Thermal and Visible Images

The dataset contains thermal and visible images of volunteers taken in different places to develop face detection algorithms. By providing both thermal and visible face images in a single dataset, our dataset empowers researchers, scientists, and developers to leverage the strengths of each image type. The dataset can be utilized for tasks like biometric authentication, emotion recognition, facial expression analysis, age estimation, and gender classification. It serves as a valuable resource for building robust machine learning models, conducting experiments, and advancing the understanding of human facial analysis.  We invite users to explore and utilize our thermal and visible face image dataset, contributing to advancements in the fields of computer vision, pattern recognition, and artificial intelligence.Note: The dataset is only for educational and research purpose and cite the following article if you use the dataset. Krishnan, P.T., Balasubramanian, P., Jeyakumar, V. et al.
