Facial Shape-Based Eyeglass Recommendation Using Convolutional Neural Networks

Eyeglasses are not only used to protect our vision and prevent dust from getting into our eyes. Additionally, glass that fits properly can give a person an elegant appearance. However, people often find it difficult to choose eyeglasses that fit their face shape; to address this issue, we have proposed a novel architecture in this paper. In order to do this, we created a pipeline that can recommend eyeglasses based on the form of the eyes using multiple transfer learning architecture to predict the face shape from a given image. We utilized InceptionV4 [17], InceptionV3[18], Vit Small [12], DenseNet121 [10], ResNet50 [9], and VGG16 [16] to predict the facial shape from the image and achieve a test accuracy of 75%. We used 5500 photos with five different face shapes (Heart, Oblong, Oval, Round, Square) for this experiment, and two distinct datasets were gathered from Kaggle [2] and GitHub [1]. By simply uploading the photograph to our recommendation system, our proposed solution can assist users in selecting the appropriate eyewear.
