Load Dataset

from datasets import load_dataset
import os

ds = load_dataset("cyang203912/SSI-Bench")["test"]
print(ds)

output_dir = "./images"
os.makedirs(output_dir, exist_ok=True)

for ex in ds:
    index_val = ex["index"]
    images = ex["image"]     
    question = ex["question"]
    answer = ex["answer"]
    annotation_color = ex["annotation_color"]
    category = ex["category"]
    task = ex["task"]

    image_paths = []
    if images is not None:
        if not isinstance(images, list):
            images = [images]

        for n, img in enumerate(images):
            image_path = os.path.join(output_dir, f"{index_val}_{n}.jpg")
            img.save(image_path)
            image_paths.append(image_path)
