Our Paper is out here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.09569

We have launched a new version of the dataset so please refer it here: https://github.com/Rishit-dagli/CPPE-Dataset/

COVID-19 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Detection Dataset for Our COVID-19 Warriors

We wanted to do something for our COVID Warriors and hence decided to detect the PPE kit(Mask, Face Sheild, Full Cover, Gloves, Goggles) which they wear before entering a Ward using Machine Learning so that anyone without a PPE can be detected and doesn't incidentally get into a COVID ward. The Dataset didn't exist so we decided to create one.

About Data

We have collected data from Google Image Search and Images extracted using Youtube Video (Tutorials showing how to wear PPE). It was then labeled for 5 Classes(Mask, Face Sheild, Full Cover, Gloves, Goggles) using LabelImage.

We have included a sample trained model and TensorFlow record files.

Acknowledgements

We thank all these Youtube Videos, Newspaper cuttings with PPE kits, and public images available on Google Search.

Inspiration

We would love to see how the Kaggle community would utilize this dataset! We have trained a model which gives us good results (find it in the model folder)
