Honeybee Pollen

Texture features extracted from images of honeybee pollen

This dataset includes inputs which are texture features extracted from images of honeybee pollen loads captured by a stereomicroscope conected to a digital camera. The classes are the plant species: Cytisus, Castanea, Quercus, Rubus and Raphanus. The dataset has:

  • 2600 instances
  • 70 inputs
  • 5 classes

The data are in the file honeybee_pollen.dat. Each input is standarized with mean zero and standard deviation one. The file partitions.dat includes 10 groups of 3 lines, each group associated to a random partition of the available data. The first line in each group contains the indices of the training patterns (50% of the patterns); the second line contains the indices of the validation patterns (25% of the patterns); the third line contains the indices of the test patterns (25% of the patterns).
