General Parameters

Use bash celantur --help to print all the parameters and exit.

Anonymisation

Parameter	Description
-a OBJECT --anonymise OBJECT	REQUIRED. Select what you want to anonymise. Options: face, license-plate, person, vehicle
--method METHOD	Choose anonymisation method. Options: blur : (default) non-reversible blur. blacken : remove colour value from detection. pixelate : low-res rendering of detection. detect : no anonymation.
--bbox	Anonymise whole bounding boxes instead of segmentation.
--debug	Visualise bounding boxes, anonymisation and tiling.
--score --confidence	Print the confidence scores for the detected objects on images (only if --debug is enabled).
--save-mask TYPE	Save binary mask or instance mask or both (all). See Segmentation Masks and Metadata. Options: binary, instance, all
--mask-scale [0..100]	Downscale binary or segmentation mask (only if --save-mask).
--overwrite	Overwrite existing files in output folder. If not specified, files in input folder will be skipped if file with same name exists in output folder.
--quality [0..100]	Quality of output JPEG image.
-f FORMAT --format FORMAT	See Format / Tiling

Blurring gradients

For details see Customize Blurring

Parameter	Description
--face-anonymization-gradient-start	Margin of gradual face blurring
--face-anonymization-gradient-stop	Padding of gradual face blurring
--license-plate-anonymization-gradient-start	Margin of gradual license plate blurring
--license-plate-anonymization-gradient-stop	Padding of gradual license plate blurring
--kernel-size-face	Kernel size for face blur.
--kernel-size-person	Kernel size for person blur.
--kernel-size-license-plate	Kernel size for license plate blur.
--kernel-size-vehicle	Kernel size for vehicle blur.

Inference

Parameter	Description
-e INFERENCE_ENGINE --inference-engine INFERENCE_ENGINE --model INFERENCE_ENGINE	Select inference model. Current default is segmentatio-omnium
--face-threshold [0..1]	Threshold for face detection.
--license-plate-threshold [0..1]	Threshold for license plate detection.
--vehicle-threshold [0..1]	Threshold for vehicle detection.
--person-threshold [0..1]	Threshold for person detection.
--cpu-mode	Disable GPU support, Using CPU only.

Video processing

Parameter	Description
--video	Anonymise videos, skip images.
--no-object-tracking	Disables Object Tracking which reduces flickering of anonymized objects in videos.
--keep-bit-rate	Enabling --keep-bit-rate will encode the anonymised video with a bitrate close to the original video and ensure a nearly identically file size of the processed video, at the cost of 10% to 20% higher processing time.
--frame-from INTEGER	Processing from the frame number (inclusive). Default is 0 (first frame of the video).
--frame-to INTEGER	Processing to the frame number (inclusive). Default: (last frame of the video)
--fai [FAI] --frame-as-image [FAI]	FAI or Frame As Image. If specified - saves every frame of a video as an image. If the parameter specified with value - then this value will be used as a path to where store folders with image frames. If the parameter is specified without value, then the normal output location is used to storing image frames.

Format / Tiling

By specifying image format settings with --format FORMAT , -f FORMAT, Celantur Container can achieve improved anonymization results and apply anonymization only to a specific region of an image.

Don't use spaces in the format string. Otherwise Bash has problems interpreting it as one argument.

Pre-defined format

You can use the option --format to choose the resolution of the input images, eg. --format pano:8000 for an image resolution of 8000x4000. Use --format whole (default) for all formats not listed below, or if the input images have different resolutions.

Parameter	Resolution
pano:4096	4096x2048
pano:5400	5400x2700
pano:5640	5640x2816
pano:7060	7060x3530
pano:7680	7680x3840
pano:8000	8000x4000
pano:7680	7680x3840
pano:8000	8000x4000
pano:8192	8192x4096
pano:11000	11000x5500
whole	default, valid for all resolutions

Ensure that the image resolution matches exactly the predefined resolution in the parameter to avoid processing errors.

Custom tiling

Configuration (under the hood)

Parameter	Description
-l FILE --license FILE	Path of the license file.
-i PATH --input PATH --input-dir PATH	Input file or directory.
-o PATH --output PATH --output-dir PATH	Output directory.
--log-level LEVEL	Logging level. Options: DEBUG, DETAIL, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL
--log-dir FOLDER	Location of the log files.
--pid-file FILE	Path of PID file.
