About The Project

YOLOX is an anchor-free version of YOLO with strong performance for object detection. In this repository I train Yolox on WiderFace dataset with Google Colab to develop a face detection algorithm.

Built With

• Yolox
• Wider Face Dataset

Getting Started

Look at Jupyter Notebooks to see training details and how to make this algorithm from scratch.

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/VarCode-ai/yolox-face-detection.git
   cd yolox-face-detection

2. Install YOLOX

   pip3 install -U pip && pip3 install -r requirements.txt
   
   pip3 install -v -e .
   
   pip3 install "git+https://github.com/philferriere/cocoapi.git#egg=pycocotools&subdirectory=PythonAPI"
   
   pip3 install cython

3. Download JPEGImages of Wider Face dataset

   cd datasets\VOCdevkit\VOC2022\JPEGImages
   python download_images.py

Usage

Real time detection

python tools/demo.py webcam -f exps/example/yolox_voc/yolox_voc_s.py -c YOLOX_outputs/yolox_voc_s/latest_ckpt.pth --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --device [cpu/gpu]

Images

python tools/demo.py image -f exps/example/yolox_voc/yolox_voc_s.py -c YOLOX_outputs/yolox_voc_s/latest_ckpt.pth --path assets/001.jpg --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --save_result --device [cpu/gpu]

Video

python tools/demo.py video -f exps/example/yolox_voc/yolox_voc_s.py -c YOLOX_outputs/yolox_voc_s/latest_ckpt.pth --path assets/will_smith_slap.mp4 --conf 0.25 --nms 0.45 --tsize 640 --save_result --device [cpu/gpu]

Train from pre-trained weights

Weights trained for 6 epochs

Code for resume training

python tools/train.py -f exps/example/yolox_voc/yolox_voc_s.py -d 1 -b 4 -c YOLOX_outputs/yolox_voc_s/latest_ckpt.pth --resume
