  • Description:

The Google RefExp dataset is a collection of text descriptions of objects in images which builds on the publicly available MS-COCO dataset. Whereas the image captions in MS-COCO apply to the entire image, this dataset focuses on text descriptions that allow one to uniquely identify a single object or region within an image. See more details in this paper: Generation and Comprehension of Unambiguous Object Descriptions.

The coco_train2014 folder contains all of COCO 2014 training images.
