Description[edit | ]
The dataset leveraged the Web to source the first fully unconstrained face dataset with over 13,000 images of 1,680 faces in an infinite combination of poses, illumination conditions, and expressions (Huang et al. 2007). 1
LFW inspired a flurry ofWeb-scraped face datasets for facial recognition model training and benchmarking - including many datasets sourcing images without consent from online platforms, such as Google Image search (Bainbridge, Isola, and Oliva 2013; Han et al. 2017; Cao et al. 2018b), Youtube (Chen et al. 2017; Dantcheva, Chen, and Ross 2012), Flickr (Merler et al. 2019; Kemelmacher-Shlizerman et al. 2016) and Yahoo News (Jain and Learned-Miller 2010). 1
