Image dataset for benchmarking automated fish detection and classification algorithms.

ABSTRACT: Multiparametric video-cabled marine observatories are becoming strategic to monitor remotely and in real-time the marine ecosystem. Those platforms can achieve continuous, high-frequency and long-lasting image data sets that require automation in order to extract biological time series. The OBSEA, located at 4 km from Vilanova i la Geltrú at 20 m depth, was used to produce coastal fish time series continuously over the 24-h during 2013-2014. The image content of the photos was extracted via tagging, resulting in 69917 fish tags of 30 taxa identified. We also provided a meteorological and oceanographic dataset filtered by a quality control procedure to define real-world conditions affecting image quality. The tagged fish dataset can be of great importance to develop Artificial Intelligence
