The POSTECH face database (PF07) and performance evaluation

We constructed a face database POSTECH face database (PF07). PF07 contains the true-color face images of 200 people, 100 men and 100 women, representing 320 various images (5 pose variations times 4 expression variations times 16 illumination variations) per person. All of the people in the database are Korean. We also present the results of face recognition experiments under various conditions using three baseline face recognition algorithms in order to provide an example evaluation protocol on the database. The database is expected to be used to evaluate the algorithm of face recognition for Korean people or for people with systematic variations.
