## FinTwit Images

This dataset is a collection of a sample of images from tweets that I scraped using my [Discord bot](https://github.com/StephanAkkerman/fintwit-bot) that keeps track of financial influencers on Twitter.
The data consists of images that were part of tweets that did not mention a ticker.
This dataset can be used for a wide variety of tasks, such as image classification or feature extraction.

### FinTwit Charts Collection
This dataset is part of a larger collection of datasets, scraped from Twitter and labeled by a human (me). Below is the list of related datasets.
- [Crypto Charts](huggingface.co/datasets/StephanAkkerman/crypto-charts): Images of financial charts of cryptocurrencies
- [Stock Charts](https://huggingface.co/datasets/StephanAkkerman/stock-charts): Images of financial charts of stocks
- [FinTwit Images](https://huggingface.co/datasets/StephanAkkerman/fintwit-images): Images that had no clear description, this contains a lot of non-chart images

## Dataset Structure
Each images in the dataset is structured as follows:

- **Image**: The image of the tweet, this can be of varying dimensions.
- **Label**: A numerical label indicating the category of the image, with '1' for charts, and '0' for non-charts.

## Dataset Size
The dataset comprises 4,579 images in total, categorized into:

- 1,083 chart images
- 3,496 non-chart images

## Usage
I used this dataset for training my [chart-recognizer model](https://huggingface.co/StephanAkkerman/chart-recognizer) for classifying if an image is a chart or not.

## Acknowledgments
