.

            • X (float) --

              The x-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the width of the image. The x-coordinate is measured from the left-side of the image. For example, if the image is 700 pixels wide and the x-coordinate of the landmark is at 350 pixels, this value is 0.5.

            • Y (float) --

              The y-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the height of the image. The y-coordinate is measured from the top of the image. For example, if the image height is 200 pixels and the y-coordinate of the landmark is at 50 pixels, this value is 0.25.

        • Pose (dict) --

          Indicates the pose of the face as determined by its pitch, roll, and yaw. Default attribute.

          • Roll (float) --

            Value representing the face rotation on the roll axis.

          • Yaw (float) --

          Identifies image brightness and sharpness. Default attribute.

          • Brightness (float) --

            Value representing brightness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a brighter face image.

          • Sharpness (float) --

            Value representing sharpness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a sharper face image.

        • Confidence (float) --

          Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree). Default attribute.

        • FaceOccluded (dict) --

          FaceOccluded should return "true" with a high confidence score if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. FaceOccluded should return "false" with a high confidence score if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

          • Value (boolean) --

            True if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. False if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

          • Confidence (float) --

            The confidence that the service has detected the presence of a face occlusion.

    • OrientationCorrection (string) --

      The value of OrientationCorrection is always null.

      If the input image is in .jpeg format, it might contain exchangeable image file format (Exif) metadata that includes the image's orientation. Amazon Rekognition uses this orientation information to perform image correction. The bounding box coordinates are translated to represent object locations after the orientation information in the Exif metadata is used to correct the image orientation. Images in .png format don't contain Exif metadata.

      Amazon Rekognition doesn’t perform image correction for images in .png format and .jpeg images without orientation information in the image Exif metadata. The bounding box coordinates aren't translated and represent the object locations before the image is rotated.

Gets the celebrity recognition results for a Amazon Rekognition Video analysis started by StartCelebrityRecognition.

Celebrity recognition in a video is an asynchronous operation. Analysis is started by a call to StartCelebrityRecognition which returns a job identifier ( JobId).

When the celebrity recognition operation finishes, Amazon Rekognition Video publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service topic registered in the initial call to StartCelebrityRecognition. To get the results of the celebrity recognition analysis, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED. If so, call GetCelebrityDetection and pass the job identifier ( JobId) from the initial call to StartCelebrityDetection.

For more information, see Working With Stored Videos in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.

GetCelebrityRecognition returns detected celebrities and the time(s) they are detected in an array ( Celebrities) of CelebrityRecognition objects. Each CelebrityRecognition contains information about the celebrity in a CelebrityDetail object and the time, Timestamp, the celebrity was detected. This CelebrityDetail object stores information about the detected celebrity's face attributes, a face bounding box, known gender, the celebrity's name, and a confidence estimate.

By default, the Celebrities array is sorted by time (milliseconds from the start of the video). You can also sort the array by celebrity by specifying the value ID in the SortBy input parameter.

The CelebrityDetail object includes the celebrity identifer and additional information urls. If you don't store the additional information urls, you can get them later by calling GetCelebrityInfo with the celebrity identifer.

No information is returned for faces not recognized as celebrities.

Use MaxResults parameter to limit the number of labels returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults, the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetCelebrityDetection and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value returned from the previous call to GetCelebrityRecognition.

Gets face detection results for a Amazon Rekognition Video analysis started by StartFaceDetection.

Face detection with Amazon Rekognition Video is an asynchronous operation. You start face detection by calling StartFaceDetection which returns a job identifier ( JobId). When the face detection operation finishes, Amazon Rekognition Video publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service topic registered in the initial call to StartFaceDetection. To get the results of the face detection operation, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED. If so, call GetFaceDetection and pass the job identifier ( JobId) from the initial call to StartFaceDetection.

GetFaceDetection returns an array of detected faces ( Faces) sorted by the time the faces were detected.

Use MaxResults parameter to limit the number of labels returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults, the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetFaceDetection and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value returned from the previous call to GetFaceDetection.

Gets the face search results for Amazon Rekognition Video face search started by StartFaceSearch. The search returns faces in a collection that match the faces of persons detected in a video. It also includes the time(s) that faces are matched in the video.

Face search in a video is an asynchronous operation. You start face search by calling to StartFaceSearch which returns a job identifier ( JobId). When the search operation finishes, Amazon Rekognition Video publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service topic registered in the initial call to StartFaceSearch. To get the search results, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED. If so, call GetFaceSearch and pass the job identifier ( JobId) from the initial call to StartFaceSearch.

For more information, see Searching Faces in a Collection in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.

The search results are retured in an array, Persons, of PersonMatch objects. Each PersonMatch element contains details about the matching faces in the input collection, person information (facial attributes, bounding boxes, and person identifer) for the matched person, and the time the person was matched in the video.

By default, the Persons array is sorted by the time, in milliseconds from the start of the video, persons are matched. You can also sort by persons by specifying INDEX for the SORTBY input parameter.

Gets the path tracking results of a Amazon Rekognition Video analysis started by StartPersonTracking.

The person path tracking operation is started by a call to StartPersonTracking which returns a job identifier ( JobId). When the operation finishes, Amazon Rekognition Video publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service topic registered in the initial call to StartPersonTracking.

To get the results of the person path tracking operation, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED. If so, call GetPersonTracking and pass the job identifier ( JobId) from the initial call to StartPersonTracking.

GetPersonTracking returns an array, Persons, of tracked persons and the time(s) their paths were tracked in the video.

By default, the array is sorted by the time(s) a person's path is tracked in the video. You can sort by tracked persons by specifying INDEX for the SortBy input parameter.

Use the MaxResults parameter to limit the number of items returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults, the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetPersonTracking and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value returned from the previous call to GetPersonTracking.

Detects faces in the input image and adds them to the specified collection.

Amazon Rekognition doesn't save the actual faces that are detected. Instead, the underlying detection algorithm first detects the faces in the input image. For each face, the algorithm extracts facial features into a feature vector, and stores it in the backend database. Amazon Rekognition uses feature vectors when it performs face match and search operations using the SearchFaces and SearchFacesByImage operations.

For more information, see Adding faces to a collection in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.

To get the number of faces in a collection, call DescribeCollection.

If you're using version 1.0 of the face detection model, IndexFaces indexes the 15 largest faces in the input image. Later versions of the face detection model index the 100 largest faces in the input image.

If you're using version 4 or later of the face model, image orientation information is not returned in the OrientationCorrection field.

To determine which version of the model you're using, call DescribeCollection and supply the collection ID. You can also get the model version from the value of FaceModelVersion in the response from IndexFaces

For more information, see Model Versioning in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.

If you provide the optional ExternalImageId for the input image you provided, Amazon Rekognition associates this ID with all faces that it detects. When you call the ListFaces operation, the response returns the external ID. You can use this external image ID to create a client-side index to associate the faces with each image. You can then use the index to find all faces in an image.

You can specify the maximum number of faces to index with the MaxFaces input parameter. This is useful when you want to index the largest faces in an image and don't want to index smaller faces, such as those belonging to people standing in the background.

The QualityFilter input parameter allows you to filter out detected faces that don’t meet a required quality bar. The quality bar is based on a variety of common use cases. By default, IndexFaces chooses the quality bar that's used to filter faces. You can also explicitly choose the quality bar. Use QualityFilter, to set the quality bar by specifying LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH. If you do not want to filter detected faces, specify NONE.

Information about faces detected in an image, but not indexed, is returned in an array of UnindexedFace objects, UnindexedFaces. Faces aren't indexed for reasons such as:

  • The number of faces detected exceeds the value of the MaxFaces request parameter.

  • The face is too small compared to the image dimensions.

  • The face is too blurry.

  • The image is too dark.

  • The face has an extreme pose.

  • The face doesn’t have enough detail to be suitable for face search.

In response, the IndexFaces operation returns an array of metadata for all detected faces, FaceRecords. This includes:

  • The bounding box, BoundingBox, of the detected face.

  • A confidence value, Confidence, which indicates the confidence that the bounding box contains a face.

  • A face ID, FaceId, assigned by the service for each face that's detected and stored.

  • An image ID, ImageId, assigned by the service for the input image.

If you request ALL or specific facial attributes (e.g., FACE_OCCLUDED) by using the detectionAttributes parameter, Amazon Rekognition returns detailed facial attributes, such as facial landmarks (for example, location of eye and mouth), facial occlusion, and other facial attributes.

If you provide the same image, specify the same collection, and use the same external ID in the IndexFaces operation, Amazon Rekognition doesn't save duplicate face metadata.

The input image is passed either as base64-encoded image bytes, or as a reference to an image in an Amazon S3 bucket. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing image bytes isn't supported. The image must be formatted as a PNG or JPEG file.

This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:IndexFaces action.

type CollectionId:

string

param CollectionId:

[REQUIRED]

The ID of an existing collection to which you want to add the faces that are detected in the input images.

type Image:

dict

param Image:

[REQUIRED]

The input image as base64-encoded bytes or an S3 object. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing base64-encoded image bytes isn't supported.

If you are using an AWS SDK to call Amazon Rekognition, you might not need to base64-encode image bytes passed using the Bytes field. For more information, see Images in the Amazon Rekognition developer guide.

  • Bytes (bytes) --

    Blob of image bytes up to 5 MBs. Note that the maximum image size you can pass to DetectCustomLabels is 4MB.

  • S3Object (dict) --

    Identifies an S3 object as the image source.

    • Bucket (string) --

      Name of the S3 bucket.

    • Name (string) --

      S3 object key name.

    • Version (string) --

      If the bucket is versioning enabled, you can specify the object version.

type ExternalImageId:

string

param ExternalImageId:

The ID you want to assign to all the faces detected in the image.

type DetectionAttributes:

list

param DetectionAttributes:

An array of facial attributes you want to be returned. A DEFAULT subset of facial attributes - BoundingBox, Confidence, Pose, Quality, and Landmarks - will always be returned. You can request for specific facial attributes (in addition to the default list) - by using ["DEFAULT", "FACE_OCCLUDED"] or just ["FACE_OCCLUDED"]. You can request for all facial attributes by using ["ALL"]. Requesting more attributes may increase response time.

If you provide both, ["ALL", "DEFAULT"], the service uses a logical AND operator to determine which attributes to return (in this case, all attributes).

  • (string) --

type MaxFaces:

integer

param MaxFaces:

The maximum number of faces to index. The value of MaxFaces must be greater than or equal to 1. IndexFaces returns no more than 100 detected faces in an image, even if you specify a larger value for MaxFaces.

If IndexFaces detects more faces than the value of MaxFaces, the faces with the lowest quality are filtered out first. If there are still more faces than the value of MaxFaces, the faces with the smallest bounding boxes are filtered out (up to the number that's needed to satisfy the value of MaxFaces). Information about the unindexed faces is available in the UnindexedFaces array.

The faces that are returned by IndexFaces are sorted by the largest face bounding box size to the smallest size, in descending order.

MaxFaces can be used with a collection associated with any version of the face model.

type QualityFilter:

string

param QualityFilter:

A filter that specifies a quality bar for how much filtering is done to identify faces. Filtered faces aren't indexed. If you specify AUTO, Amazon Rekognition chooses the quality bar. If you specify LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH, filtering removes all faces that don’t meet the chosen quality bar. The default value is AUTO. The quality bar is based on a variety of common use cases. Low-quality detections can occur for a number of reasons. Some examples are an object that's misidentified as a face, a face that's too blurry, or a face with a pose that's too extreme to use. If you specify NONE, no filtering is performed.

To use quality filtering, the collection you are using must be associated with version 3 of the face model or higher.

                The x-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the width of the image. The x-coordinate is measured from the left-side of the image. For example, if the image is 700 pixels wide and the x-coordinate of the landmark is at 350 pixels, this value is 0.5.

              • Y (float) --

                The y-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the height of the image. The y-coordinate is measured from the top of the image. For example, if the image height is 200 pixels and the y-coordinate of the landmark is at 50 pixels, this value is 0.25.

            • Brightness (float) --

              Value representing brightness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a brighter face image.

            • Sharpness (float) --

              Value representing sharpness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a sharper face image.

          • Confidence (float) --

            Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree). Default attribute.

          • FaceOccluded (dict) --

            FaceOccluded should return "true" with a high confidence score if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. FaceOccluded should return "false" with a high confidence score if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

            • Value (boolean) --

              True if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. False if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

            • Confidence (float) --

              The confidence that the service has detected the presence of a face occlusion.

    • OrientationCorrection (string) --

      If your collection is associated with a face detection model that's later than version 3.0, the value of OrientationCorrection is always null and no orientation information is returned.

      If your collection is associated with a face detection model that's version 3.0 or earlier, the following applies:

      • If the input image is in .jpeg format, it might contain exchangeable image file format (Exif) metadata that includes the image's orientation. Amazon Rekognition uses this orientation information to perform image correction - the bounding box coordinates are translated to represent object locations after the orientation information in the Exif metadata is used to correct the image orientation. Images in .png format don't contain Exif metadata. The value of OrientationCorrection is null.

      • If the image doesn't contain orientation information in its Exif metadata, Amazon Rekognition returns an estimated orientation (ROTATE_0, ROTATE_90, ROTATE_180, ROTATE_270). Amazon Rekognition doesn’t perform image correction for images. The bounding box coordinates aren't translated and represent the object locations before the image is rotated.

      Bounding box information is returned in the FaceRecords array. You can get the version of the face detection model by calling DescribeCollection.

    • FaceModelVersion (string) --

      The version number of the face detection model that's associated with the input collection ( CollectionId).

    • UnindexedFaces (list) --

      An array of faces that were detected in the image but weren't indexed. They weren't indexed because the quality filter identified them as low quality, or the MaxFaces request parameter filtered them out. To use the quality filter, you specify the QualityFilter request parameter.

      • (dict) --

        A face that IndexFaces detected, but didn't index. Use the Reasons response attribute to determine why a face wasn't indexed.

        • Reasons (list) --

          An array of reasons that specify why a face wasn't indexed.

          • EXTREME_POSE - The face is at a pose that can't be detected. For example, the head is turned too far away from the camera.

          • EXCEEDS_MAX_FACES - The number of faces detected is already higher than that specified by the MaxFaces input parameter for IndexFaces.

          • LOW_BRIGHTNESS - The image is too dark.

          • LOW_SHARPNESS - The image is too blurry.

          • LOW_CONFIDENCE - The face was detected with a low confidence.

          • SMALL_BOUNDING_BOX - The bounding box around the face is too small.

          • (string) --

        • FaceDetail (dict) --

          The structure that contains attributes of a face that ``IndexFaces``detected, but didn't index.

          • Landmarks (list) --

            Indicates the location of landmarks on the face. Default attribute.

            • (dict) --

              Indicates the location of the landmark on the face.

              • Type (string) --

                Type of landmark.

              • X (float) --

                The x-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the width of the image. The x-coordinate is measured from the left-side of the image. For example, if the image is 700 pixels wide and the x-coordinate of the landmark is at 350 pixels, this value is 0.5.

              • Y (float) --

                The y-coordinate of the landmark expressed as a ratio of the height of the image. The y-coordinate is measured from the top of the image. For example, if the image height is 200 pixels and the y-coordinate of the landmark is at 50 pixels, this value is 0.25.

          • Pose (dict) --

            Indicates the pose of the face as determined by its pitch, roll, and yaw. Default attribute.

            Identifies image brightness and sharpness. Default attribute.

            • Brightness (float) --

              Value representing brightness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a brighter face image.

            • Sharpness (float) --

              Value representing sharpness of the face. The service returns a value between 0 and 100 (inclusive). A higher value indicates a sharper face image.

          • Confidence (float) --

            Confidence level that the bounding box contains a face (and not a different object such as a tree). Default attribute.

          • FaceOccluded (dict) --

            FaceOccluded should return "true" with a high confidence score if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. FaceOccluded should return "false" with a high confidence score if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

            • Value (boolean) --

              True if a detected face’s eyes, nose, and mouth are partially captured or if they are covered by masks, dark sunglasses, cell phones, hands, or other objects. False if common occurrences that do not impact face verification are detected, such as eye glasses, lightly tinted sunglasses, strands of hair, and others.

            • Confidence (float) --

              The confidence that the service has detected the presence of a face occlusion.
