The camera-ready has not yet been submitted. If you see typos or errors, please let us know and we will try to correct them. New results page:

We have recently updated and changed the format and content of our results page. Please refer to the new technical report for details of the changes. Welcome to Labeled Faces in the Wild, a database of face photographs designed for studying the problem of unconstrained face recognition. The data set contains more than 13,000 images of faces collected from the web. Each face has been labeled with the name of the person pictured. 1680 of the people pictured have two or more distinct photos in the data set. The only constraint on these faces is that they were detected by the Viola-Jones face detector. More details can be found in the technical report below.

There are now four different sets of LFW images including the original and three different types of "aligned" images. The aligned images include "funneled images" (ICCV 2007), LFW-a, which uses an unpublished method of alignment, and "deep funneled" images (NIPS 2012). Among these, LFW-a and the deep funneled images produce superior results for most face verification algorithms over the original images and over the funneled images (ICCV 2007).

Training, Validation, and Testing:

View 1:

For development purposes, we recommend using the below training/testing split, which was generated randomly and independently of the splits for 10-fold cross validation, to avoid unfairly overfitting to the sets above during development. For instance, these sets may be viewed as a model selection set and a validation set. See the tech report below for more details.

Results:

Accuracy and ROC curves for various methods available on results page.

Information:

• 13233 images
• 5749 people
• 1680 people with two or more images

Errata:

The following is a list of known errors in LFW. Due to the small number of such errors, the database will be left as is (without corrections) to avoid confusion.

It is important that users of the database provide their algorithms with the databaseas is, i.e. without correcting the errors below, since previous results published for the database did not have the advantage of correcting for these errors.

Currently, there are five incorrectly labeled matched pairs in View 2. While we do not believe this should have a significant effect on accuracy, we do encourage researchers to be aware of these errors when producing any visualizations (e.g. matched pairs most confidently predicted as mismatched, as the matched pair may actually be mismatched).

The current known errors in View 2 are:
Fold 1: Janica_Kostelic_0001, Janica_Kostelic_0002
Fold 1: Nora_Bendijo_0001, Nora_Bendijo_0002
Fold 5: Jim_OBrien_0001, Jim_OBrien_0002
Fold 5: Jim_OBrien_0001, Jim_OBrien_0003
Fold 5: Elisabeth_Schumacher_0001, Elisabeth_Schumacher_0002

More detail about all the errors is given below.

Note: unless stated otherwise below, any error in a matched pair will mean that the label ("matched") is wrong. Any error in a mismatched pair, even with the person having the wrong identity, will generally be correct (the label of "mismatched" will still be correct).

• Recep_Tayyip_Erdogan_0004 is incorrect (it is an image of Abdullah Gul):
  
  
  This image appears only in one matched pair in the training set of View 1:

  Recep Tayyip Erdogan, 2

  Recep Tayyip Erdogan, 4

• Anja_Paerson_0001 is incorrect (it is an image of Janica Kostelic):
  
  
  This image does not appear in a matched or mismatched pair, in either view.
  
  
• Janica_Kostelic_0001 is incorrect (it is an image of Anja Paerson):
  
  
  This image appears in one matched pair in the test set of View 1, and the same matched pair and one mismatched pair (with Don_Carcieri_0001) in fold 1 of View 2:

  Janica Kostelic, 1

  Janica Kostelic, 2

• Bart_Hendricks_0001 is incorrect (it is a duplicate image of Ricky_Ray_0001):
  
  
  This image appears in two mismatched pairs in the training set of View 1, and one mismatched pair in fold 2 of View 2. (None of the mismatched pairs are with Ricky_Ray.)
  
  
• Carlos_Beltran_0001 is incorrect (it is a duplicate image of Raul_Ibanez_0001):
  
  
  This image appears in one mismatched pair in the test set of View 1, and one mismatched pair in fold 5 of View 2. (None of the mismatched pairs are with Raul_Ibanez.)
  
  
• Emmy_Rossum_0001 is incorrect (it is a duplicate image of Eva_Amurri_0001):
  
  
  This image appears in one mismatched pair in the test set of View 1 (the mismatched pair is not with Eva_Amurri).
  
  
• Michael_Schumacher_0008 is incorrect (it is an image of Rubens Barrichello):
  
  
  This image does not appear in a matched or mismatched pair, in either view.
  
  
• Mahmoud_Abbas_0012 is incorrect (it is an image of Hamad Bin Isa al-Khalifa):
  
  
  This image does not appear in a matched or mismatched pair, in either view.
  
  
• Jim_OBrien contains two distinct persons. Specifically, Jim_OBrien_0001 is a different person from Jim_OBrien_0002, Jim_OBrien_0003.
  
  This leads to an error in two matched pairs (0001 with 0002; 0001 with 0003), present in both the training set of View 1 and fold 5 of View 2:

  Jim OBrien, 1	Jim OBrien, 2
  Jim OBrien, 1	Jim OBrien, 3

• John_Gruden_0001 is an incorrect spelling of Jon_Gruden.
  
  
  This image appears in a mismatched pair in fold 3 of View 2 (not with Jon_Gruden).
  
  
• Elisabeth_Schumacher contains two distinct persons, where the correct spelling of Elisabeth_Schumacher_0001 is actually Elizabeth Schumacher. This leads to a incorrect matched pair in both the test set of View 1 and fold 5 of View 2.

  Elisabeth Schumacher, 1

  Elisabeth Schumacher, 2

• Andrew_Gilligan_0001 is actually an image of Andrew_Caldecott.
  
  
  This image appears in a mismatched pair in the training set of View 1 and in fold 1 of View 2 (neither with Andrew_Caldecott).
  
  
• Nora_Bendijo_0002 is actually an image of Flor Montulo, andFlor_Montulo_0002 is actually an image of Nora_Bendijo
  

  Nora Bendijo, 1 correct label	Nora Bendijo, 2 is actually Flor Montulo
  Flor Montulo, 1 correct label	Flor Montulo, 2 is actually Nora Bendijo

  Nora_Bendijo_0002 appears in an incorrect matched pair in fold 1 of View 2.
  Flor_Montulo_0002 appears in an incorrect matched pair in the test set of View 1, and in a mismatched pair in fold 1 of View 2, but not with Nora_Bendijo.
  
  
• Wang_Yingfan and Yingfan_Wang are the same person. The two names are never together in a mismatched pair.
  
  
• Wang_Nan and Nan_Wang are the same person. The two names are never together in a mismatched pair.
  
  
• Talisa_Bratt and Talisa_Soto are the same person.
  
  
  These images never appear in a mismatched pair together.
  
  
• Shinya_Taniguchi_0001 is actually an image of Takahiro_Mori.
  
  
  This image never appears in a mismatched pair with an image of Takahiro_Mori.

• CASIA WebFace Database
  
  "While there are many open source implementations of CNN, none of large scale face dataset is publicly available. The current situation in the field of face recognition is that data is more important than algorithm. To solve this problem, we propose a semi-automatical way to collect face images from Internet and build a large scale dataset containing 10,575 subjects and 494,414 images, called CASIA-WebFace. To the best of our knowledge, the size of this dataset rank second in the literature, only smaller than the private dataset of Facebook (SCF). We encourage those data-consuming methods training on this dataset and reporting performance on LFW. "
  
  
• LFW3D - collection of frontalized LFW images and Matlab code for frontalization
  
  "Frontalization is the process of synthesizing frontal facing views of faces appearing in single unconstrained photos. Recent reports have suggested that this process may substantially boost the performance of face recognition systems... we explore the simpler approach of using a single, unmodified, 3D surface as an approximation to the shape of all input faces. We show that this leads to a straightforward, efficient and easy to implement method for frontalization. More importantly, it produces aesthetic new frontal views and is surprisingly effective when used for face recognition and gender estimation."
