Large-scale testbed to test scalability of algorithms. For recognition, scale may be determined by number of
subjects and images For verification, it may be measured through the number
of image pairs available for training and testing
‘Real-world’, ‘uncontrolled’, ‘in the wild’ data to check practical application.
Have preset standardized training-testing partitions and uniform performance measures to allow fair and direct comparison of algorithms.

Key aspects Images: 2298 images from 43 subjects (26 Male ; 17 Female ) Mostly high quality 24-bit color digital images (30 scanned)
Annotations Subject: gender, blood-relations (if-any) Image: age, pose, facial hair, occlusions, spectacles
Distribution Large number of images per subject (depth vs. breadth) Largest number of intra-personal pairs (essential for verification) Good distribution of images in different age groups
‘Real-world’ with natural pose, expression and illumination variations

personal) is desired, which needs large number of images per subject taken across different age and imaging conditions.

Subject data Subject ID Gender Year of Birth

We include preset standard partitions (experiment sets) of VADANA for benchmarking purposes.
For each set Fixed the age gap bin Fix a maximum limit on intra-pairs per subject Sample dataset to obtain the intra-pairs Divide the intra-pairs into folds such that
▪ Subjects across folds are non-overlapping (hence training-testing subjects are non-overlapping) ▪ The number of pairs in each fold is nearly equal
Each fold also has a corresponding set of extra-pairs. The number of extra-pairs is equal to number of intra-pairs in the fold.
The different sets for each age gap has less than 60% overlap (by random sampling of images and pairs per subject)
Age gap # of intra-pairs per fold X # folds # of sets
[0,2] ~7000 X 5 folds 4
[3,5] ~240 X 3 folds 2
[6,8] ~ 145 X 2 folds 3

For each age gap, average the performance over the sets
For each set, Measure CAR and CRR for different parameters of the algorithm
▪ Correct Acceptance Rate (CAR)= # of correctly classified intra-pairs/ total # of intra-pairs
▪ Correct Rejection Rate (CRR) = # of correctly classified extra-pairs/ total # of extra-pairs
The ROC curve is obtained by plotting the CARs, CRRs (averaged
over the folds)
Accuracy is determined as performance at Equal Error Rate (EER). That is the CAR at the point where (CAR=CRR) on the ROC curve.

Baseline: Variant of eigenfaces Formed eigenfaces basis by using 10 randomly sampled images from subjects. Select
sufficient number of eigenvectors to explain at least 75% variation. Represent each face image using the eigenfaces basis by projection. Use difference of above representation as feature for a given image pair. Use Random Forest as classifier for binary classification of each pair as inter-pair or extra-pair.
Pair matching algorithm of Nowak et.al. 2007
Works by training classifiers based on features extracted from image patches. Implementation provided by authors. We have used same parameters as used for LFW dataset and found to be fairly stable with
slight changes.
State-of-the art face verification algorithm under age progression by Ling et. al. 2010. Gradient Orientation Pyramids used as features to train SVM classifiers (Gaussian kernel). Specifically designed to handle age separation in image pairs. Reported to be state-of-the-art
on FGNET and Passport dataset. No public implementation currently available. Our implementation was verified by closely
matching author results on FGNET.

Algorithms based on image difference (Eigenfaces, Ling et.al) seem to perform well on FGNET but not so on VADANA. While, Nowak pair matching is based on image patches, performs well on VADANA compared to the above two. Number of training pairs may be a contributing factor for Nowak success
since FGNET offers only 148 intra-pairs in [0,2], while VADANA offers 35,000. Image quality may also be a minor contributing factor (SIFT does better).

VADANA provides Real-world: A large-scale real world age annotated dataset. Depth vs. Breadth: Contains the largest number of intra-personal pairs in total and age
gaps of [0,2] and [3,5]. Various cross-sections: Offers different cross-sections and variations within and across
subjects (pose, expression, illumination and subject appearance) Distribution: Offers a good distribution of subjects and images in various ages and age-
gaps. Annotations: Annotated with subject and image data for various other facial analysis
algorithms. Benchmark: Offers multiple standard partitions for uniform comparisons.
Future directions
Detailed comparison between the different types of algorithm (patch-based vs. image difference) is better scalable for large scale age annotated real-world data.
Quantitative study of sensitivity of the algorithms to the different factors (age difference, gender, image quality, etc)
