TypeError when using align() on certain images in facealignment library

[blazerroadg]

Description I'm encountering a TypeError when attempting to align certain images using the facealignment library's align() function. While the function works as expected with some images, it throws an error with others, despite both types of images being seemingly similar (e.g., both are 3-channel images). import facealignment det2 = facealignment.FaceAlignmentTools() aligned_img, b, points= det2.align(img) # returning boxes, n_src_points from align function The function is expected to return the aligned image, bounding box, and facial landmarks without any errors, as it does with other images.

Environment Python version: 3.9.18 Operating System: windows10

Additional Context Both images that I tested (the one that works and the one that doesn't) are 3-channel RGB images and appear correctly when displayed. This suggests the issue may not be with the image format or structure.
