2D Face Keypoint Datasets

It is recommended to symlink the dataset root to $MMPOSE/data. If your folder structure is different, you may need to change the corresponding paths in config files.

MMPose supported datasets:

300W Dataset

300W (IMAVIS'2016)
@article{sagonas2016300,
  title={300 faces in-the-wild challenge: Database and results},
  author={Sagonas, Christos and Antonakos, Epameinondas and Tzimiropoulos, Georgios and Zafeiriou, Stefanos and Pantic, Maja},
  journal={Image and vision computing},
  volume={47},

We also supply a script which can convert the raw WFLW annotations to COCO style. The script’s output is not completely consistent with the annotations downloaded from the URL, but it does not affect training and testing.
