Dlib VS nuklear

dlib

The apparent gender estimates from photos are using dlib, and I really ought to get what I'm doing cleaned up in such a way that other people can use it easily.

I really like dlib's code https://github.com/davisking/dlib

Additionally, C++ may be used for extremely high levels of optimization even for cloud-based ML. Dlib and Kaldi are C++ libraries used as dependencies in Python codebases for computer vision and audio processing, for example. So if your application requires you to customize any functions similar to those libraries, then you'll need C++ knowhow.

If you know C++, you don't need anything else. Go and learn APIs for C++ libraries. If you're into DSP, why not study Dlib?.

The data is mostly in this spreadsheet. The apparently facial gender estimates are made with Dlib. The mental health assessments are from Beck's Depression Inventory and the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale. The graph is made with gnuplot.

The plugin uses dlib library with a very fast HOG detector for both face recognition and detector following the relative examples.

The dlib facial recognition model thinks that I am now a distance of about 0.3 from where I started, which is far enough to start getting many false positive matches, but still within the design intent that different pictures of the same individual will be within 0.6 of each other.

Dlib's face recognition module thinks that I am about 0.25 units away from where I started; its design intent is that distinct individuals will be 0.6 or more apart, although in practice other people start showing up around 0.3.

There are SDL2 renderers for Nuklear, if you can live with the OpenGL dependency, see: https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear/tree/master/demo

Nuklear

You might want to try Nuklear https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear or imgui https://github.com/ocornut/imgui , both to my knowledge have a Vulkan backend

In fact, if using a modern graphics pipeline with shaders, you will actually have to learn how to draw a single rectangle to your screen, and then use that knowledge to draw (anti-aliased) lines, rectangles, arcs, circles, ellipses, etc. too. For instance, have a look at https://www.cairographics.org/ https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear https://github.com/memononen/nanovg and https://github.com/nical/lyon. There are probably also tutorials on how to draw vectorized graphics using OpenGL, Vulkan, etc.

It looks really great. And there are examples inside demo https://github.com/vurtun/nuklear/tree/master/demo I should investigatevthat for sure. Thanks

P.S.: I know Nuklear has got a node editor, but this editor is only in an early stage of development and Nuklear development has pretty much halted since Vurtun left.
