Arcface-Paddle

1. Introduction

Arcface-Paddle is an open source deep face detection and recognition toolkit, powered by PaddlePaddle. Arcface-Paddle provides three related pretrained models now, include BlazeFace for face detection, ArcFace and MobileFace for face recognition.

2. Environment preparation

2.1 Install Paddle from pypi


pip install paddlepaddle-gpu==2.2.0rc0

3. Data preparation

3.1 Download dataset

Download the dataset from insightface datasets.

3.2 Extract MXNet Dataset to images

python tools/mx_recordio_2_images.py --root_dir ms1m-retinaface-t1/ --output_dir MS1M_v3/

After finishing unzipping the dataset, the folder structure is as follows.

MS1M_v3
|_ images
|  |_ 00000001.jpg
|  |_ ...
|  |_ 05179510.jpg
|_ label.txt
|_ agedb_30.bin
|_ cfp_ff.bin
|_ cfp_fp.bin
|_ lfw.bin

Label file format is as follows.

# delimiter: "\t"
# the following the content of label.txt
images/00000001.jpg 0
...

If you want to use customed dataset, you can arrange your data according to the above format.

3.3 Transform between original image files and bin files

If you want to convert original image files to bin files used directly for training process, you can use the following command to finish the conversion.

python tools/convert_image_bin.py --image_path="your/input/image/path" --bin_path="your/output/bin/path" --mode="image2bin"

If you want to convert bin files to original image files, you can use the following command to finish the conversion.

python tools/convert_image_bin.py --image_path="your/input/bin/path" --bin_path="your/output/image/path" --mode="bin2image"

4. How to Training

4.1 Single node, 8 GPUs:

Static Mode

sh scripts/train_static.sh

Dynamic Mode

sh scripts/train_dynamic.sh

During training, you can view loss changes in real time through VisualDL, For more information, please refer to VisualDL.

5. Model evaluation

The model evaluation process can be started as follows.

Static Mode

sh scripts/validation_static.sh

Dynamic Mode

sh scripts/validation_dynamic.sh

6. Export model

PaddlePaddle supports inference using prediction engines. Firstly, you should export inference model.

Static Mode

sh scripts/export_static.sh

Dynamic Mode

sh scripts/export_dynamic.sh

We also support export to onnx model, you only need to set --export_type onnx.

7. Model inference

The model inference process supports paddle save inference model and onnx model.

sh scripts/inference.sh

For more experimental results see PLSC, which is an open source Paddle Large Scale Classification Tools powered by PaddlePaddle. It supports 60 million classes on 8 NVIDIA V100 (32G).

9. Inference using PaddleInference

9.1 Install insightface-paddle

# install insightface-paddle
pip install --upgrade insightface-paddle
mkdir -p images/gallery/
mkdir -p images/query/

# Index library for the recognition process
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/littletomatodonkey/insight-face-paddle/main/demo/friends/index.bin -P images/gallery/
# Demo image
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/littletomatodonkey/insight-face-paddle/main/demo/friends/query/friends2.jpg -P images/query/

9.3 Inference using MobileFace

# default using MobileFace
insightfacepaddle \
    --det \
    --rec \
    --index=images/gallery/index.bin \
    --input=images/query/friends2.jpg \
    --output="./output"

The final result is save in folder output/, which is shown as follows.
