## What it is
DSFD (Dual Shot Face Detector) is Tencent Youtu's high-accuracy face detection network, released with PyTorch inference code and pretrained weights. It ranked No.1 on the WIDER FACE and FDDB benchmarks and was published at CVPR 2019.

## Use cases
- detect faces in images with a pretrained model
- evaluate a face detector on WIDER FACE
- evaluate face detection on FDDB
- find small faces in crowded photos
- run face detection inference in PyTorch
- compare face detectors against state-of-the-art benchmarks

## When to choose
- you need highly accurate face detection, especially on small or crowded faces
- you want a proven CVPR-published detector with pretrained weights
- you have a Linux GPU environment with PyTorch available

## When to avoid
- you need CPU-only or lightweight real-time detection on edge devices
- you need actively maintained code with modern PyTorch versions (requirements pin Torch 0.3.1)
- you need face recognition or landmarks, not just detection

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: computer-vision, image-processing, machine-learning, deep-learning
- domain: computer-vision, image-processing, deep-learning, artificial-intelligence
- platform: python
- tags: face-detection, pytorch, cvpr2019, wider-face, fddb, dual-shot-detector, pretrained-model, linux, gpu
