# IFCB Plankton Labeled (Cluster-Sorted)

This dataset contains labeled images of phytoplankton collected with the **Planktivore Imaging System**. Images were preprocessed with a zero-padding and resized to the standard size used for `ViT_b_16`


The dataset was originally constructed by clustering unlabeled ROI images using deep features from a ViT model.  
Clusters were then **saved locally** and **manually curated** into taxonomic labels and higher-order groups.

## Dataset Summary

- **Modality**: Images (PNG)  
- **Source**: Planktivore ROI captures  
- **Curation process**:  
  1. Extracted deep features with a ViT backbone.  
  2. Applied clustering (UMAP + HDBSCAN) to group morphologically similar images.  
  3. Exported clusters to local folders.  
  4. **Manually reviewed and sorted** each cluster into taxonomic categories (`label`) and broader groups (`group`).  

### Columns
- `image`: The plankton ROI image.  
- `label`: Fine-grained label (taxon).  
- `group`: Higher-order grouping (e.g. diatoms, dinoflagellates, ciliates).  

### Example
```python
from datasets import load_dataset

ds = load_dataset("patcdaniel/synchro-April2025-cluster-labeled-highMag")
sample = ds["train"][0]
sample["image"].show()
print("Label:", ds["train"].features["label"].int2str(sample["label"]))
print("Group:", ds["train"].features["group"].int2str(sample["group"]))
```
