For custom dataset, Which keypoint model should I use? about depthnets HOT 1 OPEN

Hi,

Sorry for the enormously long delay in response, I am sure by now my response is most likely irrelevant because you've either found the answer or moved onto something else. No DepthNet by itself cannot regress 2D keypoints. Internally, when we needed to extract 2D keypoints from a face we used @SinaHonari 's recombinator network, though if I remember correctly the implementation was in Theano (which by today's standards is ancient). You should use whatever off-the-shelf keypoint extractor you can find online (there should be many).

If the keypoint extractor ends up extracting 68 keypoints, you could use this diagram to help you figure out what two keypoint coordinates you need to remove in order to make it 66 (it's a bit of a hack but it should suffice):
