# Dataset Card for Curated Gold Standard Cuthill Dataset

## Dataset Description
Dorsal full body images of subspecies of Heliconius Erato and Heliconius Melpomene (18 subspecies total).
960 images with 320 specimens, each photographed in RGB with bird and butterfly acuity included (3 images of each specimen).
Subset of images processed from Cuthill, et. al. dataset available at [doi:10.5061/dryad.2hp1978](https://doi.org/10.5061/dryad.2hp1978).

**Note:** `dorsal_images_cuthill` contains processed dorsal images from the original Cuthill dataset (all 1,234 specimens).

### Data Instances

* Type: PNG
* Size: 128px x 128px
* Background: [210, 210, 210] (gray)
* Fit in frame: Most padding is above and below the image, some on the left and right.
* Ruler or Scale: None
* Color (ColorChecker, white-balance, None): None


### Data Fields

**In [Hoyal_Cuthill_GoldStandard_metadata_cleaned.csv](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill/edit/main/Hoyal_Cuthill_GoldStandard_metadata_cleaned.csv):**

* `NHM_Specimen`: Natural History Museum Specimen number
* `Image_filename`: filename of image of specimen
* `View`: whether ventral or dorsal view of specimen (all dorsal)
* `Species`: species of specimen (melpomene or erato)
* `Subspecies`: subspecies of the specimen
* `Sex`: sex of the specimen (male or female)
* `addit_taxa_info`: additional taxonomic information (subspecies)
* `type_stat`: [More Information Needed] 'ST', 'PT', or 'HT', but mostly null
* `hybrid_stat`: hybrid status ('valid subspecies', 'subspecies synonym' or 'unknown' (only 1))
* `in_reduced`: [More Information Needed] 0 or 1 to indicate yes or no
* `locality`: where specimen was collected
* `lat`: latitude where specimen was collected
* `lon`: longitude where specimen was collected
* `speciesdesig`: species designation, first initial of species '.' subspecies (eg., 'm. rosina')

[Train_Test_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill/edit/main/Train_Test_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv) has three additional columns:
* `Image_filename_png`: filename of (png) image of specimen, `dorsal_images_cuthill/` + `<Image_filename_png>` is the filepath for the processed dorsal image
* `subset`: whether this is part of the training or test set (`train` or `test`)
* `filepath`: the filepath for the train or test image

[Acuity_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill/edit/main/Acuity_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv) also has `Image_filename_png` and `subset`, but `subset` references the bird and butterfly acuity training and test sets. Additionally, it has columns:
* `bird_filepath`: the filepath for the bird acuity version of the image
* `butterfly_filepath`: the filepath for the butterfly acuity version of the image


### Data Splits

There are 250 images in each training set and 70 in each test set.

RGB training images are in `train` folder and testing are in `test`.

For bird and butterfly acuities, their respective training and test images are in the `train_bird` (`train_butterfly`) and `test_bird` (`test_butterfly`) folders.

All of these folders are further subdivided by the subspecies. Filepaths to access these images are provided in [Train_Test_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill/edit/main/Train_Test_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv) and [Acuity_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill/edit/main/Acuity_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv), respectively.


## Dataset Creation

Processing steps included:
1. Hybrid Separation
2. Label Correction
3. Removal of subspecies with no mimic pairs
4. Make background uniform across all images
5. Make image square via padding

### Curation Rationale

[More Information Needed]

The original data has some misclassified species/subspecies and some localities were outside the known range of the butterflies. Furthermore, the bird and butterfly acuities were not part of the original dataset and provide another level of analysis.
