Faces in Event Streams (FES): An Annotated Face Dataset for Event Cameras.

The use of event-based cameras in computer vision is a growing research direction. However, despite the existing research on face detection using the event camera, a substantial gap persists in the availability of a large dataset featuring annotations for faces and facial landmarks on event streams, thus hampering the development of applications in this direction. In this work, we address this issue by publishing the first large and varied dataset (Faces in Event Streams) with a duration of 689 min for face and facial landmark detection in direct event-based camera outputs.
