Description

Ecoset is a large (155GB) image recognition dataset, combining images of objects with appropriate labels (one label per image). Ecoset is intended to provide higher ecological validity than similar image recognition datasets such as ImageNet (ILSVRC). Ecoset contains 1.5 million images from 565 basic level categories, chosen to be both (i) frequent in linguistic usage, and (ii) rated by human observers as concrete (e.g. ‘table’ is concrete, ‘romance’ is not). Additionally, ecoset was tested for label validity with a mislabelling error rate < 5%, as well as filtered to exclude NSFW content.

For more information on the dataset, consider reading the original publication.
