Glint360k downloading issues

homomorfism opened this issue · comments

Hello, @tamerthamoqa!
I have tried to download glint360k (unpacked) from google drive, but each time downloading fails in the middle due to network issues. Idk now why, but I have not found any other copy of glint360k dataset except yours one.

Can I kindly ask you to split whole .zip file into pieces of 5 GB (by command split --verbose -b5G glint360_unpacked.zip glint360_unpacked.zip.) and download these pieces into google drive so that I could download it without network errors?

This is really important for me - I am doing thesis on face recognition and this dataset shows great metric on validation datasets.

A hacky way to download the file (my download crashed many times at the end too) was by using the official Google Drive app in Windows. I added the file to my drive and then used the mounted G drive in my file explorer to copy the dataset. I hope this works for you.
