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.
