基于巴西政要公开视频,构建多种族标签的面部识别基准
UFPR-PEs: A Brazilian Face Recognition Benchmark with Self-Declared Race/Color Labels

- 用巴西官方自报种族分类构建真实视频数据集
- 性能差异与图像质量强相关,种族差距需结合视觉难度分析
- 支持闭集/开集识别与验证,适合研究公平性问题
尽管面部识别系统广泛应用,但在非受控视觉条件下确保其人口统计可靠性仍具挑战。为此,我们提出UFPR-PEs,一个基于巴西当选政要公开视频、标注官方自报种族/肤色类别的面部识别偏见评估基准。数据集采用巴西人口普查分类体系,包含无对应英文或欧洲标准的“parda”类别。数据源自压缩公开视频,保留高难度样本,支持在真实场景下评估性能。我们描述了构建流程,报告数据统计,并在验证与(闭集和开集)识别设置下评估表现,包括按种族/肤色和难度等级的子组分析。结果表明,识别性能显著受图像质量影响,子组差距必须与视觉难度联合解读而非孤立看待。整体上,UFPR-PEs为在复杂公共视频条件下研究面部识别偏见提供了可复现且具有人口学基础的环境。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
While face recognition systems are widely deployed, ensuring their demographic reliability and robustness under uncontrolled visual conditions remains a critical challenge. To bridge this gap, we present UFPR-PEs, a benchmark for face recognition bias evaluation using public videos of elected Brazilian politicians annotated with official self-declared race/color categories. The dataset adopts the Brazilian census taxonomy, including the parda category, which has no direct equivalent in the U.S.- or Europe-centric schemas commonly used in prior benchmarks. Our benchmark is built from compressed public video and preserves difficult samples so that performance can be analyzed under realistic conditions. We describe the construction pipeline, report dataset statistics, and evaluate face recognition performance across verification and (closed- and open-set) identification settings, including subgroup analysis by race/color and difficulty level. The results show that recognition performance varies substantially with image quality, and that subgroup gaps must be interpreted jointly with visual difficulty rather than in isolation. Overall, UFPR-PEs provides a reproducible and demographically grounded setting for studying face recognition bias under challenging public video conditions.
