We provide the NCAER-S dataset with original images and extracted faces (a .txt file with 4 bounding box coordinate) in the NCAERS dataset.

The dataset can be downloaded at Google Drive

Note that the dataset and label should have structure like the followings:

NCAER-S 
│
└───images
│   │
│   └───class_1
│   │   │   img1.jpg
│   │   │   img2.jpg
│   │   │   ...
│   └───class_2
│       │   img1.jpg
│       │   img2.jpg
│       │   ...
│   
└───crop
│   │
│   └───class_1
│   │   │   img1.txt
│   │   │   img2.txt
│   │   │   ...
│   └───class_2
│       │   img1.txt
│       │   img2.txt
│       │   ...

Our code supports these types of execution with argument -m or --mode:

#extract faces from <train, val or test> dataset (specified in config.py)
python run.py -m extract dataset_type=train

#train the model with config specified in the config.py
python run.py -m train 

#evaluate the trained model on the dataset <dataset_type>
python run.py -m eval --dataset_type=test --trained_weights=path/to/weights

Our trained model is available at weights/glamor-net/Model.

• Firstly, please download the dataset and extract it into "data/" directory.
• Then specified the path to the test data (images and crop):

config = config.copy({
    'test_images': 'path_to_test_images',
    'test_crop':   'path_to_test_cropped_faces' #(.txt files),
})

• Run this command to evaluate the model. We are using the classification accuracy as our evaluation metric.

# Evaluate our model in the test set
python run.py -m eval --dataset_type=test --trained_weights=weights/glamor-net/Model

Firstly please extract the faces from train set (val set is optional)

• Specify the path to the dataset in config.py (train_images, val_images, test_images)
• Specify the desired face-extracted output path in config.py (train_crop, val_crop, test_crop)

config = config.copy({

    'train_images': 'path_to_training_images',
    'train_crop':   'path_to_training_cropped_faces' #(.txt files),

    'val_images': 'path_to_validation_images',
    'val_crop':   'path_to_validation_cropped_faces' #(.txt files)

})

• Perform face extraction on both dataset_type by running the commands:

python run.py -m extract --dataset_type=<train, val or test>

Start training:

# Train a new model from sratch
python run.py -m train 

# Continue training a model that you had trained earlier
python run.py -m train --resume=path/to/trained_weights

# Resume the last checkpoint model
python run.py -m train --resume=last

We support prediction on single image or on images in a directory by running this command:

# Predict on single image
python predict.py --trained_weights=weights/glamor-net/Model --input=test_images/1.jpg --output=path/to/out/directory

# Predict on images in directory
python predict.py --trained_weights=weights/glamor-net/Model --input=test_images/ --output=out/
