The AT&T Database of Faces,
(formerly 'The ORL Database of Faces'), contains a set of face images taken
between April 1992 and April 1994. The database was used in the context of a
face recognition project carried out at Cambridge University <http://www.cam.ac.uk/>.
There are ten different images of each of 40 distinct subjects. For some
subjects, the images were taken at different times, varying the lighting,
facial expressions (open / closed eyes, smiling / not smiling) and
facial details (glasses / no glasses). All the images were taken against a
dark homogeneous background with the subjects in an upright, frontal position
(with tolerance for some side movement).
A preview image of the Database of Faces is shown below:
The files are in PGM format. The size of each image is 92x112 pixels, with
256 grey levels per pixel. There are 40 subjects, each subject having 10
different images.
