Need face alignment feature

[ghost]

Currently repo doesn't include face alignment which was part of the original work of joint face detection and alignment , does any body has an idea how it can be achieved ?

If you want to align two faces, run MTCNN on both of them and use openCV to get an affine transformation matrix using getAffineTransform, matching the respective landmarks. Then take the first face and apply the resulting transformation using warpAffine.

do you have an example of how to do that cause i don't really understand.
Which one is better between dlib cnn and mtcnn?

Same problem. The original paper completes the face alignment. But current repo doesn't.
And if the face with a tilt angle of more than 45 degrees, the performance of marking the landmark by this repo is not very good.

@neuneck can you provide an example for the alignment?
