Of these 24 million images, over 15 million face images are from Internet search engines, over 5.8 million from Flickr.com, over 2.5 million from the Internet Movie Database (IMDb.com), and nearly 500,000 from CCTV footage. All 24 million images were collected without any explicit consent, a type of face image that researchers call "in the wild".</p> <p>Next we manually verified 1,134 publicly available research papers that cite these datasets to determine who was using the data and where it was being used. Even though the vast majority of the images originated in the United States, the publicly available research citations show that only about 25% citations are from the country of the origin while the majority of citations are from China.</p> -</section><section><div class='columns columns-2'><section class='applet_container'><div class='applet' data-payload='{"command": "single_pie_chart /site/research/munich_security_conference/assets/megapixels_origins_top.csv", "fields": ["Caption: Sources of Publicly Available Non-Cooperative Face Image Training Data 2006 - 2018", "Top: 10", "OtherLabel: Other"]}'></div></section><section class='applet_container'><div class='applet' data-payload='{"command": "single_pie_chart /site/research/munich_security_conference/assets/summary_countries.csv", "fields": ["Caption: Locations Where Face Data Is Used Based on Public Research Citations", "Top: 14", "OtherLabel: Other"]}'></div></section></div></section><section><h3>6,000 Embassy Photos Being Used To Train Facial Recognition</h3> -<p>Of the 5.8 million Flickr images we found over 6,000 public photos from Embassy Flickr accounts were used to train facial recognition technologies.
