Humans in the Loop is happy to publish open access annotations for Gapminder’s Dollar Street dataset.
The Dollar Street project aims to show people around the world and how they really live. With more than 27,000 images taken across 50 countries, the dataset covers a variety of daily objects and scenes.
Humans in the Loop has performed bounding box and image-level tag annotations on the dataset, in an effort to promote a stronger geographical diversity in object recognition datasets, many of which are Western-centric.
The images were kindly annotated by the trainees of the Roia Foundation in Syria.
