New dataset Bengal-HP_RU released for Bengali head pose estimation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced Bengal-HP_RU, a new dataset designed to address the underrepresentation of South Asian populations in head pose estimation research. This dataset contains over 12,800 labeled images of Bengali individuals, annotated with precise yaw, pitch, and roll values. Collected from Wikimedia Commons and processed with a combination of automated and manual methods, Bengal-HP_RU aims to provide a diverse and realistic 'in-the-wild' dataset for training and testing head pose estimation models. AI

IMPACT Addresses a gap in datasets for head pose estimation, potentially improving model performance for underrepresented populations.
