dlib 19.0.0

A toolkit for making real world machine learning and data analysis applications

dlib C++ library

Dlib is a modern C++ toolkit containing machine learning algorithms and tools
for creating complex software in C++ to solve real world problems. See
http://dlib.net for the main project documentation and API reference.



COMPILING DLIB C++ EXAMPLE PROGRAMS
Go into the examples folder and type:
mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. ; cmake --build .
That will build all the examples. If you have a CPU that supports AVX
instructions then turn them on like this:
mkdir build; cd build; cmake .. -DUSE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS=1; cmake --build .
Doing so will make some things run faster.

COMPILING DLIB Python API
Before you can run the Python example programs you must compile dlib. Type:
python setup.py install
or type
python setup.py install --yes USE_AVX_INSTRUCTIONS
if you have a CPU that supports AVX instructions, since this makes some
things run faster.

RUNNING THE UNIT TEST SUITE
Type the following to compile and run the dlib unit test suite:
cd dlib/test
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --config Release
./dtest --runall

Note that on windows your compiler might put the test executable in a
subfolder called Release. If that's the case then you have to go to that
folder before running the test.
