  In this paper, we present our method for enabling dense SDM to run at over 90
FPS on a mobile device. Our contributions are two-fold. Drawing inspiration
from the FFT, we propose a Sparse Compositional Regression (SCR) framework,
which enables a significant speed up over classical dense regressors. Second,
we propose a binary approximation to SIFT features. Binary Approximated SIFT
(BASIFT) features, which are a computationally efficient approximation to SIFT,
a commonly used feature with SDM. We demonstrate the performance of our
algorithm on an iPhone 7, and show that we achieve similar accuracy to SDM.
