# Clothing Analysis

DEPRECATED: The clothing analysis engine is deprecated in Media Server version 24.4 and later. OpenText recommends using the person analysis engine instead.

This analysis engine is still available for existing implementations, but it might be incompatible with new functionality. It might be removed in future.

Clothing analysis finds the location of the clothing worn by a person. The person must have been identified by face detection, or an object class recognition task that was configured to use the pre-trained person recognizer.

After finding the location of a person's clothing, you can use other tasks to extract more information, for example use a color cluster task to identify the color of the clothing.

Configuration Parameter | Description
--- | ---
ClothingMode | A comma-separated list of regions to identify (`full`, `upper`, `lower`).
Input | The track to process.
NumParallel | The maximum number of video frames to analyze simultaneously.
SegmentDuration | The maximum duration of a record in the `SegmentedResult` or `SegmentedResultWithSource` track.
Type | The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to `Clothing`.

## Output Tracks

The following table describes the tracks that are generated by this engine. The Output column indicates whether the information contained in the track is included by default in the output created by an output task (when you don't set the `Input` parameter for the output task).

Output track | Description | Output
--- | --- | ---
`Data` | Contains one or more records, describing the location of clothing, for each input record. | No
`DataWithSource` | The same as the `Data` track, but each record also includes the source frame. | No
`Result` | Contains one or more records, describing the location of clothing, for each person. | Yes
`ResultWithSource` | The same as the `Result` track, but each record also includes the best source frame. | No
`SegmentedResult` | (Available only when processing video). The same as the `Result` track, except the duration of each record is limited by the parameter SegmentDuration. If a result exceeds the specified duration, Media Server begins a new record with the same ID. | Yes
`SegmentedResultWithSource` | (Available only when processing video). The same as the `ResultWithSource` track, except the duration of each record is limited by the parameter SegmentDuration. If a result exceeds the specified duration, Media Server begins a new record with the same ID. | No

To see an example record, use the action GetExampleRecord.
