## Flickr30k dogs and babies selection
The data set was created for an image-to-text/text-to-image tutorial of the
Advanced Natural Language Processing (KEN4259) course at Maastricht University.
To make a good demo, but limit the data size and required training time, we selected only images 
where the caption has a term for dog or a small child. Images were also cropped to squares and 
compressed to 128 x 128 pixels to fit into our SWIN transformer.
