VGGFace2-HQ is a high-quality, cleaned-up version of the original VGGFace2 dataset. The original VGGFace2, released by the Visual Geometry Group at Oxford, contains over 3.3 million images of 9,131 identities, but it suffers from common web-scraping issues: mislabeled samples, extreme pose variations, heavy compression artifacts, and low-resolution faces. The original VGGFace2, released by the Visual Geometry

: +0.1–0.3% on clean benchmarks, more significant on blurred/noisy test sets.
