Researchers at University of Massachusetts Amherst were developing algorithms for facial recognition and they needed more data. Between 2002-2004 they scraped Yahoo News for images of public figures. Two years later they cleaned up the dataset and repackaged it as Labeled Faces in the Wild (LFW).</p> -<p>Since then the LFW dataset has become one of the most widely used datasets used for evaluating face recognition algorithms. The associated research paper “Labeled Faces in the Wild: A Database for Studying Face Recognition in Unconstrained Environments” has been cited 996 times reaching 45 different countries throughout the world.</p> -<p>The faces come from news stories and are mostly celebrities from the entertainment industry, politicians, and villains. It’s a sampling of current affairs and breaking news that has come to pass. The images, detached from their original context now server a new purpose: to train, evaluate, and improve facial recognition.</p> -<p>As the most widely used facial recognition dataset, it can be said that each individual in LFW has, in a small way, contributed to the current state of the art in facial recognition surveillance. John Cusack, Julianne Moore, Barry Bonds, Osama bin Laden, and even Moby are amongst these biometric pillars, exemplar faces provided the visual dimensions of a new computer vision future.</p> -</section><section class='images'><div class='image'><img src='https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/megapixels/v1/datasets/lfw/assets/lfw_montage_1280.jpg' alt='The entire LFW dataset cropped to facial regions'><div class='caption'>The entire LFW dataset cropped to facial regions</div></div></section><section><p>In addition to commercial use as an evaluation tool, alll of the faces in LFW dataset are prepackaged into a popular machine learning code framework called scikit-learn.</p> -<h2>Facts</h2> -<p>The person with the most images is: -The person with the least images is:</p> -<h2>Commercial Use</h2> +<pre><code>load file: lfw_names_gender_kg_min.csv +Name, Images, Gender, Description +</code></pre> +</section><section class='images'><div class='image'><img src='https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com/megapixels/v1/datasets/lfw/assets/lfw_feature.jpg' alt='Eighteen of the 5,749 people in the Labeled Faces in the Wild Dataset.
