What is ECSSD Dataset?

The ECSSD (Extended Complex Scene Saliency) Dataset is created to enhance research in the segmentation of complex scene saliency images. It was generated to substitute the MSRA-1000 dataset which normally has images having smooth and simple background structures. The dataset brings natural images which are diverse in nature. All the images were acquired from the internet and with help of 5 helpers in producing ground truth masks. This dataset contains 1000 natural images with well-annotated masks.

Download ECSSD Dataset in Python

Instead of downloading the ECSSD dataset in Python, you can effortlessly load it in Python via our Deep Lake open-source with just one line of code.

Load ECSSD Dataset in Python

				
					import deeplake
ds = deeplake.load("hub://activeloop/ecssd")

ECSSD Dataset Structure

ECSSD Data Fields

images: tensor containing images.
masks: tensor containing masks of respective images.

How to use ECSSD Dataset with PyTorch and TensorFlow in Python

Train a model on the ECSSD dataset with PyTorch in Python

Let’s use Deep Lake built-in PyTorch one-line dataloader to connect the data to the compute:

				
					dataloader = ds.pytorch(num_workers=0, batch_size=4, shuffle=False)

Train a model on the ECSSD dataset with TensorFlow in Python

				
					dataloader = ds.tensorflow()
