Image Net
Image Net
Introduction :
The digital era's data explosion inspires ImageNet, a large-scale
image ontology with 3.2 million images, leveraging WordNet's
hierarchy and Amazon Mechanical Turk for construction, offering a
vital resource for advanced image applications.
2. Properties of ImageNet :
Structured hierarchically from WordNet, aims for 50 millions
labeled high-resolution images, with the current focus on 12 subtrees,
notably mammal and vehicle categories.
- Scale : ImageNet's scale is evident with 3.2 million annotated
images across 5247 categories, making it the largest clean image dataset
in vision research.
- Hierarchy : ImageNet employs a densely populated semantic
hierarchy akin to WordNet, utilizing interlinked synsets through
relations like "IS-A," resulting in an unmatched density, exemplified by
147 dog categories not found in other vision datasets.
- Accuracy : ImageNet aims for high precision throughout the
WordNet hierarchy, exemplified by an average of 99.7%,
acknowledging challenges in distinguishing finer categories
within the hierarchy.
- Diversity : ImageNet prioritizes diversity, quantifying it through
the average image's JPG file size, with the expectation that more diverse
synsets yield blurrier average images, demonstrated in comparisons
with Caltech101.
- TinyImage : 32x32, with 80 million low-resolution images,
contrasts with ImageNet's high-quality synsets (approx. 99% precision)
and full-resolution images 400x350, making ImageNet more suitable for
robust algorithm development and evaluation.
