Datasets of images, their ground truth, their saliency map for one model, and the manual annotations of the saliency maps with semantic concepts of various granularities, representing 10 species of birds. The images were selected in order to inject class-specific biases in the dataset.

Many eyes have scrutinized the social behaviors of computer vision services, given their popularity with researchers and developers. When analyzing images depicting people, their descriptions often reflect social inequalities and stereotypes, yet the proprietary nature of these services mean that it is difficult to anticipate or explain their behaviors. Mechanisms providing oversight of these processes can enable more responsible use, allowing stakeholders to audit their behaviors and track potential changes over time. Previously, in 2019, we audited image tagging algorithms for social bias when processing images of people. In this work, we i) present data from an audit of the same services three years later, with ii) additional outputs for input images depicting other racial/ethnic groups and iii) a toolkit enabling several fully-automated analyses on the algorithms' behaviors across time.

Full Description

ObjectNet is a large real-world test set for object recognition with control where object backgrounds, rotations, and imaging viewpoints are random.

Most scientific experiments have controls, confounds which are removed from the data, to ensure that subjects cannot perform a task by exploiting trivial correlations in the data. Historically, large machine learning and computer vision datasets have lacked such controls. This has resulted in models that must be fine-tuned for new datasets and perform better on datasets than in real-world applications. When tested on ObjectNet, object detectors show a 40-45% drop in performance, with respect to their performance on other benchmarks, due to the controls for biases. Controls make ObjectNet robust to fine-tuning showing only small performance increases.

We develop a highly automated platform that enables gathering datasets with controls by crowdsourcing image capturing and annotation. ObjectNet is the same size as the ImageNet test set (50,000 images), and by design does not come paired with a training set in order to encourage generaliz...

Enlarge the dataset to understand how image background effect the Computer Vision ML model. With the following topics: Blur Background / Segmented Background / AI generated Background/ Bias of tools during annotation/ Color in Background / Dependent Factor in Background/ LatenSpace Distance of Foreground/ Random Background with Real Environment!

We introduce XIMAGENET-12, an explainable benchmark dataset with over 200K images and 15,600 manual semantic annotations. Covering 12 categories from ImageNet to represent objects commonly encountered in practical life and simulating six diverse scenarios, including overexposure, blurring, color changing, etc.,

Our research builds upon the foundation laid by "Noise or Signal: The Role of Image Backgrounds in Object Recognition" (Xiao et al., ICLR 2022), "Explainable AI: Object Recognition With Help From Background" (Qiang et al., ICLR Workshop 2022), reinforced the notion that models trained solely on backgrounds can substantially improve accuracy. One noteworthy discovery highlighted in their studies is that more accurate models tend to rely less on backgrounds.

Vision-based cognitive services (CogS) have become crucial in a wide range of applications, from real-time security and social networks to smartphone applications. Many services focus on analyzing people images. When it comes to facial analysis, these services can be misleading or even inaccurate, raising ethical concerns such as the amplification of social stereotypes. We analyzed popular Image Tagging CogS that infer emotion from a person’s face, considering whether they perpetuate racial and gender stereotypes concerning emotion. By comparing both CogS and Human-generated descriptions on a set of controlled images, we highlight the need for transparency and fairness in CogS. In particular, we document evidence that CogS may actually be more likely than crowdworkers to perpetuate the stereotype of the “angry black man" and often attribute black race individuals with “emotions of hostility". This dataset consists of the raw data collected for this work, both from Emotion Analysis Services (EAS) and Crowdsourcing (Crowdworkers from the Appen (formerly known as FigureEight) Platform targeting US and India participants. We’ve used the Chicago Face Database (CFD) as our primary dataset for testing the behavior of the target EAS.

The Computer Vision Development market is experiencing robust growth, driven by increasing adoption across diverse sectors. While the exact market size for 2025 is not provided, considering a plausible CAGR of 20% (a reasonable estimate given the rapid technological advancements in AI and its applications) and assuming a 2024 market size of $15 billion (a conservative estimate based on industry reports), the market size in 2025 could be estimated at approximately $18 billion. This substantial growth is projected to continue throughout the forecast period (2025-2033), with the market potentially exceeding $50 billion by 2033, driven by factors such as the increasing availability of large datasets for training algorithms, advancements in deep learning techniques, and the rising demand for automation across industries. Key application segments fueling this expansion include mobile internet, security, finance, retail, and healthcare, with unmanned systems and education also showing significant potential. The market is largely shaped by the competition between leading companies like Face++, SenseTime, YITU, CloudWalk, and Deepblue, each striving for market share through innovative product development and strategic partnerships. The market segmentation reveals a dynamic landscape with various approaches to computer vision development, including SDKs, APIs, and other custom solutions. This diversity caters to different needs and technical capabilities across a broad range of applications. While geographical distribution varies, North America and Asia-Pacific are expected to remain dominant regions due to their mature technological infrastructure and robust investments in AI research and development. Restraints to market growth may include data privacy concerns, ethical considerations surrounding AI bias, and the high cost of developing and deploying sophisticated computer vision systems. However, ongoing technological advancements and increasing governmental support for AI initiatives are expected to mitigate these challenges and propel continued expansion in the computer vision development market.

Image analysis algorithms have become an indispensable tool in our information ecosystem, facilitating new forms of visual communication and information sharing. At the same time, they enable large-scale socio-technical research which would otherwise be difficult to carry out. However, their outputs may exhibit social bias, especially when analyzing people images. Since most algorithms are proprietary and opaque, we pro-pose a method of auditing their outputs for social biases. To be able to compare how algorithms interpret a controlled set of people images, we collected descriptions across six image tagging APIs. In order to com-pare these results to human behavior, we also collected descriptions on the same images from crowdworkers in two anglophone regions. While the APIs do not output explicitly offensive descriptions, as humans do, future work should consider if and how they reinforce social inequalities in implicit ways. Beyond computer vision auditing, the dataset of human- and machine-produced tags, and the typology of tags, can be used to explore a range of research questions related to both algorithmic and human behaviors.

The Teeth View X-ray Image Dataset is a collection of dental X-ray images gathered from different dental clinics. It is designed for machine learning tasks such as object detection. The dataset is organized into one main folder: the object detection dataset. The object detection folder contains 1,674 augmented images with corresponding labels in JSON format. By applying a diffusion model image to image, we have generated additional X-ray images of teeth scans to enhance the Teeth View X-ray Image Dataset to be deeper, more diverse, and beneficial for model tuning. The synthetic image contains various anatomy, density, and acquiring conditions of the tooth and thereby enhances the model's robustness for unusual dental conditions. The increased size of the dataset works to counterbalance class imbalance by having more examples of the under-represented classes and reducing model bias. Also, diffusion models demonstrate high effectiveness in reproducing noise patterns, making training more robust; improving the clarity of images through denoising processes; and enabling highly precise segmentation mask predictions to facilitate efficient boundary detection.

Deep learning features inferred from digital pathology scans can improve validity and robustness of current clinico-pathological features, up to identifying novel histological patterns, e.g., from tumor infiltrating lymphocytes. In this study, we examine the issue of evaluating accuracy of predictive models from deep learning features in digital pathology, as an hallmark of reproducibility. We introduce the DAPPER framework for validation based on a rigorous Data Analysis Plan derived from the FDA’s MAQC project, designed to analyze causes of variability in predictive biomarkers. We apply the framework on models that identify tissue of origin on 787 Whole Slide Images from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project. We test three different deep learning architectures (VGG, ResNet, Inception) as feature extractors and three classifiers (a fully connected multilayer, Support Vector Machine and Random Forests) and work with four datasets (5, 10, 20 or 30 classes), for a total of 53, 000 tiles at 512 × 512 resolution. We analyze accuracy and feature stability of the machine learning classifiers, also demonstrating the need for diagnostic tests (e.g., random labels) to identify selection bias and risks for reproducibility. Further, we use the deep features from the VGG model from GTEx on the KIMIA24 dataset for identification of slide of origin (24 classes) to train a classifier on 1, 060 annotated tiles and validated on 265 unseen ones. The DAPPER software, including its deep learning pipeline and the Histological Imaging—Newsy Tiles (HINT) benchmark dataset derived from GTEx, is released as a basis for standardization and validation initiatives in AI for digital pathology.
