  Recognizing Families In the Wild (RFIW): an annual large-scale, multi-track
automatic kinship recognition evaluation that supports various visual kin-based
problems on scales much higher than ever before. Organized in conjunction with
the 15th IEEE International Conference on Automatic Face and Gesture
Recognition (FG) as a Challenge, RFIW provides a platform for publishing
original work and the gathering of experts for a discussion of the next steps.
This paper summarizes the supported tasks (i.e., kinship verification,
tri-subject verification, and search & retrieval of missing children) in the
evaluation protocols, which include the practical motivation, technical
background, data splits, metrics, and benchmark results. Furthermore, top
submissions (i.e., leader-board stats) are listed and reviewed as a high-level
analysis on the state of the problem. In the end, the purpose of this paper is
to describe the 2020 RFIW challenge, end-to-end, along with forecasts in
promising future directions.
