In a previous post I had discussed two libraries for facial landmark detection, and had pointed to several interesting applications like Face Morphing, Face Replacement etc. that use facial landmarks....
View ArticleFace Morph Using OpenCV — C++ / Python
In this tutorial we will learn how to morph one face into another using OpenCV. I have chosen to use the photos of the top three American Presidential candidates, but this is not a political post and...
View ArticleFace Swap using OpenCV ( C++ / Python )
In this tutorial we will learn how to swap out a face in one image with a completely different face using OpenCV and DLib in C++ and Python. To understand the description below better, download the C++...
View ArticleAverage Face : OpenCV ( C++ / Python ) Tutorial
In this tutorial we will learn how to create an average face using OpenCV ( C++ / Python ). Most people would agree that the woman in Figure 1 is pretty. Can you guess her ethnicity ? Why is her skin...
View ArticleSpeeding up Dlib’s Facial Landmark Detector
In this tutorial I will explore a few ways to speed up Dlib’s Facial Landmark Detector. Dlib’s Facial Landmark Detector Dlib has a very good implementation of a very fast facial landmark detector. I...
View ArticleHead Pose Estimation using OpenCV and Dlib
In this tutorial we will learn how to estimate the pose of a human head in a photo using OpenCV and Dlib. In many applications, we need to know how the head is tilted with respect to a camera. In a...
View ArticleAutomatic Red Eye Remover using OpenCV (C++ / Python)
In this tutorial, we will learn how to remove red eyes from a photo completely automatically. Just thinking about this problem of red-eye removal brings back memories from my childhood. I grew up in...
View ArticleEigenface using OpenCV (C++/Python)
In this post, we will learn about Eigenface — an application of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for human faces. We will also share C++ and Python code written using OpenCV to explain the concept....
View ArticleFace Reconstruction using EigenFaces (C++/Python)
In this post, we will learn how to reconstruct a face using EigenFaces. This post is written for beginners. If you don’t know about Principal Component Analysis (PCA) or EigenFaces, I recommend you go...
