drhead/laion_hd_21M_deduped

A subset of LAION Aesthetics v2 5+, filtered to include only high resolution (1024x1024+) images, then processed to remove dead links (as of October 2023), and with embeddings recalculated using CLIP-ViT-L-patch14 which were used to both remove poor-quality image-caption matches (CLIP similarity <0.2) and to deduplicate the dataset. Roughly one third of the dataset was dropped by these operations after filtering high resolution images.
