# Description Benchmark based on GalaxyZoo |
|
|
[](https://arxiv.org/abs/2512.11982) |
|
|
|
|
|
A small sample of the GZ-DECaLS dataset to cheaply test the ability of vision-language models to describe galaxy images. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Data source |
|
|
The underlying catalog data are derived from the Galaxy Zoo DECaLS: Detailed Visual Morphology Measurements from Volunteers and Deep Learning for 314,000 Galaxies and remain subject to their original data-use policy and required acknowledgements. |
