### Install Project Dependencies

Source: https://github.com/bytedance/lvface/blob/main/README.md

Install all required Python packages listed in the requirements.txt file using pip.

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

--------------------------------

### Navigate to Project Directory

Source: https://github.com/bytedance/lvface/blob/main/README.md

Change the current directory to the cloned LVFace project folder.

```bash
cd LVFace
```

### Run ONNX Inference with LVFace

Source: https://github.com/bytedance/lvface/blob/main/README.md

Initialize the inferencer and perform feature extraction from local images or URLs, then calculate similarity. Ensure model and image paths are correct.

```python
## Initialize the inferencer from inference_onnx.py
inferencer = LVFaceONNXInferencer(
   model_path="./models/vit_b_dp005_mask_005.onnx",  # Path to your ONNX model
   use_gpu=True  # Set to False for CPU-only inference
)

## Extract feature from local image
feat1 = inferencer.infer_from_image("path/to/image1.jpg")

## Extract feature from URL
feat2 = inferencer.infer_from_url("https://example.com/image1.jpg")

## Calculate cosine similarity
similarity = inferencer.calculate_similarity(feat1, feat2)
print(f"Similarity score: {similarity:.6f}")  # Output example: 0.892345
```

--------------------------------

### Run LVFace Model Evaluation

Source: https://github.com/bytedance/lvface/blob/main/README.md

Execute the evaluation script for LVFace models using pretrained weights. Specify the model prefix, result directory, and network architecture. Output is redirected to a log file.

```bash
python eval_ijbc.py \
  --model-prefix path/to/LVFace-B_Glint360K.pt \
  --result-dir results \
  --network vit_b_dp005_mask_005 > LVFace-B_Glint360K.log 2>&1 &
```

--------------------------------

### Clone LVFace Repository

Source: https://github.com/bytedance/lvface/blob/main/README.md

Clone the LVFace repository from GitHub to your local machine.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/bytedance/LVFace.git
```

--------------------------------
