Which of the outputs do you think look like the original face? Note: the second column is not output.

Note the cherry picking of the output for the bottom picture in the Yale press release (forth row in this image).

They share many features with the original face. No they are not great, but it's pretty remarkable and far better than random.

By many features do you mean two eyes, nose, mouth?
