DeitY-TU Face Dataset








The DeitY-TU Face Database contains 49,780 images of 524 subjects collected from five different states of northeastern India (Mizoram, Assam, Tripura, Nagaland, Manipur) i.e. Mongoloid Race with different ethnic background (Meghalayan, Nagamese, Mizo, Arunachali and Manipuri). Database images are captured with the combined challenges of illumination (4), expression (8), and pose (5). Five different poses are available for each combination of illumination and expression in the database. Soft biometric features such as moles, scars, and freckles are also present in 126, 39, and 17 individuals’ faces, respectively along with ground truth information.
