Facial-Landmark-Detection: Optimized for Qualcomm Devices

Detects facial landmarks (eg, nose, mouth, etc.). This model's architecture was developed by Qualcomm. The model was trained by Qualcomm on a proprietary dataset of faces, but can be used on any image.

This repository contains pre-exported model files optimized for Qualcomm® devices. You can use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models library to export with custom configurations. More details on model performance across various devices, can be found here.

Qualcomm AI Hub Models uses Qualcomm AI Hub Workbench to compile, profile, and evaluate this model. Sign up to run these models on a hosted Qualcomm® device.

Option 2: Export with Custom Configurations

Use the Qualcomm® AI Hub Models Python library to compile and export the model with your own:

• Custom weights (e.g., fine-tuned checkpoints)
• Custom input shapes
• Target device and runtime configurations

This option is ideal if you need to customize the model beyond the default configuration provided here.

See our repository for Facial-Landmark-Detection on GitHub for usage instructions.
