Introduction

VIDIZMO allows users to filter out individuals based on face attributes that include age, gender, and race. The attribute prediction works on face detections that are generated on images and videos. Users can create a query by selecting attribute brackets to display face detections that match their requirements. In Studio Space, users can create their desired query and perform Redaction on the corresponding face detections. To gain a better understanding, please refer to the dedicated article Face Attribute Prediction: An In-Depth Explanation. 


For a comprehensive guide on leveraging facial attributes without Studio Space, refer to How to Generate Face Attribute Insights in VIDIZMO.


Prerequisites

  • Confirm that the VIDIZMO Indexer App is activated for use.
  • Ensure that Face Detection functionality is configured within the VIDIZMO Indexer App. 
  • Validate the inclusion of Redaction as part of your VIDIZMO package to ensure its availability and functionality.


Using Facial Attributes for Redaction in Studio Space

    1. Access the desired media file by clicking the overflow menu and selecting Studio Space or Redact option. Alternatively, choose the media file and utilize the top options, selecting either Studio Space or Redact to open the media file in Studio Space.



     2. If the automatic processing option was turned off during the VIDIZMO Indexer App configuration, the Face Detection Activity may not have been applied to the media file. To address this, navigate to the top navigation bar in Studio Space and click on the Auto-Detect button. This enables users to specify the detection type and define the facial attributes they wish to identify in the media file.



    3. Within the Start Detection modal, add Face Detection into the Detection Types, and choose the specific attributes you intend to predict. Initiate the workflow for the Detection Activity by clicking the Start button.



    4. Auto-detections identify facial attributes based on the earlier specified criteria and present the detected objects in the left panel of Studio Space. To refine face detection preferences, utilize the Filter Icon to narrow down detections by class.

    5. Click on the filter icon, and choose the Face option by selecting the checkbox.

    6. Use the ">" arrow to customize detection based on predictions for age, gender, and race predicted by the model.

    7. Additionally, employ the Edit button to adjust the Confidence Score for filtering out blurry faces in the detections.



    8. Select the faces you want to redact individually or use the Select All option to mark all available detections matching your criteria. 

    9. Use the Redact icon to mark these Selections for the redaction activity.  

    10. Click Redact to begin the redaction process for your file. Click "Redact as New" to create a redacted file copy.
