One-hundred plant species leaves dataset. The dataset is derived from this paper: Charles Mallah, James Cope, James Orwell. Plant Leaf Classification Using Probabilistic Integration of Shape, Texture and Margin Features. Signal Processing, Pattern Recognition and Applications, in press. 2013.

(3)Dataset Information: 
 
 The original data directory contains the binary images (masks) of the leaf samples (colour images not included). There are three features for each image: Shape, Margin and Texture. For each feature, a 64 element vector is given per leaf sample. These vectors are taken as a contiguous descriptor (for shape) or histograms (for texture and margin). So, there are three different files, one for each feature problem. 
 Each row has a 64-element feature vector followed by the Class label. 
 There is a total of 1600 samples with 16 samples per leaf class (100 classes), and no missing values.

‘data_Sha_64.txt’ -> prediction based on shape

‘data_Tex_64.txt’ -> prediction based on texture

‘data_Mar_64.txt’ -> prediction based on margin
