Radboud Faces Database may also be good - I have downloaded these but don't have first-hand experience with the set just yet. See http://www.socsci.ru.nl:8180/RaFD2/RaFD?p=main

yes, exactly, they are what you are looking for. They are quite good.

Thank you for your swift responses everyone. Elian and Annette I now have the KDEF and yes faces are presented at varying angles which is great. Unfortunately the angles are only 0, 45 & 90, but it's a start.

I have used the Radboud database before Carien and I would highly recommend this one for expression perception.

I would also suggest to use the Radboud Database. I've made good experiences with that, and my colleagues also did.

There is a lot of work done with infants and non-verbal children/adults in relationship to pain. You could contact Professor Kenneth Craig at UBC Department of Psychology if this is one of the areas of interest. I do not not if they have looked at angle of facial expression.

There is a Professor at San Francisco State University named David Matsumoto. He does a tremendous amount of research in this particular area. He also has some things that may interest you on his company website: www.Humintell.com

I am not sure that he will give you access to data, but you can certainly check his website to see if he welcomes research partnerships.

Best wishes!

I will do that Richard. Thank you also Marc and Matthias for your helpful comments!

Hi Alisdair,

maybe you have seen this publication:

Benton et al., Proc Roy Soc B, 2007

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2706192/

They use aftereffects to demonstrate that facial expression processing seems quite robust across viewpoint changes.

In a humble, older version of testing viewpoint effects, I found very little in terms of this in a forced-choice recognition paradigm that not only tested compound expressions but also single action units.

Other databases to consider are CMU PIE and MULTIPIE

http://www.multipie.org/

These have larger variations in the viewing angles...

We also have a collection from three viewpoints, here: http://pics.stir.ac.uk/ESRC/2d_images.htm

I am familiar with that paper Christian, but have not heard of the MULTIPIE database so I will search for that, thank you very much!

I acquired your database from you recently Peter, I hope to use it soon for another project.

OTCVBS IRISThermal/Visible Face Database contains different expressions with varying poses.

Thank you Priya, have not heard of that one, i'll investigate.

Regards

Hi!

As part of my master's degree, I've developped a database of dynamic virtual emotions. The animations vary by emotion, intensity and angle (frontal view, 45 degrees, profile). Let me know if you are still interested :)

Hi Marie, yes I would be very interested in your database. 

My e-mail is [email protected]

Dear Alisdair,

Refer the following url and as well as the article.

Hi! Check out the Face Image Meta-Database (fIMDb): https://cliffordworkman.com/resources/

The fIMDb includes info or estimates on: number of photo sets per source (and numbers of neutral and other sets — e.g., facial emotions), number of subjects per source (with approximate sex distributions), total number of images, approximate number of viewpoints, whether the sources includes photos from more than one ethnicity, whether it includes more than one age group, whether meta-data are available, the photo category (e.g., posed, wild), the reference(s) for the source (e.g. DOIs). I hope this will aid others interested in conducting research on responses to faces.

Look up Dr. David Matsumoto and his co

pany called Humintell. I believe that he has a vast database used for commercial and consultation reasons.

Thank you Clifford, I'll have to look into that.

No problem! I suggest running an fIMDb search without changing any parameters. When the results appear, click "nVWPTS" to sort by number of angles / viewpoints (click twice to sort from high to low), and then look through the "NOTES" column for any of the expression labels of interest to you (e.g. Afr for Afraid, Ang for Angry, Ann for Annoyed, Con for Contempt, Dis for Disgusted, Emb for Embarrassed, Gru for Grumpy, Hap for Happy, Pai for Pain, Pro for Proud, Smi for Smiling, Sad for Sad, Scr for Screaming, Sur for Surprised).

You can export these results to CSV by clicking the button at the top. You can also click on the names of individual databases to see their information on a separate page, which includes example images. Having just done this myself, there appear to be quite a few options for you to choose from. Let me know if you have any trouble!
