Dataset description


The Cultural Event Recognition dataset consists of images collected from two images search engines (Google Images and Bing Images). For this particular track, we chose 50 important cultural events in the world. In all the image categories, garments, human poses, objects and context do constitute the possible cues to be exploited for recognizing the events, while preserving the inherent inter- and intra-class variability of this type of images.
