## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances

Each instance has the following structure:
```
{
    'image': <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=RGB size=448x448 at 0x7FCABA221FA0>,
    'age': 6,
    'gender': 0,
    'race': 0,
    'service_test': True
}
```

### Data Fields

- `image`: The image
- `age`: Age class among `["0-2", "3-9", "10-19", "20-29", "30-39", "40-49", "50-59", "60-69", "more than 70"]`
- `gender`: Gender class among `["Male", "Female"]`
- `race`: Race class among `["East Asian", "Indian", "Black", "White", "Middle Eastern", "Latino_Hispanic", "Southeast Asian"]`
- `service_test`: Not sure what this is. See [issue](https://github.com/joojs/fairface/issues/9).
