Recent years have witnessed increasing attention in cartoon media, powered by the strong demands of industrial applications. As the first step to understand this media, cartoon face recognition is a crucial but less-explored task with few datasets proposed. In this work, we first present a new challenging benchmark dataset, consisting of 389,678 images of 5,013 cartoon characters annotated with identity, bounding box, pose, and other auxiliary attributes. The dataset, named iCartoonFace, is currently the largest-scale, high-quality, rich-annotated, and spanning multiple occurrences in the field of image recognition, including near-duplications, occlusions, and appearance changes. In addition, we provide two types of annotations for cartoon media, i.e., face recognition, and face detection, with the help of a semi-automatic labeling algorithm. To further investigate this challenging dataset, we propose a multi-task domain adaptation approach that jointly utilizes the human and cartoon domain knowledge with three discriminative regularizations. We hence perform a benchmark analysis of the proposed dataset and verify the superiority of the proposed approach in the cartoon face recognition task. The dataset is available at https://iqiyi.cn/icartoonface.
