Face Recognition Grand Challenge - Structure of The Face Recognition Grand Challenge

Structure of The Face Recognition Grand Challenge

The FRGC is structured around challenge problems that are designed to challenge researchers to meet the FRGC performance goal.

There are three aspects of the FRGC that will be new to the face recognition community. The first aspect is the size of the FRGC in terms of data. The FRGC data set contains 50,000 recordings. The second aspect is the complexity of the FRGC. Previous face recognition data sets have been restricted to still images. The FRGC will consist of three modes:

  • high resolution still images
  • 3D images
  • multi-images of a person.

The third new aspect is the infrastructure. The infrastructure for FRGC will be provided by the Biometric Experimentation Environment (BEE), an XML based framework for describing and documenting computational experiments. The BEE will allow the description and distribution of experiments in a common format, recording of the raw results of an experiment in a common format, analysis and presentation of the raw results in a common format, and documentation of the experiment format in a common format. This is the first time that a computational-experimental environment has supported a challenge problem in face recognition or biometrics.

Famous quotes containing the words structure of the, structure of, structure, face, recognition, grand and/or challenge:

    Just as a new scientific discovery manifests something that was already latent in the order of nature, and at the same time is logically related to the total structure of the existing science, so the new poem manifests something that was already latent in the order of words.
    Northrop Frye (b. 1912)

    I really do inhabit a system in which words are capable of shaking the entire structure of government, where words can prove mightier than ten military divisions.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)

    Each structure and institution here was so primitive that you could at once refer it to its source; but our buildings commonly suggest neither their origin nor their purpose.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    That neither present time, nor years unborn
    Could to my sight that heavenly face restore.
    William Wordsworth (1770–1850)

    Admiration. Our polite recognition of another’s resemblance to ourselves.
    Ambrose Bierce (1842–1914)

    The grand Perhaps! We look on helplessly,
    There the old misgivings, crooked questions are.
    Robert Browning (1812–1889)

    Men speak of natural rights, but I challenge any one to show where in nature any rights existed or were recognized until there was established for their declaration and protection a duly promulgated body of corresponding laws.
    Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
