About This OTS Dataset
Introduction
Welcome to the South Asian Facial Expression Image Dataset, meticulously curated to enhance expression recognition models and support the development of advanced biometric identification systems, KYC models, and other facial recognition technologies.
Facial Expression Data
This dataset comprises over 2000 facial expression images, divided into participant-wise sets with each set including:
•
Expression Images:
5 different high-quality images per individual, each capturing a distinct facial emotion like Happy, Sad, Angry, Shocked, and Neutral.
Diversity and Representation
The dataset includes contributions from a diverse network of individuals across South Asian countries, such as:
•
Geographical Representation:
Participants from South Asian countries, including India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan, Maldives, and more.
•
Participant Profile:
Participants range from 18 to 70 years old, representing both males and females in 60:40 ratio, respectively.
•
File Format:
The dataset contains images in JPEG and HEIC file format.
Quality and Conditions
To ensure high utility and robustness, all images are captured under varying conditions:
•
Lighting Conditions:
Images are taken in different lighting environments to ensure variability and realism.
•
Backgrounds:
A variety of backgrounds are available to enhance model generalization.
•
Device Quality:
Photos are taken using the latest mobile devices to ensure high resolution and clarity.
Metadata
Each facial expression image set is accompanied by detailed metadata for each participant, including:
•Participant Identifier
•File Name
•Age
•Gender
•Country
•Expression
•Demographic Information
•File Format
This metadata is essential for training models that can accurately recognize and identify expressions across different demographics and conditions.
