I believe this might be a good complement to the 1-million fake faces dataset uploaded by Bojan.\n\nHere they are:\n* [Part 1](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-1)\n* [Part 2](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-2)\n* [Part 3](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-3)\n* [Part 4](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-4)\n* [Part 5](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-5)\n* [Part 6](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-6)\n* [Part 7](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-7)\n* [Part 8](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-8)\n* [Part 9](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-part-9)\n\nYou can find a [version of all 70k images](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/flickrfaceshq-dataset-nvidia-resized-256px) resized to 256x256, and compressed in JPEG, which was done using [this notebook](https://www.kaggle.com/xhlulu/resize-flickr-70k-to-256x256/output).\n\n## Context\n\nHere is the description on the official Github:\n\n&gt; Flickr-Faces-HQ (FFHQ) is a high-quality image dataset of human faces, originally created as a benchmark for generative adversarial networks (GAN):\n\n&gt; A Style-Based Generator Architecture for Generative Adversarial Networks\n&gt; Tero Karras (NVIDIA), Samuli Laine (NVIDIA), Timo Aila (NVIDIA)\n&gt; https://arxiv.org/abs/1812.04948\n\n&gt; The dataset consists of 70,000 high-quality PNG images at 1024×1024 resolution and contains considerable variation in terms of age, ethnicity and image background. It also has good coverage of accessories such as eyeglasses, sunglasses, hats, etc. The images were crawled from Flickr, thus inheriting all the biases of that website, and automatically aligned and cropped using dlib. Only images under permissive licenses were collected. Various automatic filters were used to prune the set, and finally Amazon Mechanical Turk was used to remove the occasional statues, paintings, or photos of photos.",
