A new data set of face images with more faces and more accurate annotations for face regions than in previous data sets is presented and two rigorous and precise methods for evaluating the performance of face detection algorithms are proposed.
Abstract
Despite the maturity of face detection research, it remains difficult to compare different algorithms for face detection. This is partly due to the lack of common evaluation schemes. Also, existing data sets for evaluating face detection algorithms do not capture some aspects of face appearances that are manifested in real-world scenarios. In this work, we address both of these issues. We present a new data set of face images with more faces and more accurate annotations for face regions than in previous data sets. We also propose two rigorous and precise methods for evaluating the performance of face detection algorithms. We report results of several standard algorithms on the new benchmark.

Joint Face Detection and Alignment Using Multitask Cascaded Convolutional Networks

TL;DR: Zhang et al. as mentioned in this paper proposed a deep cascaded multitask framework that exploits the inherent correlation between detection and alignment to boost up their performance, which leverages a cascaded architecture with three stages of carefully designed deep convolutional networks to predict face and landmark location in a coarse-to-fine manner.

WIDER FACE: A Face Detection Benchmark

TL;DR: There is a gap between current face detection performance and the real world requirements, and the WIDER FACE dataset, which is 10 times larger than existing datasets is introduced, which contains rich annotations, including occlusions, poses, event categories, and face bounding boxes.

A convolutional neural network cascade for face detection

TL;DR: This work proposes a cascade architecture built on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with very powerful discriminative capability, while maintaining high performance, and introduces a CNN-based calibration stage after each of the detection stages in the cascade.

Synergistic face detection and pose estimation with energy-based models

TL;DR: A novel method for real-time, simultaneous multi-view face detection and facial pose estimation that employs a convolutional network to map face images to points on a manifold, parametrized by pose, and non-face images to Points far from that manifold is described.
