Convert wider annotation text files using the following commands:

$ python convert.py -ap ./wider_face_split/wider_face_train_bbx_gt.txt -td ./WIDER_train_annotations/ -id ./WIDER_train/images/
$ python convert.py -ap ./wider_face_split/wider_face_val_bbx_gt.txt -td ./WIDER_val_annotations/ -id ./WIDER_val/images/

Note: the convert.py is modified from here to
