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

: species designation, first initial of species '.' subspecies (eg., 'm. rosina')
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 imagesubset
: whether this is part of the training or test set (train
ortest
)filepath
: the filepath for the train or test image
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 imagebutterfly_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
and Acuity_Curated_GoldStandard_Hoyal_Cuthill.csv
, respectively.
Dataset Creation
Processing steps included:
- Hybrid Separation
- Label Correction
- Removal of subspecies with no mimic pairs
- Make background uniform across all images
- Make image square via padding
Curation Rationale
[More Information Needed] This dataset was curated for training a model to classify different species of Heliconius Butterflies and to take into account mimicry between species. The original data (Cuthill et al 2019) had misclassified species/subspecies and some locality/ collection sites were outside the known range of the butterflies. It also contained hybrid and aberrant samples, that had the potential to muddle classification results. To prevent this, the data was further refined by several Heliconius experts to remove hybrid and aberrant samples. Lastly, bird and butterfly acuities were added to provide another level of analysis.
