Installation

1. Install PyTorch-1.0.0 according to your environment.

2. Clone this repository. We will call the cloned directory as $S3FD_ROOT.

git clone https://github.com/luuuyi/S3FD.PyTorch.git

3. Compile the nms:

./make.sh

Note: We support PyTorch-1.0.0 and Python 3+.

Training

1. Download WIDER FACE dataset, place the images under this directory:

$S3FD_ROOT/data/WIDER_FACE/images

2. Convert WIDER FACE annotations to VOC format or download our converted annotations, place them under this directory:

$S3FD_ROOT/data/WIDER_FACE/annotations

3. Download VGG Pretrained Model from here, place it under this directory:

$S3FD_ROOT/weights

4. Train the model using WIDER FACE(You should modify below file depend on your setting):

cd $S3FD_ROOT/
./train_s3fd.sh

Evaluation(WIDER Face)

1. Evaluate the trained model using:(You should modify below file depend on your setting)

./test_s3fd.sh

2. If you can use Matlab, downloading official eval tools to evaluate the performance. If you use Python, clone this repo WiderFace-Evaluation to evaluate the performance.

Performance(FDDB)

1. Single-Scale : minside is 300 pixels aligned

Test

1. Single-Scale : minside is 1080 pixels aligned
