# Find Clothing

Clothing analysis provides the location of the clothing for a person who has been identified by face detection or object class recognition.

To determine the location of clothing

1. Open the configuration file in which you configured your face detection or object class recognition task for identifying people.

2. In the `[Session]` section, add a new analysis task by setting the `EngineN` parameter. You can give the task any name, for example:

       [Session]
       Engine0=Ingest
       Engine1=FaceDetect
       Engine2=Clothing

3. Create a new configuration section to contain the task settings, and set the following parameters:

   `Type` | The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to `Clothing`.
   `Input` | The track on which you want to run analysis. You can specify: the `DataWithSource` output track from a face detection task. the `ResultWithSource` output track from any face analysis task. the `ResultWithSource` output track from an object class recognition task, when that task runs detection using the pre-trained person recognizer.
   `ClothingMode` | (Optional) A comma-separated list of regions to identify. You can use the values `Full` (clothing covering the full body), `Upper` (upper body), and `Lower` (lower body). By default, clothing analysis only identifies the location of the clothing covering the full body.

   For example:

       [Clothing]
       Type=Clothing
       Input=FaceDetect.ResultWithSource
       ClothingMode=Upper,Lower

4. Save and close the configuration file. OpenText recommends that you save your configuration files in the location specified by the `ConfigDirectory` parameter.

You can run clothing analysis followed by a color analysis task to find the dominant color of a person's clothing. For more information about the color analysis task, see Color Clustering. The following procedure describes how to add a task for color analysis.

To determine the color of clothing

1. Open the configuration file in which you configured the clothing analysis task.

2. In the `[Session]` section, add a new analysis task (for color analysis) by setting the `EngineN` parameter. You can give the task any name, for example:

       [Session]
       Engine0=Ingest
       Engine1=FaceDetect
       Engine2=Clothing
       Engine3=ClothingColors

3. Create a new configuration section to contain the task settings, and set the following parameters:

   `Type` | The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to `ColorCluster`.
   `Input` | The track that contains information about the location of the clothing (and the image to analyze). Set this parameter to the `ResultWithSource` output track from your clothing analysis task. For example, if your clothing analysis task is named `Clothing`, set this parameter to `Clothing.ResultWithSource`.
   `Region` | A region to process, instead of processing the whole image or video frame. To analyze the regions in the input track (regions that contain clothing), set this parameter to `Input`.

   For example:

       [ClothingColors]
       Type=ColorCluster
       Input=Clothing.ResultWithSource
       Region=Input

4. Save and close the configuration file. OpenText recommends that you save your configuration files in the location specified by the `ConfigDirectory` parameter.
