About the Project

Many deep learning toolkits are available on GitHub; however, we couldn't find one that would suit our needs. So, we created this improved one. This toolkit minimizes the deep learning teams' coding efforts to utilize the functionalities of famous deep learning models such as MTCNN in face detection, yolov5 in object detection, and many other repositories and models in various fields. In addition, it provides functionalities for preprocessing, monitoring, and manipulating datasets that can come in handy in any programming project.

What we have done so far:

• The outputs of all the models are standard numpy
• Single predict and batch predict of all models are ready
• handy functions and tools are tested and ready to use

Vision

We support two subsets of models in Computer Vision.

• Face Detection
• Object Detection

Face Detection

We have gathered a rich collection of face detection models which are mentioned in the following list. If you notice any model missing, feel free to open an issue or create a pull request.

MTCNN

1. After Installing the library, import deep_utils and instantiate models:

from deep_utils import face_detector_loader, list_face_detection_models
    
# This line will print all the available models 
print(list_face_detection_models())
   
# Create a face detection model using MTCNN-Torch
face_detector = face_detector_loader('MTCNNTorchFaceDetector')

2. The model is instantiated, Now let's Detect an image:

import cv2
from deep_utils import show_destroy_cv2, Box, download_file, Point

# Download an image
download_file("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pooya-mohammadi/deep_utils/master/examples/vision/data/movie-stars.jpg")

# Load an image
img = cv2.imread("movie-stars.jpg")

# show the image. Press a button to proceed
show_destroy_cv2(img)

# Detect the faces
result = face_detector.detect_faces(img, is_rgb=False)

# Draw detected boxes on the image.
img = Box.put_box(img, result.boxes)

# Draw the landmarks
for landmarks in result.landmarks:
    Point.put_point(img, list(landmarks.values()), radius=3)

# show the results
show_destroy_cv2(img)

The result:

Utils

DictNamedTuple

In this custom data type, we have added the methods of the Dict type to the NamedTuple type. You have access to .get(), .values(), .items() alongside all of the functionalities of a NamedTuple. Also, all the outputs of our models are DictNamedTuple, and you can modify and manipulate them easily. Let's see how to use it:

from deep_utils import dictnamedtuple
# create a new object
dict_object = dictnamedtuple(typename='letters', field_names=['firstname', 'lastname'])
# pass the values
instance_dict = dict_object(firstname='pooya', lastname='mohammadi')

# get items and ...
print("items: ", instance_dict.items())
print("keys: ", instance_dict.keys())
print("values: ", instance_dict.values())
print("firstname: ", instance_dict.firstname)
print("firstname: ", instance_dict['firstname'])
print("lastname: ", instance_dict.lastname)
print("lastname: ", instance_dict['lastname'])

# results
items:  [('firstname', 'pooya'), ('lastname', 'mohammadi')]
keys:  ['firstname', 'lastname']
values:  ['pooya', 'mohammadi']
firstname:  pooya
firstname:  pooya
lastname:  mohammadi
lastname:  mohammadi
