Abstract:
The Covid-19 pandemic has adversely affected our lives. Movements and trading activities have been paralyzed. People have been forced to normalize into the new normal. The pandemic has shaped the way we live. In an attempt to fight against the pandemic, governments and other health organizations have fostered restrictive measures to reduce the spread of Covid-19. Some of these restrictions include but are not limited to total lockdown, limited social gatherings and the use of face masks. The use of face masks called for the need to have facial detection machines which can be developed from Keras, Scikit-learn and OpenCV. This paper examines the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which is utilized for detecting and classifying an individual wearing a mask.
