| # ODOR — Object Detection for Olfactory References in Artworks |
|
|
| 4,712 artwork images with **38,165 bounding-box annotations** across **139 fine-grained |
| categories** of smell-related objects — flowers, fruit, censers, animals, vessels — drawn from |
| European art. |
|
|
| Computer vision on artworks is hard in ways photographic benchmarks are not: artistic |
| abstraction, peripheral objects, and fine-grained distinctions between visually similar |
| classes. ODOR is built to test exactly that. |
|
|
| ## What's in a row |
|
|
| Each row carries the image, its detections, **and its art-historical metadata** — the Zenodo |
| deposit ships these as separate files, and they are joined here: |
|
|
| - `image`, `image_id`, `file_name`, `width`, `height` |
| - `objects` — `bbox` (COCO `xywh`), `category` (`ClassLabel`, 139 names), `area`, `iscrowd` |
| - `artist`, `title`, `iconography`, **`iconclass_code`**, `genre`, `material` |
| - `earliest_date`, `latest_date`, `photo_archive`, `image_credits`, `details_url`, |
| `description`, `keywords`, `language` |
| |
| Where present, `iconclass_code` connects this dataset to |
| [`biglam/brill_iconclass`](https://huggingface.co/datasets/biglam/brill_iconclass) — but note it is |
| sparse (see caveats). |
| |
| ## Splits |
| |
| | Split | Images | |
| |---|---| |
| | train | 4,264 | |
| | test | 448 | |
| |
| ## Caveats |
| |
| - **Metadata coverage is uneven.** `artist` is present on 96.6% of rows, but **`iconclass_code` on only 541 of 4,264 (12.7%)**. Do not assume Iconclass coverage. |
| - Metadata is **multilingual** (`language` is `de` for much of the Städel material) and not normalised across source archives. |
| - `earliest_date` / `latest_date` are inconsistent in the source — some are years, some centuries (e.g. `"18"`). Left as strings rather than guessed at. |
| - Images come from several photo archives with differing terms; `image_credits` and `details_url` point back to the originals. |
