Abstract: A fast indoor face detection method based on improved YOLO-v4 is proposed in this paper, under the complex working conditions of human faces with different angles, varying illumination, partial occlusion, and blurring in indoor security engineering applications. The YOLO-v4 backbone network is improved based on the deep separable residual network structure to increase the detection efficiency of the model. The attention mechanism is introduced during the process of constructing the feature pyramid, which can adaptively adjust the weights of the channel features and spatial features, to improve the feature extraction capability of the model. The experimental results show that the accuracy and speed of the proposed method are 92.53% and 35 frame/s, respectively, for indoor face images, which has relatively better detection precision and efficiency, compared with the original YOLO-v4 algorithm, and other mainstream face detection algorithms. The proposed method therefore can be applied to indoor face detection of mobile robots in real time.
