1. IMAGE DATABASE I
Purpose: Supporting academic research of ear recognition
Subject: Students and teachers from the department of Information Engineering, USTB. The total
number of volunteers is 60.
Date: Jul 2002 —Aug 2002
Condition: The right ear is photographed with digital camera.
Detail:
Every volunteer is photographed three different images. They are normal frontal image,
frontal image with trivial angle rotation and image under different lighting condition. Each of
them has 256 gray scales. Images had already experienced rotation and shearing, but they were
without illumination compensation. Some images of the database are shown in the figure 1, in
which three images in series belong to a single person.
2. IMAGE DATABASE II
Purpose: Supporting the academic research of ear recognition methods, particularly under lighting
and angle variations, as well as ear image pre-processing methods.
Subject: Students and teachers from the department of Information Engineering, USTB. The total
number of volunteers is 77.
Date: Nov 2003-Jan 2004
Condition:
The subject’s head in right hand view is photographed by CCD camera. The distance between
subject and camera is fixed to 2 meters. In terms of illumination variations and angle variations,
we adopt methods illustrated in the figure 2 and figure 3 respectively. In the figures, S represents
the subject, C represents the camera and Lx represents the lamp (L1 represents the one right above
the subject and L2 and L3 have certain angle changes from the subject).
