Brainwash Dataset

Published
@@ -80,7 +80,9 @@

The Brainwash dataset is unique because it uses images from a publicly available webcam that records people inside a privately owned business without any consent. No ordinary cafe customer would ever suspect that their image would end up in dataset used for surveillance research and development, but that is exactly what happened to customers at Brainwash cafe in San Francisco.

Although Brainwash appears to be a less popular dataset, it was notably used in 2016 and 2017 by researchers affiliated with the National University of Defense Technology in China for two research projects on advancing the capabilities of object detection to more accurately isolate the target region in an image. 3 4 The National University of Defense Technology is controlled by China's top military body, the Central Military Commission.

The Brainwash dataset also appears in a 2018 research paper affiliated with Megvii (Face++) that used images from Brainwash Cafe "to validate the generalization ability of [their] CrowdHuman dataset for head detection." 5. Megvii is the parent company of Face++, who has provided surveillance technology to monitor Uighur Muslims in Xinjiang and may be blacklisted in the United States.
