Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a significant impact on human life. The novel pandemic forced humans to change their lifestyles. Scientists have broken through the vaccine in many countries, but the face mask is the only protection for public interaction. In this study, deep neural networks (DNN) have been employed to determine the persons wearing masks correctly. The faster region-based convolutional neural networks (RCNN) model has been used to train the data using graphics processing unit (GPU) device. To achieve our goals, we used a multiphase detection model: first, to label the face mask, and second to detect the edge and compute edge projection for the chosen face region within the face mask. The current findings revealed that faster RCNN was efficient and precise, giving 97% accuracy. The overall loss after 200,000 epochs is 0.0503, with a trend to decrease. While the loss is falling, we are getting more accurate results. As a result, the faster RCNN technique effectively identifies whether a person is wearing face masks or not, and the training period was decreased with better accuracy. In the future, Deep Neural Network (DNN) might be used first to train the data and then compress the dimensions of the input to run it on low-powered devices, resulting in a lower computational cost. Our proposed system can achieve high face detection accuracy and coarsely obtain face posture estimation based on the specified rule. The faster RCNN learning algorithm returns high precision, and the model’s lower computational cost is achieved on GPU. We use the “label-image” application to label the photographs extracted from the dataset and apply Inception V2 of faster RCNN for face mask detection and classification.
