# 🥇🌿 Plant100-CLS: A Large-Scale Plant Species Image Classification Dataset

## 📌 Dataset Summary

**Plant100-CLS** is a large-scale real time 🌱 **plant species image classification dataset** containing **54,949 images** across **100 plant classes**, with **500+ images per class**.
All the images are captured using a mobile phone in the Bapatla Engineering College, Bapatla Campus. The dataset is designed to support **deep learning, computer vision, and plant recognition research**, particularly for tropical and subtropical plant species.

## 🧠 Uses

### ✅ Direct Use

Plant100-CLS is suitable for:

- 🌱 Plant species classification  
- 🤖 Training CNNs, Vision Transformers (ViTs), and hybrid models  
- 🧪 Transfer learning & fine-tuning  
- 📊 Benchmarking image classification algorithms  
- 🖼️ Data augmentation & robustness experiments  

### 🚫 Out-of-Scope Use

This dataset is **not intended** for:

- ❌ Medical or agricultural diagnosis  
- ❌ Toxicity or edibility prediction  
- ❌ Legal, ecological, or conservation decisions  
- ❌ Individual plant health assessment  

⚠️ **Model predictions should not replace expert botanical advice.**

---

## 🗂️ Dataset Structure

The dataset follows a **standard folder-based classification format**:

- 📁 One folder = one plant species  
- 🔤 Class names use **underscores (`_`)** for ML compatibility  
- 🏷️ Each image belongs to **exactly one class**  
- 🔀 No predefined train/val/test split (user-defined)

---

## 🛠️ Dataset Creation

### 🎯 Curation Rationale

Plant100-CLS was created to address the lack of **large-scale, well-balanced plant image datasets**, especially for **Indian and tropical flora**, enabling more reliable plant classification models.

### 🌍 Source Data

#### 📸 Data Collection and Processing

- Images collected from:
  - 🌐 Bapatla Engineering College Campus
  - 📷 Images are captured using Mobile Phones
  - 👥 Community contributions  
- 🔍 Duplicate and corrupted images removed  
- ✏️ Class names standardized and spelling corrected with the help of a Agriculture Professional and ChatGPT  
- 🔗 Folder names normalized using underscore format  

Real-world variability (lighting, background, leaf condition) was intentionally preserved.

---

#### 👤 Who are the source data producers?

-Students and Faculty of ECE Dept, Bapatla Engineering College, Bapatla
- Plant enthusiasts 🌿  
- Researchers & contributors  
- Public-domain and permissively licensed sources  

🚫 No personal identity data is included.

---

## 🏷️ Annotations

### 🧾 Annotation Process

- Labels assigned at **folder level** manually and verified with Agriculture Professional and Chatgpt
- Images inherit the label of their parent directory
- No bounding boxes or segmentation masks provided

### 👥 Who are the annotators?

- Dataset contributors  
- Manual verification using botanical references where possible  

---

### 🔐 Personal and Sensitive Information

✅ The dataset **does not contain**:
- Personal data  
- Human faces  
- Sensitive or private information  

---

## ⚖️ Bias, Risks, and Limitations

- 🌍 Geographic imbalance in species distribution  
- 🌱 Visually similar species across classes  
- 🖼️ Background bias may affect model learning  
- 🍃 Some images include damaged or diseased leaves
- Users are advised to use it at their own risk. Any corrections may be informed. We will rectify.  

---

### 🧭 Recommendations

Users are encouraged to:

- 🔁 Apply data augmentation  
- 📊 Use cross-validation  
- 🧪 Test models on external datasets  
- ⚠️ Avoid real-world decisions based solely on predictions
