+# Anime Face Colorization Dataset
+
+[![GitHub Repository](https://img.shields.io/badge/GitHub-Repository-black?logo=github)](https://github.com/AxelDlv00/DiffusionSketchColorization/tree/main)
+
+## Overview
+This dataset is designed for **anime face colorization** tasks using **diffusion models** and **photo-sketch correspondence techniques**. It provides a structured collection of reference images and corresponding sketches, allowing researchers and developers to explore various **AI-assisted colorization techniques**.
+
+**Read the paper:** [Sketch Colorization Using Diffusion Models](https://github.com/AxelDlv00/DiffusionSketchColorization/blob/main/sketch_colorization.pdf)
+
+---
+
+## Dataset Structure
+The dataset is organized into two main folders:
+
+- **`reference/`**: Contains colored reference images for different anime characters.
+- **`sketch/`**: Contains corresponding line-art sketches derived from reference images.
+
+Each subdirectory within these folders corresponds to a specific character, ensuring structured and character-specific training data.
+
+---
+
+## Datasets Used
+This dataset combines and enhances multiple existing datasets, including:
+- **Danbooru Tagged Dataset ("moeimouto" subset only)** [[Dataset](https://www.kaggle.com/datasets/mylesoneill/tagged-anime-illustrations)]
+- **[AnimeDiffusion Dataset](https://xq-meng.github.io/projects/AnimeDiffusion/)** augmented with **deformation flows**
+
+This structured dataset enables **effective training for anime sketch colorization models**.
