Database Description

FRLL-Morphs is a dataset of morphed faces based on images selected from the publicly available Face Research London Lab dataset.
We created 4 types of morphs for each pre-selected pair of images using the following morphing tools:

Instructions

This dataset is planned for vulnerability analysis experiments in the context of face recognition.
Therefore, it is intended to be used in conjunction with the original Face Research London Lab dataset.

To prepare this folder's file structure so it may easily be used for such experiments:

  1. Download and extract only the `neutral_front` and `smiling_front` datasets from the Face London Research Dataset.
  2. Place them in a new facelab_london/raw folder.
  3. Rename them simply as `neutral` and `smiling` respectively.
  4. Remove the `.tem` files from the `neutral` folder if not specifically required for any experiments as these could clash with other operations.

Once completed the directory's structure should be as given below:

+-- facelab_london
|   +-- morph_amsl
|   +-- morph_facemorpher
|   +-- morph_opencv
|   +-- morph_stylegan
|   +-- morph_webmorph
|   +-- raw
|   +-- protocols
|   +-- preprocess.py
|   +-- README.txt

Protocols

The vulnerability analysis can be conducted in two ways, using:

  • morphed images as references (`reverse-protocol`)
  • morphed images as probes (`scores-protocol`)

The protocols for both types of experiments are provided in the `protocols` folder, each of which contains the file lists of detailing the exact images used as references (`for_models.lst`) and as probes (`for_probes.lst`) for each morphing tool.

The data is split into two sets, development (`dev`) and evaluation (`eval`), in order to be easily used by a toolkit such as bob. The split is made such as that no original identities used to make the morphed images overlap with one another, make the two sets completely independent of one another.
