Contains images representing three variants of FHIBE Downsampled, each showing a different type of pixel-level annotation: Bounding boxes: downsampled images with face and person bounding boxes overlaid. Masks: downsampled images with all segmentation masks overlaid, with each mask category shown in a different color. Keypoints: downsampled images with keypoints and pose skeletons overlaid. These images are useful for visually inspecting pixel-level annotations and for illustrative purposes. The dataset package contains a filepaths.csv file which summarizes all the image paths contained in the nested sub-directories. All paths are relative to the location of filepaths.csv. This file can be used for automatically reading/loading images. The filepaths.csv file contains the following columns: uid: A unique identifier of the image. Can be used to map data across all FHIBE variants. img_bbox: The relative path to the image file with the face and person bounding boxes overlaid. img_masks: The relative path to the image file with the segmentation masks overlaid. img_keypoints: The relative path to the image file with the keypoints and pose skeletons overlaid.

Restrictions/Special Constraints
As set out in Section 2.1 of the Terms of Use, FHIBE is primarily an evaluation dataset and may only be used as a training dataset for the development of bias diagnostic and mitigation tools or methods.
Forbidden Usage
As a user of FHIBE, you may not, and may not permit or assist others, to:
Attempt to re-identify any individuals in FHIBE.
Attempt to infer, predict, or label any sensitive or objectionable attributes to the Licensed Images, such as race or ethnicity, gender or sexual orientation, political opinions, religion or religious beliefs, genetic data, propensity towards crime, personality, attractiveness, etc., except in connection with detecting bias in model analysis.
Use biometric data in any Licensed Images to perform any Processing activities (as defined in the Data Sharing Addendum in Exhibit B of the Terms of Use) unrelated to bias evaluation and mitigation, including without limitation facial recognition.
Use FHIBE in any way that causes reputational harm to the individuals in the Licensed Images or other parties.
Use FHIBE in any manner that violates any applicable law, such as privacy or security laws or regulations as well as including accessing FHIBE from a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo.
Use FHIBE for any law enforcement, military, arms or surveillance purpose or any other purpose other than the Purpose.
Use FHIBE for evaluating AI systems that (are banned in, or violate restrictions of, the United States, the European Union and in your applicable jurisdiction.
For more restrictions please refer to the Terms of Use and Acceptable Use Policy.
Ethical Review
Data collection commenced after April 23, 2023, following Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval from WCG Clinical, Inc. (study number 1352290). All participants provided informed consent, and image subjects additionally consented to their identifiable images being included in the dataset.
Intended Use
FHIBE is intended to be used as a bias/fairness evaluation dataset for machine learning models. The diverse set of images and rich annotations enable evaluations over a wide range of computer vision tasks, including person detection and segmentation, face detection and verification, keypoint (pose) estimation, and visual question answering. Applications for which FHIBE has been used include surfacing gender biases in vision language model question answering and identifying hair style variability as a leading contributor to gender bias in popular face verification models.
