We are pleased to announce the second facial landmark localisation
challenge, in conjunction with CVPR 2017 (Faces "in-the-wild" workshop).

Comprehensive benchmarks exist for facial landmark localisation and
tracking (e.g. our previous 300W
<https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/300-W/> and 300VW
<https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/300-VW/> challenges). Nevertheless,
these benchmarks are mainly about (near) frontal faces. In CVPR 2017, we
make a significant step further and present a new comprehensive multi-pose
benchmark, as well as organise a workshop-challenge for landmark detection
in images displaying arbitrary poses. This new dataset contains thousands
of images and will most likely be considered as the de facto benchmark for
facial landmark localisation.

All researchers with interest in the subject are encouraged to participate.

You can find more details about the challenge at

We are looking forward for your submission!

Best,
The Organisers
