AwA (Animals with Attributes)

Introduced in Learning to detect unseen object classes by between-class attribute transfer1 Jan 2009 archive 2025-07-28

Animals with Attributes (AwA) was a dataset for benchmarking transfer-learning algorithms, in particular attribute base classification. It consisted of 30475 images of 50 animals classes with six pre-extracted feature representations for each image. The animals classes are aligned with Osherson's classical class/attribute matrix, thereby providing 85 numeric attribute values for each class. Using the shared attributes, it is possible to transfer information between different classes. The Animals with Attributes dataset was suspended. Its images are not available anymore because of copyright restrictions. A drop-in replacement, Animals with Attributes 2, is available instead.

All 3 leaderboards whose dataset resolves to this page shown (sort by any header). "First row" is the archive's own first row at snapshot, in the archive's row order; nothing here re-ranks and metric direction is not asserted.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

6 shown of 6 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 264. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
