Dataset Information

For what purpose was the dataset created?

RealWaste was created as apart of an honors thesis researching how convolution neural networks could perform on authentic waste material when trained on objects in pure and unadulterated forms, when compared to training via real waste items.

What do the instances in this dataset represent?

Color images of waste items captured at the point of reception in a landfill environment. Images are released in 524x524 resolution in line with accompanying research paper. For full size resolution images, please contact the corresponding author.

Additional Information

The labels applied to the images represent the material type present, however further refinement of labelling may be performed given the moderate dataset size (i.e., splitting the plastic class in transparent and opaque components). Under the proposed labels, image counts are as follows: - Cardboard: 461 - Food Organics: 411 - Glass: 420 - Metal: 790 - Miscellaneous Trash: 495 - Paper: 500 - Plastic: 921 - Textile Trash: 318 - Vegetation: 436
