• Python == 3.8

• python -m venv venv
• .\venv\Scripts\activate
• If any problem for scripts activation
  • Execute following command in administration mode
    • Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Force
  • Later you can revert the change
    • Set-ExecutionPolicy restricted -Force

• python -m venv venv
• source venv/bin/activate

• Library Install
  • pip install --upgrade pip
  • pip install --upgrade setuptools
  • pip install -r requirements.txt
  • To run in web interface
    • pip install -r web_requirements.txt

It will generate the output file in output/ folder

• python inference.py --image image_path [Without background image]
• python inference.py --image image_path --background True [With background image]
• Example:
  • python inference.py --image assets/sample_image/female.jpeg
  • python inference.py --image assets/sample_image/male.jpeg --background True

It will generate the output file in output/ folder

• python inference.py --folder folder_path [Without background image]
• python inference.py --folder folder_path --background True [With background image]
• Example:
  • python inference.py --folder assets/sample_image/
  • python inference.py --folder assets/sample_image/ --background True

It will generate the output file in output/ folder

• python inference.py --video video_path [Without background image]
• python inference.py --video video_path --background True [With background image]
• Example:
  • python inference.py --video assets/sample_video/sample.mp4
  • python inference.py --video assets/sample_video/sample.mp4 --background True

• python inference.py --webcam True [Without background image]
• python inference.py --webcam True --background True [With background image]
