KU-BD-Fish: High-Resolution White-Background and Segmented Images for Species Classification

File organisation: The images are organised into folders that are specific to each species, and a metadata file that goes with them provides a list of the species names and other pertinent information.For example the folder named Rui contains all the photos of Rui fish in both Raw_images and Segmented_Images folder. The following are some possible uses for these datasets: 1. Morphological analysis: It is useful for accurately measuring and comparing the body structures of fish. 2.

Machine-learning research: It can be used to train and assess models for segmentation, object detection, and species classification. 3. Educational use: It offers excellent specimen photos for conservation education, aquaria, and ichthyology classes. 4. Taxonomic and biodiversity research: Its standardized, high-resolution specimen images can facilitate accurate species identification and reliable assessments of biodiversity, supporting ecological and conservation research.
