Evaluation of Face Restoration performance on the test split of the Real-world 1.0 dataset, utilizing MUSIQ, FID, IDS, and AGE metrics.

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Face Restoration |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Real-world 1.0 (test) |
| Metric | MUSIQ Score |
| Unit | SCALAR |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 8 of 8 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [MUSIQ Score](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/face-restoration-on-real-world-1-0-test.md?metric=MUSIQ%20Score>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [FID](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/face-restoration-on-real-world-1-0-test.md?metric=FID>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [IDS](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/face-restoration-on-real-world-1-0-test.md?metric=IDS>): Higher is better; unit: SCALAR.

- [AGE Error](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/face-restoration-on-real-world-1-0-test.md?metric=AGE%20Error>): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR.
