This repository appears to publicly redistribute the AffectNet research dataset, or a substantial portion of it, without authorization from the University of Denver.

AffectNet was created at and is owned by the University of Denver and is distributed subject to the AffectNet Academic Use License. The license does not authorize public redistribution. In particular, Section 4 prohibits providing the dataset, either partially or as a whole, to third parties, and Section 6 restricts copies to computers at the authorized Lead Researcher's institution.

The files hosted in this repository appear to contain AffectNet data and make that material publicly downloadable by third parties.

We request that Hugging Face review this repository for unauthorized redistribution of AffectNet and disable access to AffectNet material where the uploader cannot demonstrate authorization from the University of Denver.

The University of Denver/AffectNet team can provide the complete Academic Use License and additional provenance or file-level evidence upon request.
