DeepFace is a leading open-source library for facial recognition and facial attribute analysis, and the de facto standard in Python. It wraps multiple state-of-the-art models that have reached — and even surpassed — human-level accuracy in recognizing faces. By the numbers (as of early 2025): 15,000+ stars on GitHub; ~4 million installations via pip; 800+ citations in academic papers Whether you're building a cutting-edge AI project or simply exploring facial recognition, DeepFace makes advanced capabilities accessible with just a few lines of code.

Hello HN! I want to share something me and a few friends have been working on for a while now — Zeroshot, a web tool that builds image classifiers using text-image models and autolabeling. What does this mean in practice? You can put together an image classifier in about 30 seconds that’s faster and more accurate than CLIP, but that you can deploy yourself however you’d like. It’s open source, commercially licensed, and doesn’t require you to pay anyone per API call. Here's a 2 minute video that shows it off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4R1gtmM-Lo How/why does it…

Hi HN, I am Anubhav from RamanLabs. We have been developing end to end Computer-vision modules to make it easy for developers, hobbyists to integrate such functionality into their applications with minimal amount of code. All modules are developed to run real-time on consumer-grade CPUs[0]. For now we are releasing only Python-language SDK. Demos are provided to allow users to test performance on desired data-distribution. Framework powering these modules in completely written in Nim language, which under the hood wraps some Operation's implementation provided by libraries like…

I deal with a lot of geometry stuff at work with computer vision and photogrammetry, which usually comes from the real world. It's seldom clean and neat, and I'm often trying to find a way to "make it nice" or "make it pretty". I've always struggled with what that really means formally. That led me to shape regularization (a technique used in computational geometry to clean up geometric data). CGAL had implemented a few methods for that, but there are more ways to do it, which I thought were nice. Also I typically work in Python, so it was nice to have a pure Python library could handle…

Starting today, DirectAI’s Zero-Shot Image Classification & Object Detection APIs are public. Define classes and objects exclusively in natural language - no training data required. And if something goes wrong, you can resolve the edge case in natural language too! We’ve been hard at work to bring powerful and controllable computer vision to everybody. To do this, we’re building novel ways of interacting with the knowledge stored in large foundation models. We’re bootstrapping from zero-shot methods to create new approaches that allow for more control over decision boundaries, without…

supervision is a Python package with tools for building computer vision applications. With supervision, you can: - Load and filter predictions from a range of state of the art models into a standard API (i.e. YOLOv8, SAM). - Annotate images and videos with bounding boxes, segmentation masks, and more. - Calculate confusion matrices. - Use ByteTrack to track objects. - Use SAHI to process small object detection. - Process video frames. - And more. Our goal with supervision is to provide model-agnostic tools with a concise syntax that you can use to build logic on top of computer vision…

Hello! I've created a small library for tracking, along with a tutorial. I plan to continue developing it. Tracking is an important topic, closely related to object detection. However, I've noticed that it doesn't receive as much attention compared to machine learning approaches. Or, the focus is on filters like the Kalman filter. This tutorial begins with single object tracking and progressively complicates the tasks, introducing various models and a hypothesis tree to solve them.
