The RoboCup Rescue Victim Dataset

In this paper, we introduce a victim dataset for the RoboCup Rescue competitions. The RoboCup Rescue robots have to collect points within several disciplines, e.g. a search task within an area to survey simulated baby doll (victim). When a robot comes across a victim, a heat detector does not completely proof if this is a living being and not just a heat emitting somewhat else. Further investigations are necessary so that a face detection could prove the existence of a victim. Lots of face detection approaches can be found in literature, which manly are used for human face recognition. These cannot be straightforward used for victim faces which are, in case of the RoboCup Rescue competitions, typically dolls. Thus we present the results of standard approaches and developed an own approach via bag-of-visual-words (BoVW).
