How to preprocess the training dataset?

[WYao02]

Hi Radek,

Thanks for your amazing work! I saw you used DECA training data and affectnet data. I'm wondering if you could provide how to preprocess the dataset like vggface2? In DECA, they said they are using FAN to predict 68 2D landmark face_segmentation to get skin mask. But many details are not written, such as whether we need to crop and align the image, what size we need to use for getting landmark and skin mask... Would you please provide a way for us to preprocess the training data?

Thank you!

By the way, vggface2 is still available for academics at this link: https://academictorrents.com/details/535113b8395832f09121bc53ac85d7bc8ef6fa5b/tech&filelist=1 But the VoxCeleb2(https://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/data/voxceleb/vox2.html) seems not available...

Were you able to train DECA?
