+The ORL face database
+---------------------
+
+This directory contains a set of faces taken between April 1992 and
+April 1994 at the Olivetti Research Laboratory in Cambridge, UK.
+
+There are 10 different images of 40 distinct subjects. For some of the
+subjects, the images were taken at different times, varying lighting
+slightly, facial expressions (open/closed eyes, smiling/non-smiling)
+and facial details (glasses/no-glasses).  All the images are taken
+against a dark homogeneous background and the subjects are in
+up-right, frontal position (with tolerance for some side movement).
+
+The files are in PGM format and can be conveniently viewed using the 'xv'
+program. The size of each image is 92x112, 8-bit grey levels. The images
+are organised in 40 directories (one for each subject) named as:
+
+		sX
+
+where X indicates the subject number (between 1 and 40). In each directory
+there are 10 different images of the selected subject named as:
+
+		Y.pgm
+
+where Y indicates which image for the specific subject (between 1 and 10).
+
+When using these images, please give credit to Olivetti Research Laboratory.
+A convenient reference is the face recognition work which uses some of
+these images:
