Face analysis technology is a rapidly growing biometric software discipline with wide-ranging applications in surveillance, forensics, game design, and social media. As with other machine learning domains, Python has several libraries for computer vision, image analysis, and pattern recognition that make it ideal for facial analysis.

This course is a hands-on introduction to facial recognition with three unique libraries—MediaPipe, Dlib, and DeepFace. You’ll start with face detection, landmarking, and face alignment before exploring common analytics like age, gender, and emotional prediction based on facial expressions. Next, you’ll identify common facial features before transforming them by adding blurring, sketching, and cartoon effects or swapping color palettes. You’ll finish by performing full makeover functions, manipulating cheeks, lips, eyes, and brows.

By the end of this course, you’ll have a strong foundation in popular facial recognition and manipulation libraries in Python.
