-Counting the number of downloads for datasets is not a trivial task, as a single dataset repository might contain multiple files, from multiple subsets and splits (e.g. train/validation/test) and sometimes with many files in a single split. To avoid double counting downloads (e.g., counting a single download of a dataset as multiple downloads), the Hub counts as one download every series of files requests in an interval of 5 minutes per user. No information is sent from the user, and no additional calls are made for this. The count is done server-side as the Hub serves files for downloads. Every HTTP request to the files, including `GET` and `HEAD`, will be counted as a download.
