What is Flickr30k dataset?

The Flickr30k dataset is a popular benchmark for sentence-based picture portrayal. The dataset is comprised of 31,783 images that capture people engaged in everyday activities and events. Each image has a descriptive caption. Flickr30k is used for understanding the visual media (image) that correspond to a linguistic expression (description of the image). This dataset is commonly used as a standard benchmark for sentence-based image descriptions.

Download Flickr30k dataset in Python

Instead of downloading the Flickr30k dataset in Python, you can effortlessly load it in Python via our Deep Lake open-source with just one line of code.

How to use Flickr30k Dataset with PyTorch and TensorFlow in Python

Train a model on the Flickr30k 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 Flickr30k dataset with TensorFlow in Python

				
					dataloader = ds.tensorflow()
