# UNICE Dataset Description
This is the dataset released with the paper: [UNICE: Training A Universal Image Contrast Enhancer](https://huggingface.co/papers/2507.17157).
The UNICE dataset is crucial for training a universal and generalized model for various image contrast enhancement tasks, free of costly human labeling. It comprises HDR raw images used to render multi-exposure sequences (MES) and corresponding pseudo sRGB ground-truths via multi-exposure fusion.
**Code:** [https://github.com/BeyondHeaven/UNICE](https://github.com/BeyondHeaven/UNICE)
## 1. `UNICEdataset.zip`
- **Type**: Multi-Exposure Sequences (MES)
- **Content**: sRGB images rendered from HDR raw images using an emulated ISP pipeline.
- **Structure**: Each sequence contains multiple images of the same scene with varying exposure values (EVs), from -3EV to +3EV.
- **Purpose**: Serves as input data for training and evaluating exposure and contrast enhancement models.
## 2. `pseudoGT.zip`
- **Type**: Pseudo Ground Truths
- **Content**: High-quality sRGB images generated by fusing the MES using an ensemble of multi-exposure fusion (MEF) techniques.
- **Purpose**: Used as the target output (pseudo-GT) for supervised training of enhancement models.
## 3. `pseudoGT_arniqa.csv`
- **Type**: Pseudo Ground Truth Quality Scores
- **Content**: ARNIQA scores for each pseudoGT image, indicating perceptual quality.
- **Purpose**: Enables quality-aware selection of pseudoGTs. Low-quality samples (e.g., score < 0.5) can be filtered out to improve training.
## Sample Usage
To download the dataset using Git LFS:
```bash
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/lahaina/UNICE
```
After downloading, you will find `UNICEdataset.zip` and `pseudoGT.zip`. For model training (e.g., as described in the associated code repository), you would typically extract these files and configure your `dataset_folder` to point to the extracted data. For instance, you might place the extracted contents into a directory like `data/exposure` and use it with the training scripts. |
