## Introduction
this repository is the implementation of MTCNN in MXnet
* `core`: core routines for MTCNN training and testing.
* `tools`: utilities for training and testing
* `data`: Refer to `Data Folder Structure` for dataset reference. Usually dataset contains `images` and `imglists`
* `model`: Folder to save training symbol and model
* `prepare_data`: scripts for generating training data for pnet, rnet and onet

## Useful information
You're required to modify mxnet/src/regression_output-inl.h according to mxnet_diff.patch before using the code for training.

* Dataset format
The images used for training are stored in ./data/dataset_name/images/
The annotation file is placed in ./data/dataset_name/imglists/

* For training:
Each line of the annotation file states a training sample.
The format is:
[path to image] [cls_label] [bbox_label]
cls_label: 1 for positive, 0 for negative, -1 for part face.
bbox_label are the offset of x1, y1, x2, y2, calculated by (xgt(ygt) - x(y)) / width(height)
An example would be `12/positive/28 1 -0.05 0.11 -0.05 -0.11`.
Note that all the strings are seperated by space.

* For testing:
Similar to training but only path-to-image is needed.

* Data Folder Structure (suppose root is `data`)
```
cache (created by imdb)
-- name + image set + gt_roidb
-- results (created by detection and evaluation)
mtcnn # contains images and anno for training mtcnn
-- images
---- 12 (images of size 12 x 12, used by pnet)
---- 24 (images of size 24 x 24, used by rnet)
---- 48 (images of size 48 x 48, used by onet)
-- imglists
---- train_12.txt
---- train_24.txt
---- train_48.txt
custom (datasets for testing)
-- images
-- imglists
---- image_set.txt
```

* Scripts to generate training data(from wider face dataset)
* run wider_annotations/transform.m (or transform.py) to get the annotation file of the format we need.
* gen_pnet_data.py: obtain training samples for pnet
* gen_hard_example.py: prepare hard examples.
you can set test_mode to "pnet" to get training data for rnet,
or set test_mode to "rnet" to get training data for onet.
* gen_imglist.py: ramdom sample images generated by gen_pnet_data.py or gen_hard_example.py to form training set.
