Abstract

This paper introduces a database of over 3,600 color images which we collected from 616 different human faces. It includes facial images of people between ages 2-85. Face images of persons with different ages is needed to generate a reliable age classification algorithm. Four different poses, two different expressions, and one image with glasses were taken if the subjects were interested. Information such as career, kind of skin, fingerprint, and cosmetic points (surgical points, fracture or laceration on face) is taken from participants. The background was a white frame and the only illumination was the daylight. We named this database the Iranian face database (IFDB). To evaluate the database the experimental result of a new feature detection algorithm is reported.
