We propose thefirst crowdsourcing application to collect and label data about apparentage of people instead of the real age. In terms of cultural event recognition, tens of categories have to be recognized. This involves scene understanding and human analysis. This paper summarizes both challenges and data, providing some initial baselines. The results of the first round of the competition were presented at ChaLearn LAP 2015 IJCNN special session on computer vision and robotics http://www.dtic.ua.es/∼jgarcia/IJCNN2015.Details of the ChaLearn LAP competitions can be found at http://gesture.chalearn.org/.
