# Landform Retrieval |
|
|
|
|
|
[**Paper**](https://huggingface.co/papers/2602.13961) | [**Code**](https://github.com/ml-stat-Sustech/MarsRetrieval) |
|
|
|
|
|
## Dataset Summary |
|
|
|
|
|
This dataset is Task 2 of [**MarsRetrieval**](https://github.com/ml-stat-Sustech/MarsRetrieval), a retrieval-centric benchmark for evaluating vision-language models (VLMs) on Mars geospatial discovery. Task 2 evaluates **concept-to-instance generalization** for Martian geomorphology. Given a textual geomorphic concept, the model must retrieve its corresponding visual instances from a curated Martian image gallery. The dataset comprises **1,185** carefully curated image patches collected from CTX and HiRISE imagery. The landforms follow a two-level geomorphology taxonomy: |
|
|
|
|
|
- **7 major genetic classes** (e.g., Aeolian, Volcanic and Fluvial processes) |
|
|
- **48 geomorphic subclasses** (e.g., Aeolian Dunes, Dust Devil Tracks, Yardangs) |
|
|
|
|
|
## Task Formulation |
|
|
|
|
|
We formulate this task as a **text-to-image multi-positive retrieval problem**: |
|
|
|
|
|
- A text query describes a geomorphic subclass. |
|
|
- Multiple image instances in the gallery are considered valid positives. |
|
|
- The goal is to rank all gallery images by cosine similarity in the embedding space. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Metrics |
|
|
|
|
|
We report metrics suitable for long-tailed multi-positive retrieval: |
|
|
|
|
|
- Macro mean Average Precision (mAP) |
|
|
- nDCG@10 |
|
|
- Hits@10 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## How to Use |
|
|
```python |
|
|
from datasets import load_dataset |
|
|
|
|
|
# Load the dataset |
|
|
dataset = load_dataset("SUSTech/Mars-Landforms") |
|
|
|
|
|
# Access a sample image and its geomorphic label |
|
|
print(dataset["train"][0]["image"]) |
|
|
print(dataset["train"][0]["label"]) |
|
|
``` |
|
|
