Detection and recognition of hand drawn website UIs dataset

The increasing importance of User Interfaces (UIs) for companies highlights the need for novel ways of creating them. Currently, this activity can be slow and error prone due to the constant communication between the specialists involved in this field, e.g., designers and developers. The use of machine learning and automation could speed up this process and ease access to the digital space for companies who could not afford it with today’s tools. A first step to build a bridge between developers and designers is to infer the intent from a hand drawn UI (wireframe) or from a web screenshot. This is done by detecting atomic UI elements, such as images, paragraphs, containers or buttons. The provided data set consists of 4,291 hand drawn images inspired from mobile application screenshots and actual web pages. Each image comes with the manual labeling of the positions of the bounding boxes corresponding to each UI element and its type. To avoid any ambiguity, a predefined shape dictionary with 21 classes is used, e.g., paragraph, label, header. The development set contains 3,218 images while the test set contains 1,073 images.

The dataset was validated during the 2020 and 2021 ImageCLEF - Multimedia Retrieval at the Conference and Labs of the Evaluation Forum (CLEF).
