# This example program shows how you can use dlib to make a HOG based object
# detector for things like faces, pedestrians, and any other semi-rigid
# object.  In particular, we go though the steps to train the kind of sliding
# window object detector first published by Dalal and Triggs in 2005 in the
# paper Histograms of Oriented Gradients for Human Detection.
#
#
# COMPILING/INSTALLING THE DLIB PYTHON INTERFACE
#   You can install dlib using the command:
#       pip install dlib
#
#   Alternatively, if you want to compile dlib yourself then go into the dlib
#   root folder and run:
#       python setup.py install
#
#   Compiling dlib should work on any operating system so long as you have
#   CMake installed.  On Ubuntu, this can be done easily by running the
#   command:
#       sudo apt-get install cmake
#
#   Also note that this example requires Numpy which can be installed
#   via the command:
#       pip install numpy

# In this example we are going to train a face detector based on the small
# faces dataset in the examples/faces directory.  This means you need to supply
# the path to this faces folder as a command line argument so we will know
# where it is.

# Now let's do the training.  The train_simple_object_detector() function has a

# The trainer is a kind of support vector machine and therefore has the usual
# SVM C parameter.  In general, a bigger C encourages it to fit the training
# data better but might lead to overfitting.  You must find the best C value
# empirically by checking how well the trained detector works on a test set of
# images you haven't trained on.  Don't just leave the value set at 5.  Try a
# few different C values and see what works best for your data.

# detector.svm.  The input is an XML file that lists the images in the training
# dataset and also contains the positions of the face boxes.  To create your
# own XML files you can use the imglab tool which can be found in the
# tools/imglab folder.  It is a simple graphical tool for labeling objects in
# images with boxes.  To see how to use it read the tools/imglab/README.txt
# file.  But for this example, we just use the training.xml file included with
# dlib.

# Now that we have a face detector we can test it.  The first statement tests
# it on the training data.  It will print(the precision, recall, and then)
# average precision.

# In this example we load detector.svm again since it's the only one we have on
# hand. But in general it would be a different detector.
