MS-EVS Dataset

Multispectral Event-based Face detection dataset

Hyperspectral imagesImagesVideosMITIntroduced 2024-01-03

The MS-EVS Dataset is the first large-scale event-based dataset for face detection.

  • Regular images (APS) and simulated events (EVS)
  • Multispectral data (RGB and/or near IR)
  • Very diverse faces and data quality (for robust face detection)

It is divided in four subsets:

  • N-YoutubeFaces, 3k+ celebrity faces from Youtube videos, in color (simulated events).
  • N-MobiFace, 80 unedited mobile live color videos (simulated events).
  • N-SpectralFace, 69 multispectral videos captured in-house (simulated events).
  • Real-SpectralFace, a few sequences with real multispectral events (Grayscale and Infrared).
