uniface is a lightweight face detection library designed for high-performance face localization, landmark detection and face alignment. The library supports ONNX models and provides utilities for bounding box visualization and landmark plotting. To train RetinaFace model, see https://github.com/yakhyo/retinaface-pytorch.

The easiest way to install UniFace is via PyPI. This will automatically install the library along with its prerequisites.
pip install unifaceTo work with the latest version of UniFace, which may not yet be released on PyPI, you can install it directly from the repository:
git clone https://github.com/yakhyo/uniface.git
cd uniface
pip install .To get started with face detection using UniFace, check out the example notebook. It demonstrates how to initialize the model, run inference, and visualize the results.
Explore the following example notebooks to learn how to use UniFace effectively:
- Face Detection: Demonstrates how to perform face detection, draw bounding boxes, and landmarks on an image.
- Face Alignment: Shows how to align faces using detected landmarks.
- Age and Gender Detection: Example for detecting age and gender from faces. (underdevelopment)
