# ShellFishNet Review

ShellFishNet Review is an anonymous 30-image preview sampled from 30 distinct classes in the formal ShellFishNet dataset. The full dataset contains 40,130 reviewed images across 100 marine and coastal shellfish classes, with acquisition/observation groups kept separate across the 32,143 training, 4,029 validation, and 3,958 test images.

This preview was selected with a fixed random seed for peer review and is not a new benchmark split. All images are copied directly from the formal dataset without modification; `data/metadata.csv` retains the source attribution, item-level license, license URL, source URL, and integrity hash for each image.

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

review = load_dataset("imagefolder", data_dir="data")
```

Images remain subject to their recorded CC0, CC BY, or CC BY-SA source licenses. This preview is intended for research review and does not replace the complete ShellFishNet release.
