Compare a variety of face recognition algorithms by running them on many image databases with default protocols.

Project description

Welcome to the Face Recognition Library. This library is designed to perform a fair comparison of face recognition algorithms. It contains scripts to execute various kinds of face recognition experiments on a variety of facial image databases.

Installation

Currently the library is only available as a private project of bioidiap at GitHub. To check out the current version of the FaceRecLib, go to the console, move to any place you like and call:

$ git clone git@github.com:bioidiap/facereclib.git

The FaceRecLib is a satellite package of Bob. You will need a copy of it to run the algoritms. Please download Bob from its webpage.

After downloading, you should go to the console and write:

$ python bootstrap.py
$ bin/buildout
$ bin/sphinx-build docs sphinx

This will download all required packages and install them locally. If you don’t want all the database packages to be downloaded, please remove the xbob.db.[database] lines from the eggs section of the file buildout.cfg in the main directory before calling the three commands above.

Now, you can open the documentation by typing:

$ firefox sphinx/index.html

and read further instructions on how to use this library.
