The ImageNet dataset contains 14,197,122 annotated images according to the WordNet hierarchy. Since 2010 the dataset is used in the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC), a benchmark in image classification and object detection. The publicly released dataset contains a set of manually annotated training images. A set of test images is also released, with the manual annotations withheld. ILSVRC annotations fall into one of two categories: (1) image-level annotation of a binary label for the presence or absence of an object class in the image, e.g., “there are cars in this image” but “there are no tigers,” and (2) object-level annotation of a tight bounding box and class label around an object instance in the image, e.g., “there is a screwdriver centered at position (20,25) with width of 50 pixels and height of 30 pixels”. The ImageNet project does not own the copyright of the images, therefore only thumbnails and URLs of images are provided.

The MNIST database (Modified National Institute of Standards and Technology database) is a large collection of handwritten digits. It has a training set of 60,000 examples, and a test set of 10,000 examples. It is a subset of a larger NIST Special Database 3 (digits written by employees of the United States Census Bureau) and Special Database 1 (digits written by high school students) which contain monochrome images of handwritten digits. The digits have been size-normalized and centered in a fixed-size image. The original black and white (bilevel) images from NIST were size normalized to fit in a 20x20 pixel box while preserving their aspect ratio. The resulting images contain grey levels as a result of the anti-aliasing technique used by the normalization algorithm. the images were centered in a 28x28 image by computing the center of mass of the pixels, and translating the image so as to position this point at the center of the 28x28 field.

DIV2K is a popular single-image super-resolution dataset which contains 1,000 images with different scenes and is splitted to 800 for training, 100 for validation and 100 for testing. It was collected for NTIRE2017 and NTIRE2018 Super-Resolution Challenges in order to encourage research on image super-resolution with more realistic degradation. This dataset contains low resolution images with different types of degradations. Apart from the standard bicubic downsampling, several types of degradations are considered in synthesizing low resolution images for different tracks of the challenges. Track 2 of NTIRE 2017 contains low resolution images with unknown x4 downscaling. Track 2 and track 4 of NTIRE 2018 correspond to realistic mild ×4 and realistic wild ×4 adverse conditions, respectively. Low-resolution images under realistic mild x4 setting suffer from motion blur, Poisson noise and pixel shifting. Degradations under realistic wild x4 setting are further extended to be of different

VoxCeleb2 is a large scale speaker recognition dataset obtained automatically from open-source media. VoxCeleb2 consists of over a million utterances from over 6k speakers. Since the dataset is collected ‘in the wild’, the speech segments are corrupted with real world noise including laughter, cross-talk, channel effects, music and other sounds. The dataset is also multilingual, with speech from speakers of 145 different nationalities, covering a wide range of accents, ages, ethnicities and languages. The dataset is audio-visual, so is also useful for a number of other applications, for example – visual speech synthesis, speech separation, cross-modal transfer from face to voice or vice versa and training face recognition from video to complement existing face recognition datasets.

The VGGFace2 dataset is made of around 3.31 million images divided into 9131 classes, each representing a different person identity. The dataset is divided into two splits, one for the training and one for test. The latter contains around 170000 images divided into 500 identities while all the other images belong to the remaining 8631 classes available for training. While constructing the datasets, the authors focused their efforts on reaching a very low label noise and a high pose and age diversity thus, making the VGGFace2 dataset a suitable choice to train state-of-the-art deep learning models on face-related tasks. The images of the training set have an average resolution of 137x180 pixels, with less than 1% at a resolution below 32 pixels (considering the shortest side).
