A zip file containing images for MNIST-M dataset

Check out my YouTube Video on MNIST attention maps

MNIST-M Dataset

MNIST-M is created by blending digits from the original set (MNIST) over patches that are randomly extracted from color photos in BSDS500 (Arbelaez et al., 2011). MNIST-M is usually used as a target dataset in domain adaptation tasks (Ganin et al., 2016).

MNIST-M for torchvision

The file MNIST-M.zip contains images from MNIST-M dataset organized into subfolders, where each folder represents a class. This setup makes it ready to be imported using torchvision.datasets.ImageFolder.

Making MNIST-M torchvision ready

You might have donwloaded MNIST-M, where images are not organized into subfolders. In this case, this code fragment could be useful. Run it twice, one for mnist_m_train_labels.txt and another run for mnist_m_test_labels.txt

import shutil
import os
import pandas as pd

df = pd.read_csv('mnist_m_train_labels.txt', sep=" ", header=None)
df.columns = ["file name", "subfolder"]
cwd = os.getcwd().replace('\\', '/')

for index, row in df.iterrows():
  print(row['file name'], row['subfolder'])
  shutil.move(os.path.join(cwd+'/',row['file name']), 
              os.path.join(cwd+'/', str(row['subfolder'])))
