TD 01: Natural Ground Textures
This dataset contains multi-photo texture captures in outdoor nature scenes — all focusing on the ground. Each set has different photos that showcase texture variety, making them ideal for training a domain-specific image generator!
Overall information about this dataset:
- Format — JPEG-XL, lossless RGB
- Resolution — 4032 × 2268
- Device — mobile camera
- Technique — hand-held
- Orientation — portrait or landscape
- Author: Alex J. Champandard
- Configurations: 4K, 2K (default), 1K
To load the medium- and high-resolution images of the dataset, you'll need to install jxlpy
from PyPI with pip install jxlpy
:
# Recommended use, JXL at high-quality.
from jxlpy import JXLImagePlugin
from datasets import load_dataset
d = load_dataset('texturedesign/td01_natural-ground-textures', 'JXL@4K')
print(len(d['train']), len(d['test']))
The lowest-resolution images are available as PNG with a regular installation of pillow
:
# Alternative use, PNG at low-quality.
from datasets import load_dataset
d = load_dataset('texturedesign/td01_natural-ground-textures', 'PNG@1K')
# EXAMPLE: Discard all other sets except Set #1.
dataset = dataset.filter(lambda s: s['set'] == 1)
# EXAMPLE: Only keep images with index 0 and 2.
dataset = dataset.select([0, 2])
Use built-in dataset filter()
and select()
to narrow down the loaded dataset for training, or to ease with development.
