ImageCLEF Fusion: Late Fusion Dataset

The ImageCLEFfusion contains 2 sets: i) media interestingness (ImageCLEFfusion-int) set and ii) result diversification (ImageCLEFfusion-div) set.

ImageCLEFfusion-int. The data is extracted from the Interestingness10k dataset [2]. It consists of the output data from 33 inducers, with 1826 samples for the development set, and 609 samples for the testing set.

ImageCLEFfusion-div. The data is extracted from the Retrieving Diverse Social Images Task dataset [3]. It consists of the output data from 117 inducers, with 104 queries for the development set, and 35 samples for the testing set.

The dataset was validated during the 2022 ImageCLEF fusion task and 2023 ImageCLEF fusion task.
