## Abstract (arXiv)

The Faster R-CNN has recently demonstrated impressive results on various object detection benchmarks. By training a Faster R-CNN model on the large scale WIDER face dataset, we report state-of-the-art results on two widely used face detection benchmarks, FDDB and the recently released IJB-A.
