# VINS Dataset Mirror

> **Important: this repository is an unofficial Hugging Face mirror of the VINS dataset.**
>
> The official project is: <https://github.com/sbunian/VINS>  
> The original dataset download is hosted on Google Drive by the VINS authors. This mirror is provided to make the dataset easier for the community to download from Hugging Face.

## Dataset description

VINS (**Visual Search for Mobile User Interface Design**) is an annotated dataset for mobile user interface design research, released with the CHI 2021 paper/repository “VINS: Visual Search for Mobile User Interface Design”.

According to the official repository, the dataset contains UI screens from two design stages:

- abstract wireframes
- high-fidelity fully designed interfaces

The UI screens are annotated with bounding boxes for UI component classes, including background images, sliding menus, pop-up windows, input fields, icons, images, text, switches, checked views, text buttons, and page indicators.

## Files in this mirror

- `VINS.zip` — original Google Drive dataset archive downloaded from the official VINS GitHub link.
