Introduction

This repo holds the pytorch improved version of the paper: Face Alignment in Full Pose Range: A 3D Total Solution. Several works beyond the original paper are added, including the real-time training, training strategies. Therefore, this repo is an improved version of the original work. As far, this repo releases the pre-trained first-stage pytorch models of MobileNet-V1 structure, the pre-processed training&testing dataset and codebase. Note that the inference time is about 0.27ms per image (input batch with 128 images as an input batch) on GeForce GTX TITAN X.

This repo will keep updating in my spare time, and any meaningful issues and PR are welcomed.

Several results on ALFW-2000 dataset (inferenced from model phase1_wpdc_vdc.pth.tar) are shown below.

Applications & Features

1. Face Alignment

2. Face Reconstruction

3. 3D Pose Estimation

4. Depth Image Estimation

5. PNCC & PAF Features

Getting started

Requirements

PyTorch >= 0.4.1 (PyTorch v1.1.0 is tested successfully on macOS and Linux.)
Python >= 3.6 (Numpy, Scipy, Matplotlib)
Dlib (Dlib is optionally for face and landmarks detection. There is no need to use Dlib if you can provide face bouding bbox and landmarks. Besides, you can try the two-step inference strategy without initialized landmarks.)
OpenCV (Python version, for image IO opertations.)
Cython (For accelerating depth and PNCC render.)
Platform: Linux or macOS (Windows is not tested.)

# installation structions
sudo pip3 install torch torchvision # for cpu version. more option to see https://pytorch.org
sudo pip3 install numpy scipy matplotlib
sudo pip3 install dlib==19.5.0 # 19.15+ version may cause conflict with pytorch in Linux, this may take several minutes
sudo pip3 install opencv-python
sudo pip3 install cython

In addition, I strongly recommend using Python3.6+ instead of older version for its better design.

Usage

Clone this repo (this may take some time as it is a little big)
```
git clone https://github.com/cleardusk/3DDFA.git  # or [email protected]:cleardusk/3DDFA.git
cd 3DDFA
```
Then, download dlib landmark pre-trained model in Google Drive or Baidu Yun, and put it into models directory. (To reduce this repo's size, I remove some large size binary files including this model, so you should download it : ) )
Build cython module (just one line for building)
```
cd utils/cython
python3 setup.py build_ext -i
```
This is for accelerating depth estimation and PNCC render since Python is too slow in for loop.
Run the main.py with arbitrary image as input
```
python3 main.py -f samples/test1.jpg
```
If you can see these output log in terminal, you run it successfully.
```
Dump tp samples/test1_0.ply
Save 68 3d landmarks to samples/test1_0.txt
Dump obj with sampled texture to samples/test1_0.obj
Dump tp samples/test1_1.ply
Save 68 3d landmarks to samples/test1_1.txt
Dump obj with sampled texture to samples/test1_1.obj
Dump to samples/test1_pose.jpg
Dump to samples/test1_depth.png
Dump to samples/test1_pncc.png
Save visualization result to samples/test1_3DDFA.jpg
```
Because test1.jpg has two faces, there are two .ply and .obj files (can be rendered by Meshlab or Microsoft 3D Builder) predicted. Depth, PNCC, PAF and pose estimation are all set true by default. Please run python3 main.py -h or review the code for more details.

The 68 landmarks visualization result samples/test1_3DDFA.jpg and pose estimation result samples/test1_pose.jpg are shown below:

Additional example

python3 ./main.py -f samples/emma_input.jpg --bbox_init=two --dlib_bbox=false

Inference speed

CPU

Just run

python3 speed_cpu.py

On my MBP (i5-8259U CPU @ 2.30GHz on 13-inch MacBook Pro), based on PyTorch v1.1.0, with a single input, the running output is:

Inference speed: 14.50±0.11 ms

GPU

When input batch size is 128, the total inference time of MobileNet-V1 takes about 34.7ms. The average speed is about 0.27ms/pic.

Training details

The training scripts lie in training directory. The related resources are in below table.

Data	Download Link	Description
train.configs	BaiduYun or Google Drive, 217M	The directory contraining 3DMM params and filelists of training dataset
train_aug_120x120.zip	BaiduYun or Google Drive, 2.15G	The cropped images of augmentation training dataset
test.data.zip	BaiduYun or Google Drive, 151M	The cropped images of AFLW and ALFW-2000-3D testset

After preparing the training dataset and configuration files, go into training directory and run the bash scripts to train. train_wpdc.sh, train_vdc.sh and train_pdc.sh are examples of training scripts. After configuring the training and testing sets, just run them for training. Take train_wpdc.sh for example as below:

#!/usr/bin/env bash

LOG_ALIAS=$1
LOG_DIR="logs"
mkdir -p ${LOG_DIR}

LOG_FILE="${LOG_DIR}/${LOG_ALIAS}_`date +'%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M.%S'`.log"
#echo $LOG_FILE

./train.py --arch="mobilenet_1" \
    --start-epoch=1 \
    --loss=wpdc \
    --snapshot="snapshot/phase1_wpdc" \
    --param-fp-train='../train.configs/param_all_norm.pkl' \
    --param-fp-val='../train.configs/param_all_norm_val.pkl' \
    --warmup=5 \
    --opt-style=resample \
    --resample-num=132 \
    --batch-size=512 \
    --base-lr=0.02 \
    --epochs=50 \
    --milestones=30,40 \
    --print-freq=50 \
    --devices-id=0,1 \
    --workers=8 \
    --filelists-train="../train.configs/train_aug_120x120.list.train" \
    --filelists-val="../train.configs/train_aug_120x120.list.val" \
    --root="/path/to//train_aug_120x120" \
    --log-file="${LOG_FILE}"

The specific training parameters are all presented in bash scripts, including learning rate, mibi-batch size, epochs and so on.

Evaluation

First, you should download the cropped testset ALFW and ALFW-2000-3D in test.data.zip, then unzip it and put it in the root directory. Next, run the benchmark code by providing trained model path. I have already provided five pre-trained models in models directory (seen in below table). These models are trained using different loss in the first stage. The model size is about 13M due to the high efficiency of MobileNet-V1 structure.

python3 ./benchmark.py -c models/phase1_wpdc_vdc.pth.tar

The performances of pre-trained models are shown below. In the first stage, the effectiveness of different loss is in order: WPDC > VDC > PDC. While the strategy using VDC to finetune WPDC achieves the best result.

Model	AFLW (21 pts)	AFLW 2000-3D (68 pts)	Download Link
phase1_pdc.pth.tar	6.956±0.981	5.644±1.323	Baidu Yun or Google Drive
phase1_vdc.pth.tar	6.717±0.924	5.030±1.044	Baidu Yun or Google Drive
phase1_wpdc.pth.tar	6.348±0.929	4.759±0.996	Baidu Yun or Google Drive
phase1_wpdc_vdc.pth.tar	5.401±0.754	4.252±0.976	In this repo.

FQA

Face bounding box initialization

The original paper shows that using detected bounding box instead of ground truth box will cause a little performance drop. Thus the current face cropping method is robustest. Quantitative results are shown in below table.

Face reconstruction

The texture of non-visible area is distorted due to self-occlusion, therefore the non-visible face region may appear strange (a little horrible).
