clean-fid for Evaluating Generative Models


Project | Paper | Colab-FID | Colab-Resize | Leaderboard Tables
Quick start: Calculate FID | Calculate KID | Leaderboard API

The FID calculation involves many steps that can produce inconsistencies in the final metric. As shown below, different implementations use different low-level image quantization and resizing functions, the latter of which are often implemented incorrectly.

We provide an easy-to-use library to address the above issues and make the FID scores comparable across different methods, papers, and groups.

CleanFID Leaderboard API

We compute the FID scores using the corresponding methods used in the original papers and using the Clean-FID proposed here. All values are computed using 10 evaluation runs.
We provide an API to query the results shown in the tables below directly from the pip package. The arguments model_name, dataset_name, dataset_res, dataset_split, task_name can be used to filter the results.

Buggy Resizing Operations

The definitions of resizing functions are mathematical and should never be a function of the library being used. Unfortunately, implementations differ across commonly-used libraries. They are often implemented incorrectly by popular libraries. Try out the different resizing implementations in the Google colab notebook here.


The inconsistencies among implementations can have a drastic effect of the evaluations metrics. The table below shows that FFHQ dataset images resized with bicubic implementation from other libraries (OpenCV, PyTorch, TensorFlow, OpenCV) have a large FID score (≥ 6) when compared to the same images resized with the correctly implemented PIL-bicubic filter. Other correctly implemented filters from PIL (Lanczos, bilinear, box) all result in relatively smaller FID score (≤ 0.75). Note that since TF 2.0, the new flag antialias (default: False) can produce results close to PIL. However, it was not used in the existing TF-FID repo and set as False by default.

JPEG Image Compression

Image compression can have a surprisingly large effect on FID. Images are perceptually indistinguishable from each other but have a large FID score. The FID scores under the images are calculated between all FFHQ images saved using the corresponding JPEG format and the PNG format.

Below, we study the effect of JPEG compression for StyleGAN2 models trained on the FFHQ dataset (left) and LSUN outdoor Church dataset (right). Note that LSUN dataset images were collected with JPEG compression (quality 75), whereas FFHQ images were collected as PNG. Interestingly, for LSUN dataset, the best FID score (3.48) is obtained when the generated images are compressed with JPEG quality 87.


Quick Start

  • install requirements
    pip install -r requirements.txt
    
  • install the library
    pip install clean-fid
    

Computing FID

  • Compute FID between two image folders
    from cleanfid import fid
    score = fid.compute_fid(fdir1, fdir2)
    
  • Compute FID between one folder of images and pre-computed datasets statistics (e.g., FFHQ)
    from cleanfid import fid
    score = fid.compute_fid(fdir1, dataset_name="FFHQ", dataset_res=1024, dataset_split="trainval70k")
    
  • Compute FID using a generative model and pre-computed dataset statistics:
    from cleanfid import fid
    # function that accepts a latent and returns an image in range[0,255]
    gen = lambda z: GAN(latent=z, ... , <other_flags>)
    score = fid.compute_fid(gen=gen, dataset_name="FFHQ",
            dataset_res=256, num_gen=50_000, dataset_split="trainval70k")
    

Computing KID

The KID score can be computed using a similar interface as FID. The dataset statistics for KID are only precomputed for smaller datasets AFHQ, BreCaHAD, and MetFaces.

  • Compute KID between two image folders
    from cleanfid import fid
    score = fid.compute_kid(fdir1, fdir2)
    
  • Compute KID between one folder of images and pre-computed datasets statistics
    from cleanfid import fid
    score = fid.compute_kid(fdir1, dataset_name="brecahad", dataset_res=512, dataset_split="train")
    
  • Compute KID using a generative model and pre-computed dataset statistics:
    from cleanfid import fid
    # function that accepts a latent and returns an image in range[0,255]
    gen = lambda z: GAN(latent=z, ... , <other_flags>)
    score = fid.compute_kid(gen=gen, dataset_name="brecahad", dataset_res=512, num_gen=50_000, dataset_split="train")
    

Supported Precomputed Datasets

We provide precompute statistics for the following commonly used configurations. Please contact us if you want to add statistics for your new datasets.

Using precomputed statistics In order to compute the FID score with the precomputed dataset statistics, use the corresponding options. For instance, to compute the clean-fid score on generated 256x256 FFHQ images use the command:

fid_score = fid.compute_fid(fdir1, dataset_name="ffhq", dataset_res=256,  mode="clean", dataset_split="trainval70k")

Create Custom Dataset Statistics

  • dataset_path: folder where the dataset images are stored

  • custom_name: name to be used for the statistics

  • Generating custom statistics (saved to local cache)

    from cleanfid import fid
    fid.make_custom_stats(custom_name, dataset_path, mode="clean")
    
  • Using the generated custom statistics

    from cleanfid import fid
    score = fid.compute_fid("folder_fake", dataset_name=custom_name,
              mode="clean", dataset_split="custom")
    
  • Removing the custom stats

    from cleanfid import fid
    fid.remove_custom_stats(custom_name, mode="clean")
    
  • Check if a custom statistic already exists

    from cleanfid import fid
    fid.test_stats_exists(custom_name, mode)
    

Backwards Compatibility

We provide two flags to reproduce the legacy FID score.

  • mode="legacy_pytorch"
    This flag is equivalent to using the popular PyTorch FID implementation provided here
    The difference between using clean-fid with this option and code is ~2e-06
    See doc for how the methods are compared

  • mode="legacy_tensorflow"
    This flag is equivalent to using the official implementation of FID released by the authors.
    The difference between using clean-fid with this option and code is ~2e-05
    See doc for detailed steps for how the methods are compared
