+ # Dataset Card for Patch-Based Visual Question Answering Dataset
32
+
33
+ ## Dataset Details
34
+
35
+ ### Dataset Description
36
+
37
+ This dataset contains approximately 160,000 triplets of `question`, `answer`, and `image` designed for patch-based visual reasoning tasks.
38
+
39
+ A standard question in this dataset is formatted as follows:
40
+
41
+ > Image Grid: The image is divided into a 4x4 grid of 16 equal-sized patches. Patches are numbered sequentially from the top-left corner and moving right, then down to the next row.
42
+ > Task: Identify the patch number(s) that contain a potted plant.
43
+ > Response Format: Provide only the relevant patch number(s) as a list (e.g., [3], [5, 12], or [] if none are found).
44
+
45
+ The dataset is built on top of **COCO-2017**, from which object bounding boxes (bboxes) are used to generate questions and answers.

57
+ ## Uses
58
+
59
+ ### Direct Use
60
+
61
+ - Training and evaluating **visual-language models (VLMs)** or other multimodal models.
62
+ - Patch-based object detection and reasoning.
63
+ - Research in **image question answering**, **visual reasoning**, and **multimodal representation learning**.
64
+
65
+ ### Out-of-Scope Use
66
+
67
+ - Direct commercial redistribution of original COCO images without following Flickr Terms of Use.
68
+ - Use cases where original images are required to be displayed in full, due to copyright restrictions.
69
+
70
+ ## Dataset Structure
71
+
72
+ - **question**: A textual description of the task referring to a 4x4 patch grid.
73
+ - **answer**: List of integers representing the patch indices containing the target object(s).
74
+ - **image**: Corresponding COCO-2017 image (PIL Image object or file path).
75
+
76
+ The dataset contains no explicit splits; users can generate their own train/validation/test splits as needed.
77
+
78
+ ## Dataset Creation
79
+
80
+ ### Curation Rationale
81
+
82
+ The dataset was created to facilitate **patch-level visual question answering** and to improve the training of visual-language models using real-world images with structured spatial queries.
83
+
84
+ ### Source Data
85
+
86
+ The dataset is based on COCO-2017 images and annotations. Bounding boxes from COCO are used to determine which patches contain specific objects (e.g., potted plants).
87
+
88
+ #### Data Collection and Processing
89
+
90
+ - Images are sourced from COCO-2017 (Flickr) respecting their Terms of Use.
91
+ - Bounding boxes from COCO are used to automatically generate 4x4 grid questions.
92
+ - Each question asks which patch(es) contain a specific object.
93
+ - Answers are stored as lists of patch indices.
94
+
95
+ #### Who are the source data producers?
96
+
97
+ Original images were contributed by Flickr users and annotated by the COCO Consortium.
98
+
99
+ ### Annotations
100
+
101
+ #### Annotation process
102
+
103
+ Annotations (bounding boxes) are sourced from COCO-2017. Patch assignments and questions were automatically generated programmatically based on bounding box locations.
104
+
105
+ #### Who are the annotators?
106
+
107
+ Annotations are from COCO annotators; patch-level questions are generated automatically.
108
+
109
+ #### Personal and Sensitive Information
110
+
111
+ The dataset does **not contain personal or sensitive information**.
112
+
113
+ ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
114
+
115
+ - Images reflect the distribution and biases present in COCO-2017.
116
+ - Models trained on this dataset may inherit biases from the original dataset.
117
+ - Limited to the objects annotated in COCO-2017.
118
+
119
+ ### Recommendations
120
+
121
+ Users should be aware of the **copyright limitations of the original images** and provide attribution for COCO annotations. Use transformed or model-generated outputs rather than raw images for publication if possible.
122
+
123
+ ## Glossary
124
+
125
+ - **Patch**: One of 16 equally sized blocks in a 4x4 grid over an image.
126
+ - **VLM (Visual-Language Model)**: A model that learns joint representations of images and text.
