run(image, initial_shape, gt_shape=None, max_iters=20, return_costs=False, map_inference=False)[source]

Execute the optimization algorithm.

Parameters
• image (menpo.image.Image) – The input test image.

• initial_shape (menpo.shape.PointCloud) – The initial shape from which the optimization will start.

• gt_shape (menpo.shape.PointCloud or None, optional) – The ground truth shape of the image. It is only needed in order to get passed in the optimization result object, which has the ability to compute the fitting error.

• max_iters (int, optional) – The maximum number of iterations. Note that the algorithm may converge, and thus stop, earlier.

• return_costs (bool, optional) – If True, then the cost function values will be computed during the fitting procedure. Then these cost values will be assigned to the returned fitting_result. Note that this argument currently has no effect and will raise a warning if set to True. This is because it is not possible to evaluate the cost function of this algorithm.

• map_inference (bool, optional) – If True, then the solution will be given after performing MAP inference.

Returns

fitting_result (ParametricIterativeResult) – The parametric iterative fitting result.
