This website is based, in part, on an <a href="https://ahprojects.com/megapixels-glassroom/">earlier installations</a> and research about facial recognition datasets. Since then it has evolved into a large-scale survey of publicly-available face and person analysis datasets. Initially this site was planned as a facial recognition tool to search the datasets. After building several prototypes using over 1 million face images from these datasets, it became clear that facial recognition was mereley a face similar search. The results were not accurate enough to align with goals of this website: to promote responsible use of data and expose existing and past ethical breaches.</p> +<p>An academic report and presentation on the findings of this project is forthcoming.
