FaceAPI

Branch Point

Branched from face-api.js version 0.22.2 released on March 22nd, 2020
https://github.com/justadudewhohacks/face-api.js
https://www.npmjs.com/package/face-api.js

Note

I don't plan to maintain a separate distribution of face-api, this is only a temporary repository to use latest available face-api with latest available tensorflow/js.
If original repository is updated, this one will become obsolete.

Differences

  • Removed tests, docs, examples

  • Updated all package dependencies

  • Removed unnecesary package dependencies (karma, jasmine, etc.)

  • Updated Typescript build process to target ES2020 instead of dual ES5/ES6

  • Modified to make compatible with TensorFlow/JS 2.0+

  • Trivial code changes for updated Typescript type checking

  • Changed browser bundle process to use ESBuild instead of Rollup

  • Updated tfjs dependencies since backends were removed from tfjs-core

  • Removed following models as they are either obsolete or non-functional with tfjs 2.0+

    • ssdMobilenetv1: Relies on batchNorm() function which is made obsolete in tfjs 2.0
    • mtcnn: Mostly obsolete
    • tinyYolov2: Non-functional since weights are missing

Which means the only valid model is tinyFaceDetector
