  Give the path of the image on which you want to run this code
  Command that you need to run: python face_detection_example.py 
  

• face_detection_GPU_example.py

   This script find the faces form the image. 
   This code can run on GPU
   Give the path of the image on which you want to run this code
   Command that you need to run: python face_detection_GPU_example.py
