The not-MNIST dataset is a dataset of handwritten digits. It is a challenging dataset that can be used for machine learning and artificial intelligence research. The dataset consists of 100,000 images of handwritten digits. The images are divided into a training set of 60,000 images and a test set of 40,000 images. The images are drawn from a variety of fonts and styles, making them more challenging than the MNIST dataset. The images are 28x28 pixels in size and are grayscale. The dataset is available under the Creative Commons Zero Public Domain Dedication license.

Fashion-MNIST is a dataset of Zalando's article images consisting of a training set of 60,000 examples and a test set of 10,000 examples. Each example is a 28x28 grayscale image, associated with a label from 10 classes.

The MNIST dataset in HDF5 format.

Data can be loaded with the h5py package: pip install h5py, see demo

A dataset for magnetic particle imaging based on the MNIST dataset.

This dataset contains simulated MPI measurements along with ground truth phantoms selected from the https://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">MNIST database of handwritten digits. A state-of-the-art model-based system matrix is used to simulate the MPI measurements of the MNIST phantoms. These measurements are equipped with noise perturbations captured by the preclinical MPI system (Bruker, Ettlingen, Germany). The dataset can be utilized in its provided form, while additional data is included to offer flexibility for creating customized versions.

MPI-MNIST features four different system matrices, each available in three spatial resolutions. The provided data is generated using a specified system matrix at highest spatial resolution. Reconstruction operations can be performed by using any of the provided system matrices at a lower resolution. This setup allows for simulating reconstructions from either an exact or an inexact forward operator. To cover further operator deviation setups, we provide additional noise data for the application of pixelwise noise to the reconstruction system matrix.

For supporting the development of learning-based methods, a large amount of further noise samples, captured by the Bruker scanner, is provided.

For a detailed description of the dataset, see arxiv.org/abs/2501.05583.

The Python-based GitHub repository available at https://github.com/meiraiske/MPI-MNIST" href="https://github.com/meiraiske/MPI-MNIST" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://github.com/meiraiske/MPI-MNIST can be used for downloading the data from this website and preparing it for project use which includes an integration to PyTorch or PyTorch Lightning modules.

File Structure

All data, except for the phantoms, is provided in the MDF file format. This format is specifically tailored to store MPI data and contains metadata corresponding to the experimental setup. The ground truth phantoms are provided as HDF5 files since they do not require any metadata.

• SM: Contains twelve system matrices named SM_{physical model}_{resolution}.mdf. It covers four physical models given in three resolutions ('coarse', 'int' and 'fine'). The highest resolution ('fine') is used for data generation.
• large_noise: Contains large_NoiseMeas.mdf with 390060 noise measurements. Each noise measurement has been averaged over ten empty scanner measurements. This can be used e.g. for learning-based methods.

For dataset in ['train', 'test']:

• {dataset}_noise: Contains four noise matrices, where each noise measurement has been averaged over ten empty scanner measurements:
  1. NoiseMeas_phantom_{dataset}.mdf : Additive measurement noise for simulated measurements.
  2. NoiseMeas_phantom_bg_{dataset}.mdf : Unused noise reserved for background correction of 1.
  3. NoiseMeas_SM_{dataset}.mdf : System Matrix noise, that can be applied to each pixel of the reconstruction system matrix.
  4. NoiseMeas_SM_bg_{dataset}.mdf : Unused noise reserved for background correction of 3.
• {dataset}_gt: Contains {dataset}_gt.hdf5 with flattened and preprocessed ground truth MNIST phantoms given in coarse resolution (15x17=255 pixels) with pixel values in [0, 10].
• {dataset}_obs: Contains {dataset}_obs.mdf with noise free simulated measurements (observations) of {dataset}_gt.hdf5 using the system matrix stored in SM_fluid_opt_fine.mdf.
• {dataset}_obsnoisy: Contains {dataset}_obsnoisy.mdf with noise contained simulated measurements, resulting from {dataset}_obs.mdf and {dataset}_phantom_noise.mdf.

In line with MNIST, each MDF/HDF5 file in {dataset}_gt, {dataset}_obs, {dataset}_obsnoisy for dataset in ['train', 'test'] contains 60000 samples for 'train' and 10000 samples for 'test'. The data can be manually reproduced in the intermediate resolution (45x51=2295 pixels) from the files in this dataset using the system matrices in intermediate ('int') resolution for reconstruction and upsampling the ground truth phantoms by 3 pixels per dimension. This case is also implemented in the Github repository .

The PDF file MPI-MNIST_Metadata.pdf contains a list of meta information for each of the MDF files of this dataset.

Context

The MNIST Data set consists 60,000 images. The Digit Recognizer Challenge in Kaggle consist of 42000 images in training . For each image in the training set, I have created four shifted copies ( one per direction ).

That makes it 42000 * 5 = 210000 images in this dataset. Using this extended dataset, you will find that your model performs even better.

Content

Each image is 28 pixels in height and 28 pixels in width, for a total of 784 pixels in total. Each pixel has a single pixel-value associated with it, indicating the lightness or darkness of that pixel, with higher numbers meaning darker. This pixel-value is an integer between 0 and 255, inclusive.

Each pixel column in the training set has a name like pixelx, where x is an integer between 0 and 783, inclusive. To locate this pixel on the image, suppose that we have decomposed x as x = i * 28 + j, where i and j are integers between 0 and 27, inclusive. Then pixelx is located on row i and column j of a 28 x 28 matrix, (indexing by zero).

Inspiration

Got the idea to extend the data set from the the book "Hands on machine learing with scikit-learn and Tensorflow" The python script I wrote, to do the task would have taken a very long time as such, therefore used multiprocessing to accomplish the task.

A specific binarization of the MNIST images originally used in (Salakhutdinov & Murray, 2008). This dataset is frequently used to evaluate generative models of images, so labels are not provided.

Motivation

The goal of introducing the Rescaled Fashion-MNIST dataset is to provide a dataset that contains scale variations (up to a factor of 4), to evaluate the ability of networks to generalise to scales not present in the training data.

The Rescaled Fashion-MNIST dataset was introduced in the paper:

[1] A. Perzanowski and T. Lindeberg (2025) "Scale generalisation properties of extended scale-covariant and scale-invariant Gaussian derivative networks on image datasets with spatial scaling variations”, Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision, 67(29), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10851-025-01245-x.

with a pre-print available at arXiv:

[2] Perzanowski and Lindeberg (2024) "Scale generalisation properties of extended scale-covariant and scale-invariant Gaussian derivative networks on image datasets with spatial scaling variations”, arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.11140.

Importantly, the Rescaled Fashion-MNIST dataset is more challenging than the MNIST Large Scale dataset, introduced in:

[3] Y. Jansson and T. Lindeberg (2022) "Scale-invariant scale-channel networks: Deep networks that generalise to previously unseen scales", Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision, 64(5): 506-536, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10851-022-01082-2.

Access and rights

The Rescaled Fashion-MNIST dataset is provided on the condition that you provide proper citation for the original Fashion-MNIST dataset:

[4] Xiao, H., Rasul, K., and Vollgraf, R. (2017) “Fashion-MNIST: A novel image dataset for benchmarking machine learning algorithms”, arXiv preprint arXiv:1708.07747

and also for this new rescaled version, using the reference [1] above.

The data set is made available on request. If you would be interested in trying out this data set, please make a request in the system below, and we will grant you access as soon as possible.

The dataset

The Rescaled FashionMNIST dataset is generated by rescaling 28×28 gray-scale images of clothes from the original FashionMNIST dataset [4]. The scale variations are up to a factor of 4, and the images are embedded within black images of size 72x72, with the object in the frame always centred. The imresize() function in Matlab was used for the rescaling, with default anti-aliasing turned on, and bicubic interpolation overshoot removed by clipping to the [0, 255] range. The details of how the dataset was created can be found in [1].

There are 10 different classes in the dataset: “T-shirt/top”, “trouser”, “pullover”, “dress”, “coat”, “sandal”, “shirt”, “sneaker”, “bag” and “ankle boot”. In the dataset, these are represented by integer labels in the range [0, 9].

The dataset is split into 50 000 training samples, 10 000 validation samples and 10 000 testing samples. The training dataset is generated using the initial 50 000 samples from the original Fashion-MNIST training set. The validation dataset, on the other hand, is formed from the final 10 000 images of that same training set. For testing, all test datasets are built from the 10 000 images contained in the original Fashion-MNIST test set.

The h5 files containing the dataset

The training dataset file (~2.9 GB) for scale 1, which also contains the corresponding validation and test data for the same scale, is:

fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_tr50000_vl10000_te10000_outsize72-72_scte1p000_scte1p000.h5

Additionally, for the Rescaled FashionMNIST dataset, there are 9 datasets (~415 MB each) for testing scale generalisation at scales not present in the training set. Each of these datasets is rescaled using a different image scaling factor, 2^k/4, with k being integers in the range [-4, 4]:

fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte0p500.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte0p595.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte0p707.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte0p841.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte1p000.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte1p189.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte1p414.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte1p682.h5
fashionmnist_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize72-72_scte2p000.h5

These dataset files were used for the experiments presented in Figures 6, 7, 14, 16, 19 and 23 in [1].

Instructions for loading the data set

The datasets are saved in HDF5 format, with the partitions in the respective h5 files named as
('/x_train', '/x_val', '/x_test', '/y_train', '/y_test', '/y_val'); which ones exist depends on which data split is used.

The training dataset can be loaded in Python as:

with h5py.File(`

x_train = np.array( f["/x_train"], dtype=np.float32)
x_val = np.array( f["/x_val"], dtype=np.float32)
x_test = np.array( f["/x_test"], dtype=np.float32)
y_train = np.array( f["/y_train"], dtype=np.int32)
y_val = np.array( f["/y_val"], dtype=np.int32)
y_test = np.array( f["/y_test"], dtype=np.int32)

We also need to permute the data, since Pytorch uses the format [num_samples, channels, width, height], while the data is saved as [num_samples, width, height, channels]:

x_train = np.transpose(x_train, (0, 3, 1, 2))
x_val = np.transpose(x_val, (0, 3, 1, 2))
x_test = np.transpose(x_test, (0, 3, 1, 2))

The test datasets can be loaded in Python as:

with h5py.File(`

x_test = np.array( f["/x_test"], dtype=np.float32)
y_test = np.array( f["/y_test"], dtype=np.int32)

The test datasets can be loaded in Matlab as:

x_test = h5read(`

The images are stored as [num_samples, x_dim, y_dim, channels] in HDF5 files. The pixel intensity values are not normalised, and are in a [0, 255] range.

There is also a closely related Fashion-MNIST with translations dataset, which in addition to scaling variations also comprises spatial translations of the objects.

MedMNIST Pneumonia Dataset

The PneumoniaMNIST is based on a prior dataset of 5,856 pediatric chest X-Ray images. The task is binary-class classification of pneumonia against normal. The source training set is split with a ratio of 9:1 into training and validation set, and use its source validation set as the test set. The source images are gray-scale, and their sizes are (384–2,916) × (127–2,713). The images are center-cropped with a window size of length of the short edge and resized into 1 × 28 × 28.

Abstract

We introduce MedMNIST, a large-scale MNIST-like collection of standardized biomedical images, including 12 datasets for 2D and 6 datasets for 3D. All images are pre-processed into 28x28 (2D) or 28x28x28 (3D) with the corresponding classification labels, so that no background knowledge is required for users. Covering primary data modalities in biomedical images, MedMNIST is designed to perform classification on lightweight 2D and 3D images with various data scales (from 100 to 100,000) and diverse tasks (binary/multi-class, ordinal regression and multi-label). The resulting dataset, consisting of approximately 708K 2D images and 10K 3D images in total, could support numerous research and educational purposes in biomedical image analysis, computer vision and machine learning. We benchmark several baseline methods on MedMNIST, including 2D / 3D neural networks and open-source / commercial AutoML tools. The data and code are publicly available at https://medmnist.com/.

Disclaimer: The only official distribution link for the MedMNIST dataset is Zenodo. We kindly request users to refer to this original dataset link for accurate and up-to-date data.

Update: We are thrilled to release MedMNIST+ with larger sizes: 64x64, 128x128, and 224x224 for 2D, and 64x64x64 for 3D. As a complement to the previous 28-size MedMNIST, the large-size version could serve as a standardized benchmark for medical foundation models. Install the latest API to try it out!

Python Usage

We recommend our official code to download, parse and use the MedMNIST dataset:

% pip install medmnist% python

To use the standard 28-size (MNIST-like) version utilizing the downloaded files:

from medmnist import PathMNIST

train_dataset = PathMNIST(split="train")

To enable automatic downloading by setting download=True:

from medmnist import NoduleMNIST3D

val_dataset = NoduleMNIST3D(split="val", download=True)

Alternatively, you can access MedMNIST+ with larger image sizes by specifying the size parameter:

Filename format:

For the 100x100 branch

image_index_100.jpg (e.g. 31_100.jpg) or

r_image_index_100.jpg (e.g. r_31_100.jpg) or

r?_image_index_100.jpg (e.g. r2_31_100.jpg)

where "r" stands for rotated fruit. "r2" means that the fruit was rotated around the 3rd axis. "100" comes from image size (100x100 pixels).

Different varieties of the same fruit (apple, for instance) are stored as belonging to different classes.

For the original-size branch

r?_image_index.jpg (e.g. r2_31.jpg)

where "r" stands for rotated fruit. "r2" means that the fruit was rotated around the 3rd axis.

The name of the image files in the new version does NOT contain the "_100" suffix anymore. This will help you to make the distinction between the original-size branch and the 100x100 branch.

For the multi branch

The file's name is the concatenation of the names of the fruits inside that picture.

How fruits were filmed

Fruits and vegetables were planted in the shaft of a low-speed motor (3 rpm) and a short movie of 20 seconds was recorded.

A Logitech C920 camera was used for filming the fruits. This is one of the best webcams available.

Behind the fruits, we placed a white sheet of paper as a background.

Motivation

The goal of introducing the Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset is to provide a dataset that contains scale variations (up to a factor of 4), to evaluate the ability of networks to generalise to scales not present in the training data.

The Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset was introduced in the paper:

[1] A. Perzanowski and T. Lindeberg (2025) "Scale generalisation properties of extended scale-covariant and scale-invariant Gaussian derivative networks on image datasets with spatial scaling variations”, Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision, 67(29), https://doi.org/10.1007/s10851-025-01245-x.

with a pre-print available at arXiv:

[2] Perzanowski and Lindeberg (2024) "Scale generalisation properties of extended scale-covariant and scale-invariant Gaussian derivative networks on image datasets with spatial scaling variations”, arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.11140.

Importantly, the Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset contains substantially more natural textures and patterns than the MNIST Large Scale dataset, introduced in:

[3] Y. Jansson and T. Lindeberg (2022) "Scale-invariant scale-channel networks: Deep networks that generalise to previously unseen scales", Journal of Mathematical Imaging and Vision, 64(5): 506-536, https://doi.org/10.1007/s10851-022-01082-2

and is therefore significantly more challenging.

Access and rights

The Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset is provided on the condition that you provide proper citation for the original CIFAR-10 dataset:

[4] Krizhevsky, A. and Hinton, G. (2009). Learning multiple layers of features from tiny images. Tech. rep., University of Toronto.

and also for this new rescaled version, using the reference [1] above.

The data set is made available on request. If you would be interested in trying out this data set, please make a request in the system below, and we will grant you access as soon as possible.

The dataset

The Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset is generated by rescaling 32×32 RGB images of animals and vehicles from the original CIFAR-10 dataset [4]. The scale variations are up to a factor of 4. In order to have all test images have the same resolution, mirror extension is used to extend the images to size 64x64. The imresize() function in Matlab was used for the rescaling, with default anti-aliasing turned on, and bicubic interpolation overshoot removed by clipping to the [0, 255] range. The details of how the dataset was created can be found in [1].

There are 10 distinct classes in the dataset: “airplane”, “automobile”, “bird”, “cat”, “deer”, “dog”, “frog”, “horse”, “ship” and “truck”. In the dataset, these are represented by integer labels in the range [0, 9].

The dataset is split into 40 000 training samples, 10 000 validation samples and 10 000 testing samples. The training dataset is generated using the initial 40 000 samples from the original CIFAR-10 training set. The validation dataset, on the other hand, is formed from the final 10 000 image batch of that same training set. For testing, all test datasets are built from the 10 000 images contained in the original CIFAR-10 test set.

The h5 files containing the dataset

The training dataset file (~5.9 GB) for scale 1, which also contains the corresponding validation and test data for the same scale, is:

cifar10_with_scale_variations_tr40000_vl10000_te10000_outsize64-64_scte1p000_scte1p000.h5

Additionally, for the Rescaled CIFAR-10 dataset, there are 9 datasets (~1 GB each) for testing scale generalisation at scales not present in the training set. Each of these datasets is rescaled using a different image scaling factor, 2^k/4, with k being integers in the range [-4, 4]:

cifar10_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize64-64_scte0p500.h5
cifar10_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize64-64_scte0p595.h5

cifar10_with_scale_variations_te10000_outsize64-64_scte2p000.h5

These dataset files were used for the experiments presented in Figures 9, 10, 15, 16, 20 and 24 in [1].

Instructions for loading the data set

The datasets are saved in HDF5 format, with the partitions in the respective h5 files named as
('/x_train', '/x_val', '/x_test', '/y_train', '/y_test', '/y_val'); which ones exist depends on which data split is used.

The training dataset can be loaded in Python as:

with h5py.File(`

x_train = np.array( f["/x_train"], dtype=np.float32)
x_val = np.array( f["/x_val"], dtype=np.float32)
x_test = np.array( f["/x_test"], dtype=np.float32)
y_train = np.array( f["/y_train"], dtype=np.int32)
y_val = np.array( f["/y_val"], dtype=np.int32)
y_test = np.array( f["/y_test"], dtype=np.int32)

We also need to permute the data, since Pytorch uses the format [num_samples, channels, width, height], while the data is saved as [num_samples, width, height, channels]:

x_train = np.transpose(x_train, (0, 3, 1, 2))
x_val = np.transpose(x_val, (0, 3, 1, 2))
x_test = np.transpose(x_test, (0, 3, 1, 2))

The test datasets can be loaded in Python as:

with h5py.File(`

x_test = np.array( f["/x_test"], dtype=np.float32)
y_test = np.array( f["/y_test"], dtype=np.int32)

The test datasets can be loaded in Matlab as:

x_test = h5read(`

The images are stored as [num_samples, x_dim, y_dim, channels] in HDF5 files. The pixel intensity values are not normalised, and are in a [0, 255] range.
