Dataset Summary
This dataset is an extremely challenging collection of original Indian traffic sign images, crowdsourced from over 400 urban and rural areas. Every image is manually reviewed and verified by computer vision professionals at DataCluster Labs.
Optimized for Generative AI, Visual Question Answering, Image Classification, and LMM development, this dataset provides a strong basis for robust model performance in traffic sign detection and related tasks.

How to Use
Download
huggingface-cli download Dataclusterlabspvtltd/Indian_Traffic_Sign_Image_Dataset --repo-type dataset --local-dir ./Indian_Traffic_Sign_Image_Dataset
Or clone directly:
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/Dataclusterlabspvtltd/Indian_Traffic_Sign_Image_Dataset
Convert VOC to YOLO or COCO
from pylabel import importer
# VOC → YOLO
dataset = importer.ImportVOC(path="annotations/voc")
dataset.export.ExportToYoloV5(output_path="annotations/yolo")
# VOC → COCO
dataset.export.ExportToCoco(output_path="annotations/coco/annotations.json")
