DEST v0.7
We are happy to announce v0.7 of DEST bringing the following improvements
- switched from GPL to BSD license.
- re-trained tracker files with increased accuracy.
- training now supports nested directories.
- importing databases now searches for different image types.
Pre-trained Trackers
dest_tracker_VJ_HELEN.bin
Trained on the ibug annotated HELEN face data set containing 2000 images (doubled through mirroring) annotated with 68 landmarks. Initial rectangles provided by OpenCV Viola Jones using dest::face::FaceDetector
.
