Description[edit | ]
The Face Recognition Technology (FERET) dataset was thus created with $6.5 million<ul><li>No units of measurement were declared for this property.</li> <!--br--><li>"$" is not declared as a valid unit of measurement for this property.</li></ul> of funding from the U.S. Department of Defense and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to provide researchers the data they required to make progress in the field. In 15 photography sessions of the same set up between August 1993 and July 1996, images were collected in a semi-controlled environment (Phillips et al. 2000b)1. 2:2
The resulting benchmark began with 2,413 still face images, representing 856 individuals, and grew to contain 14,126 facial images of 1,199 individuals, available upon request. 2
