Recently, capabilities of many computer vision tasks have significantly improved due to advances in Convolutional Neural Networks. In our research, we demonstrate that it can be also used for face detection from low resolution thermal images, acquired with a portable camera. The physical size of the camera used in our research allows for embedding it in a wearable device or indoor remote monitoring solution for elderly and disabled people. The benefits of the proposed architecture were experimentally verified on the thermal video sequences, acquired in various scenarios to address possible limitations of remote diagnostics: movements of the person performing a diagnose and movements of the examined person. The achieved short processing time (42.05±0.21ms) along with high model accuracy (false positives - 0.43%; true positives for the patient focused on a certain task - 89.2%) clearly indicates that the current state of the art in the area of image classification and face tracking in thermography was significantly outperformed.
