Description:

The SiblingsDB contains two different datasets depicting images of individuals related by sibling relationships. The first, called HQfaces, contains a set of high quality images depicting 184 individuals (92 pairs of siblings). A subset of 79 pairs contains profile images as well, and 56 of them have also smiling frontal and profile pictures. All the images are annotated with, respectively, the position of 76 landmarks on frontal images and 12 landmarks on profile images. For each individual the information on sex, birth date, age (the highest and average age differences between siblings are 30 and 4.6 years, respectively) and votes of the panel of human raters (who were asked to evaluate if the couples depict siblings or not) are also available. The second DB, called LQfaces, contains contains 98 pairs of siblings (196 individuals) found over the Internet, where most of the subjects are celebrities. The position of the 76 frontal facial landmarks are provided as well, but this dataset does not include the age information and human expert ratings were not collected since this dataset is composed mainly of well-known personages and, hence, likely to produce biased ratings.
