Where these numbers come from

39 publicly documented portraits of notable Iban people were assessed by a vision model against the catalog vocabulary, one row per portrait. Values are what the photographs show, read by a model, not population measurements. Each table counts only portraits where the value could be assessed; covered, obscured and unclear portraits are reported separately.

Notable-people corpora skew older, so hair color over-represents gray and white, and image quality varies. Treat shares as a description of this sample.

The same rows are published as image_observations in the catalog dataset; see the methodology. A family page exists only when at least 10 portraits carry an assessable value.
