This package is a simple Python wrapper to the (rather quick) open-source
facial landmark detector Flandmark_, **version 1.0.7** (or the github state
as of 10/february/2013).  If you use this package, the author asks you to cite
the following paper:

.. code-block:: latex

  @inproceedings{Uricar-Franc-Hlavac-VISAPP-2012,
    author =      {U\v{r}i\v{c}\'a\v{r}, Michal and Franc, Vojt\v{e}ch and Hlav\'a\v{c}, V\'{a}clav},
    title =       {Detector of Facial Landmarks Learned by the Structured Output {SVM}},
    year =        {2012},
    pages =       {547-556},
    booktitle =   {VISAPP '12: Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Computer Vision Theory and Applications},
    editor =      {Csurka, Gabriela and Braz, Jos{\'{e}}},
    publisher =   {SciTePress --- Science and Technology Publications},
    address =     {Portugal},
    volume =      {1},

    day =         {24-26},
    venue =       {Rome, Italy},
    keywords =    {Facial Landmark Detection, Structured Output Classification, Support Vector Machines, Deformable Part Models},
    prestige =    {important},
    authorship =  {50-40-10},
    status =      {published},
    project =     {FP7-ICT-247525 HUMAVIPS, PERG04-GA-2008-239455 SEMISOL, Czech Ministry of Education project 1M0567},
