Strech and Squish or Center crop and resize for FID????

[yaramohamadi]

I've also encounted this issue, my solution is to transform before dataloader:

    dataset = ImagePathDataset(files,

        transforms=TF.Compose([

            TF.Resize((299,299)),

            TF.ToTensor(),

    ]))

My reference dataset has images of varying aspect ratios, while my generated images are already 299 by 299. My concern is that doing a simple resizing like this is going to significantly change the statistics of the image by stretching it. Isnt a more correct way to first center crop the image by its minimum dimension and after that resize to 299 by 299????

This is really confusing, I would really appreciate any insights!
