Add Multiface dataset

Adding a Dataset

• Name: Multiface dataset
• Description: f high quality recordings of the faces of 13 identities, each captured in a multi-view capture stage performing various facial expressions. An average of 12,200 (v1 scripts) to 23,000 (v2 scripts) frames per subject with capture rate at 30 fps
• Data: https://github.com/facebookresearch/multiface

The whole dataset is 65TB though, so I'm not sure

Instructions to add a new dataset can be found here.

Hi @osanseviero I would like to add this dataset.

Hey @nandwalritik! Thanks for offering to help!

This dataset might be somewhat complex and I'm concerned about it being 65 TB, which would be quite expensive to host. @lhoestq @mariosasko I would love your input if you think it's worth adding this dataset.

Thanks for proposing this interesting dataset, @osanseviero.

Please note that the data files are already hosted in a third-party server: e.g. the index of data files for entity "6795937" is at https://fb-baas-f32eacb9-8abb-11eb-b2b8-4857dd089e15.s3.amazonaws.com/MugsyDataRelease/v0.0/identities/6795937/index.html

Therefore, in principle, we don't need to host them on our Hub: it would be enough to just implement a loading script in the corresponding Hub dataset repo, e.g. "facebook/multiface"...
