Acquisition of databases for facial analysis
Journal Title: Challenges of Modern Technology - Year 2016, Vol 7, Issue 3
Abstract
This article describes guidelines and recommendations for acquisition of databases for facial analysis. New devices and methods for both face recognition and facial expression recognition are constantly developed. In order to evaluate these devices and methods, dedicated datasets are recorded. Acquisition of a database for facial analysis is not an easy task and requires taking into account multiple issues. Based on our experience with recording databases for facial expression recognition, we provide guidelines regarding the acquisition process. Multiple aspects of such process are discussed in this work, namely selection of sensors and data streams, design and structure of the database, technical aspects, acquisition conditions and design of the user interface. Recommendations how to address these aspects are provided and justified. An acquisition software, designed according to these guidelines, is also discussed. The software was used for recording an extended version of our previous facial expression recognition database and proved to both ensure correct data and be convenient for the recorded subjects.
