Description: Face Morpher
        ============
        
        | Warp, average and morph human faces!
        | Scripts will automatically detect frontal faces and skip images if
          none is detected.
        
        Built with Python, OpenCV, Numpy, Scipy, Stasm.
        
        Supports Python 2.7 / Python 3+ and OpenCV 2.4.9 / OpenCV 3.0

        Steps (facemorpher folder)
        --------------------------
        
        1. Locator
        ^^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  Locates face points (using `stasm`_)
        -  For a different locator, return an array of (x, y) control face
           points
        
        2. Aligner
        ^^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  Align faces by resizing, centering and cropping to given size
        
        3. Warper
        ^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  Given 2 images and its face points, warp one image to the other
        -  Triangulates face points
        -  Affine transforms each triangle with bilinear interpolation
        
        4a. Morpher
        ^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  Morph between 2 or more images
        
        4b. Averager
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        -  Average faces from 2 or more images
        
        Blender
        ^^^^^^^
        
        Optional blending of warped image:
        
        -  Weighted average
        -  Alpha feathering
        -  Poisson blend
        
        Examples - `Being John Malkovich`_
        ----------------------------------
        
        Create a morphing video between the 2 images:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        | ``> python facemorpher/morpher.py --src=alyssa.jpg --dest=john_malkovich.jpg``
        | ``--out_video=out.avi``
        
        (out.avi played and recorded as gif)
        
        .. figure:: https://raw.github.com/alyssaq/face_morpher/master/examples/being_john_malvokich.gif
           :alt: gif
        
        Save the frames to a folder:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        | ``> python facemorpher/morpher.py --src=alyssa.jpg --dest=john_malkovich.jpg``
        | ``--out_frames=out_folder --num=30``
        
        Plot the frames:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        | ``> python facemorpher/morpher.py --src=alyssa.jpg --dest=john_malkovich.jpg``
        | ``--num=12 --plot``
        
        .. figure:: https://raw.github.com/alyssaq/face_morpher/master/examples/plot.png
           :alt: plot
        
        Average all face images in a folder:
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        
        85 images used
        
        | ``> python facemorpher/averager.py --images=images --blur --alpha``
        | ``--width=220 --height=250``
        
        .. figure:: https://raw.github.com/alyssaq/face_morpher/master/examples/average_faces.png
           :alt: average\_faces

        Use as pip library
        ---------------------------------
        ::
        
            $ pip install facemorpher
        
        Examples
        ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
        Additional options are exactly the same as the command line
        
        ::
        
            import facemorpher
        
            # Get a list of image paths in a folder
            imgpaths = facemorpher.list_imgpaths('imagefolder')
        
            # To morph, supply an array of face images:
            facemorpher.morpher(imgpaths, plot=True)
        
            # To average, supply an array of face images:
            facemorpher.averager(['image1.png', 'image2.png'], plot=True)
        
        
        Details
        ------------
        -  Data for the haar face classifiers are in the ``facemorpher/data``
           folder
        -  Stasm binary in ``facemorpher/bin/stasm_util``. You can build a new
           stasm binary with the `Stasm 4 build scripts`_.
