I need to localize facial landmarks as a part of my research project and planning to use Supervised Descent Method (SDM) for that. Both the C++ and Matlab versions are available at the following site and when I contacted them they said C++ version is not going to be available until they secure it. So, I had no other option and had to opt for Matlab version.

The problem is that My project is in C++ and OpenCV. I wonder whether there is a way to access Matlab version of SDM in Visual C++ . I mean, is there an integration mechanism available for that ?
And, the next issue is when executing the "Facial Feature Detection" code available at the above site I get the following error. I executed it as given below.
[detected_points] = xx_track_detect(Model,[],image,[],options);
and, it says "undefined function or variable named 'model' "
anyone have a solution to this ?
It seems like you need to use Matlab engine to be able to execute Matlab commands from C++. The engine interface allows you to do just so.
Regarding the model variable - it is probably a representation of the learned model for facial landmarks, it should be supplied with the packge or you need to tune it by yourself. Without additional information I suggest you contact the publishers of the package for more information.
