A deep learning face analysis toolkit built on Caffe, implementing face detection, facial keypoint (alignment) detection, and face verification using DeepID-style architectures. It also curates a collection of commonly used face research datasets organized by task.

Use cases

• detect faces in full-size images with a fully convolutional network
• find facial key points like eyes and nose for alignment
• verify whether two face images belong to the same person
• train face recognition models with DeepID architecture on Caffe
• find face datasets for detection, alignment, and recognition research

When to choose

• you need reference implementations of classic Caffe-based face detection, alignment, or DeepID verification
• you are studying or reproducing pre-2016 face analysis research
• you want a curated list of face datasets organized by task

When to avoid

• you need a maintained, production-ready face recognition system
• you want modern architectures or PyTorch/TensorFlow support
• you need a permissively licensed project (no license is specified)
• you require up-to-date documentation or community support
