MTCNN_face_detection_alignment

Joint Face Detection and Alignment using Multi-task Cascaded Convolutional Neural Networks

Requirement

1. Caffe: Linux OS: https://github.com/BVLC/caffe. Windows OS: https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/tree/windows or https://github.com/happynear/caffe-windows
2. Pdollar toolbox: https://github.com/pdollar/toolbox
3. Matlab 2014b or later
4. Cuda (if use nvidia gpu)

Results

Other implementation

C++ & caffe
Python & mxnet
Python & caffe
Python & Pytorch

Face Recognition

Here we strongly recommend Center Face, which is an effective and efficient open-source tool for face recognition.
