Bean Disease Classification Uganda

The Makerere University bean image dataset used to train BeanWatchNet: smartphone photos of bean leaves collected in farmers' fields in twelve districts across three regions of Uganda, classified as angular leaf spot (ALS), bean rust or healthy, plus an 'unknown' class of unrelated images (other crops, cars, sky, buildings) added for out-of-distribution handling. Experts annotated the images, and the record provides them in training, validation and test splits. The dataset contains 8,623 images across 4 classes: als, bean_rust, healthy, unknown.
Images per class:

• als: 2,501
• bean_rust: 2,501
• healthy: 2,286
• unknown: 1,335

This dataset is indexed on https://project-agml.github.io/ as part of the AgML python library.

The original train/test/val split has been preserved in the split column.
