Detect face then autocrop pictures
Question:
I am trying to find an app that can detect faces in my pictures, make the detected face centered and crop 720 x 720 pixels of the picture. It is rather very time consuming & meticulous to edit around hundreds of pictures I plan to do that.
I have tried doing this using python opencv mentioned here but I think it is outdated. I’ve also tried using this but it’s also giving me an error in my system. Also tried using face detection plugin for GIMP but it is designed for GIMP 2.6 but I am using 2.8 on a regular basis. I also tried doing what was posted at ultrahigh blog but it is very outdated (since I’m using a Precise derivative of Ubuntu, while the blogpost was made way back when it was still Hardy). Also tried using Phatch but there is no face detection so some cropped pictures have their face cut right off.
I have tried all of the above and wasted half a day trying to make any of the above do what I needed to do.
Do you guys have suggestion to achieve a goal to around 800 pictures I have.
My operating system is Linux Mint 13 MATE.
Note: I was going to add 2 more links but stackexchange prevented me to post two more links as I don’t have much reputation yet.
Answers:
This sounds like it might be a better question for one of the more (computer) technology focused exchanges.
That said, have you looked into something like this jquery face detection script? I don’t know how savvy you are, but it is one option that is OS independent.
This solution also looks promising, but would require Windows.
I have managed to grab bits of code from various sources and stitch this together. It is still a work in progress. Also, do you have any example images?

You can install opencv
and imagemagick
on OS X with brew install opencv imagemagick
.
facedetect
OpenCV CLI wrapper written in Python
https://github.com/wavexx/facedetect is a nice Python OpenCV CLI wrapper, and I have added the following example to their README.
Installation:
sudo apt install python3-opencv opencv-data imagemagick
git clone https://gitlab.com/wavexx/facedetect
git -C facedetect checkout 5f9b9121001bce20f7d87537ff506fcc90df48ca
Get my test image:
mkdir -p pictures
wget -O pictures/test.jpg https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cirosantilli/media/master/Ciro_Santilli_with_a_stone_carved_Budai_in_the_Feilai_Feng_caves_near_the_Lingyin_Temple_in_Hangzhou_in_2012.jpg
Usage:
mkdir -p faces
for file in pictures/*.jpg; do
name=$(basename "$file")
i=0
facedetect/facedetect --data-dir /usr/share/opencv4 "$file" |
while read x y w h; do
convert "$file" -crop ${w}x${h}+${x}+${y} "faces/${name%.*}_${i}.${name##*.}"
i=$(($i+1))
done
done
If you don't pass --data-dir
on this system, it fails with:
facedetect: error: cannot load HAAR_FRONTALFACE_ALT2 from /usr/share/opencv/haarcascades/haarcascade_frontalface_alt2.xml
and the file it is looking for is likely at: /usr/share/opencv4/haarcascades
on the system.
After running it, the file:
faces/test_0.jpg
contains:
which was extracted from the original image pictures/test.jpg
:
Budai was not recognized 🙁 If it had it would appear under faces/test_1.jpg
, but that file does not exist.
Let's try another one with faces partially turned https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cirosantilli/media/master/Ciro_Santilli_with_his_mother_in_law_during_his_wedding_in_2017.jpg
Hmmm, no hits, the faces are not clear enough for the software.
Tested on Ubuntu 20.10, OpenCV 4.2.0.
Another available option is dlib, which is based on machine learning approaches.
import dlib
from PIL import Image
from skimage import io
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def detect_faces(image):
# Create a face detector
face_detector = dlib.get_frontal_face_detector()
# Run detector and get bounding boxes of the faces on image.
detected_faces = face_detector(image, 1)
face_frames = [(x.left(), x.top(),
x.right(), x.bottom()) for x in detected_faces]
return face_frames
# Load image
img_path = 'test.jpg'
image = io.imread(img_path)
# Detect faces
detected_faces = detect_faces(image)
# Crop faces and plot
for n, face_rect in enumerate(detected_faces):
face = Image.fromarray(image).crop(face_rect)
plt.subplot(1, len(detected_faces), n+1)
plt.axis('off')
plt.imshow(face)
I think the best option is Google Vision API.
It's updated, it uses machine learning and it improves with the time.
You can check the documentation for examples:
https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/other-features
the above codes work but this is recent implementation using OpenCV
I was unable to run the above by the latest and found something that works (from various places)
import cv2
import os
def facecrop(image):
facedata = "haarcascade_frontalface_alt.xml"
cascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(facedata)
img = cv2.imread(image)
minisize = (img.shape[1],img.shape[0])
miniframe = cv2.resize(img, minisize)
faces = cascade.detectMultiScale(miniframe)
for f in faces:
x, y, w, h = [ v for v in f ]
cv2.rectangle(img, (x,y), (x+w,y+h), (255,255,255))
sub_face = img[y:y+h, x:x+w]
fname, ext = os.path.splitext(image)
cv2.imwrite(fname+"_cropped_"+ext, sub_face)
return
facecrop("1.jpg")
Autocrop worked out for me pretty well.
It is as easy as autocrop -i pics -o crop -w 400 -H 400
.
You can get the usage in their readme file.
usage: autocrop [-h] [-i INPUT] [-o OUTPUT] [-r REJECT] [-w WIDTH] [-H HEIGHT]
[-v] [--no-confirm] [--facePercent FACEPERCENT] [-e EXTENSION]
Automatically crops faces from batches of pictures
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Folder where images to crop are located. Default:
current working directory
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT, -p OUTPUT, --path OUTPUT
Folder where cropped images will be moved to. Default:
current working directory, meaning images are cropped
in place.
-r REJECT, --reject REJECT
Folder where images that could not be cropped will be
moved to. Default: current working directory, meaning
images that are not cropped will be left in place.
-w WIDTH, --width WIDTH
Width of cropped files in px. Default=500
-H HEIGHT, --height HEIGHT
Height of cropped files in px. Default=500
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
--no-confirm Bypass any confirmation prompts
--facePercent FACEPERCENT
Percentage of face to image height
-e EXTENSION, --extension EXTENSION
Enter the image extension which to save at output
Just adding to @Israel Abebe's version. If you add a counter before image extension the algorithm will give all the faces detected. Attaching the code, same as Israel Abebe's. Just adding a counter and accepting the cascade file as an argument. The algorithm works beautifully! Thanks @Israel Abebe for this!

It will create a 'Data' directory in the current location even if this directory does not exist.
When a face is marked with a rectangle, press 'c' to capture the image and in the command prompt, it will ask for the name of the face. Put the name of the image and enter. You can find this image in the 'Data' directory.

You can install opencv

on OS X with brew install opencv imagemagick

facedetect
OpenCV CLI wrapper written in Python
https://github.com/wavexx/facedetect is a nice Python OpenCV CLI wrapper, and I have added the following example to their README.
Installation:
sudo apt install python3-opencv opencv-data imagemagick
git clone https://gitlab.com/wavexx/facedetect
git -C facedetect checkout 5f9b9121001bce20f7d87537ff506fcc90df48ca
Get my test image:
mkdir -p pictures
wget -O pictures/test.jpg https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cirosantilli/media/master/Ciro_Santilli_with_a_stone_carved_Budai_in_the_Feilai_Feng_caves_near_the_Lingyin_Temple_in_Hangzhou_in_2012.jpg
Usage:
mkdir -p faces
for file in pictures/*.jpg; do
name=$(basename "$file")
i=0
facedetect/facedetect --data-dir /usr/share/opencv4 "$file" |
while read x y w h; do
convert "$file" -crop ${w}x${h}+${x}+${y} "faces/${name%.*}_${i}.${name##*.}"
i=$(($i+1))
done
done
If you don't pass --data-dir
on this system, it fails with:
facedetect: error: cannot load HAAR_FRONTALFACE_ALT2 from /usr/share/opencv/haarcascades/haarcascade_frontalface_alt2.xml
and the file it is looking for is likely at: /usr/share/opencv4/haarcascades
on the system.
After running it, the file:
faces/test_0.jpg
contains:
which was extracted from the original image pictures/test.jpg
:
Budai was not recognized 🙁 If it had it would appear under faces/test_1.jpg
, but that file does not exist.
Let's try another one with faces partially turned https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cirosantilli/media/master/Ciro_Santilli_with_his_mother_in_law_during_his_wedding_in_2017.jpg
Hmmm, no hits, the faces are not clear enough for the software.
Tested on Ubuntu 20.10, OpenCV 4.2.0.
Another available option is dlib, which is based on machine learning approaches.
import dlib
from PIL import Image
from skimage import io
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def detect_faces(image):
# Create a face detector
face_detector = dlib.get_frontal_face_detector()
# Run detector and get bounding boxes of the faces on image.
detected_faces = face_detector(image, 1)
face_frames = [(x.left(), x.top(),
x.right(), x.bottom()) for x in detected_faces]
return face_frames
# Load image
img_path = 'test.jpg'
image = io.imread(img_path)
# Detect faces
detected_faces = detect_faces(image)
# Crop faces and plot
for n, face_rect in enumerate(detected_faces):
face = Image.fromarray(image).crop(face_rect)
plt.subplot(1, len(detected_faces), n+1)
plt.axis('off')
plt.imshow(face)
I think the best option is Google Vision API.
It's updated, it uses machine learning and it improves with the time.
You can check the documentation for examples:
https://cloud.google.com/vision/docs/other-features
the above codes work but this is recent implementation using OpenCV
I was unable to run the above by the latest and found something that works (from various places)
import cv2
import os
def facecrop(image):
facedata = "haarcascade_frontalface_alt.xml"
cascade = cv2.CascadeClassifier(facedata)
img = cv2.imread(image)
minisize = (img.shape[1],img.shape[0])
miniframe = cv2.resize(img, minisize)
faces = cascade.detectMultiScale(miniframe)
for f in faces:
x, y, w, h = [ v for v in f ]
cv2.rectangle(img, (x,y), (x+w,y+h), (255,255,255))
sub_face = img[y:y+h, x:x+w]
fname, ext = os.path.splitext(image)
cv2.imwrite(fname+"_cropped_"+ext, sub_face)
return
facecrop("1.jpg")
Autocrop worked out for me pretty well.
It is as easy as autocrop -i pics -o crop -w 400 -H 400
.
You can get the usage in their readme file.
usage: autocrop [-h] [-i INPUT] [-o OUTPUT] [-r REJECT] [-w WIDTH] [-H HEIGHT]
[-v] [--no-confirm] [--facePercent FACEPERCENT] [-e EXTENSION]
Automatically crops faces from batches of pictures
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Folder where images to crop are located. Default:
current working directory
-o OUTPUT, --output OUTPUT, -p OUTPUT, --path OUTPUT
Folder where cropped images will be moved to. Default:
current working directory, meaning images are cropped
in place.
-r REJECT, --reject REJECT
Folder where images that could not be cropped will be
moved to. Default: current working directory, meaning
images that are not cropped will be left in place.
-w WIDTH, --width WIDTH
Width of cropped files in px. Default=500
-H HEIGHT, --height HEIGHT
Height of cropped files in px. Default=500
-v, --version show program's version number and exit
--no-confirm Bypass any confirmation prompts
--facePercent FACEPERCENT
Percentage of face to image height
-e EXTENSION, --extension EXTENSION
Enter the image extension which to save at output
Just adding to @Israel Abebe's version. If you add a counter before image extension the algorithm will give all the faces detected. Attaching the code, same as Israel Abebe's. Just adding a counter and accepting the cascade file as an argument. The algorithm works beautifully! Thanks @Israel Abebe for this!

It will create a 'Data' directory in the current location even if this directory does not exist.
When a face is marked with a rectangle, press 'c' to capture the image and in the command prompt, it will ask for the name of the face. Put the name of the image and enter. You can find this image in the 'Data' directory.
