Face Masks ensemble dataset is no longer limited to [Kaggle](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/henrylydecker/face-masks), it is now coming to Huggingface!
This dataset was created to help train and/or fine tune models for detecting masked and un-masked faces.
I created a new face masks object detection dataset by compositing together three publically available face masks object detection datasets on Kaggle that used the YOLO annotation format.
To combine the datasets, I used Roboflow.
All three original datasets had different class dictionaries, so I recoded the classes into two classes: "Mask" and "No Mask".
One dataset included a class for incorrectly worn face masks, images with this class were removed from the dataset.
Approximately 50 images had corrupted annotations, so they were manually re-annotated in the Roboflow platform.
The final dataset includes 9,982 images, with 24,975 annotated instances.
Image resolution was on average 0.49 mp, with a median size of 750 x 600 pixels.
To improve model performance on out of sample data, I used 90 degree rotational augmentation.
This saved duplicate versions of each image for 90, 180, and 270 degree rotations.
I then split the data into 85% training, 10% validation, and 5% testing.
Images with classes that were removed from the dataset were removed, leaving 16,000 images in training, 1,900 in validation, and 1,000 in testing.
