dlibLearn how to use the dlib library for face recognition, training custom landmark/shape predictors, object detection, object tracking, and more with my free dlib tutorials and guides.
The latest release of dlib is special. It completely removes the boost.python dependency, making it significantly easier to install across the board on macOS, Ubuntu, and Raspbian. Thanks to the work of Davis King (the creator and maintainer of the…
