Introduced by Johannes Mehrer et al. in An ecologically motivated image dataset for deep learning yields better models of human vision15 Feb 2021 archive 2025-07-28

Ecoset, an ecologically motivated image dataset, is a large-scale image dataset designed for human visual neuroscience, which consists of over 1.5 million images from 565 basic-level categories. Category selection was based on English nouns that most frequently occur in spoken language (estimated on a set of 51 million words obtained from American television and film subtitles) and concreteness ratings from human observers. Ecoset consists of basic-level categories (including human categories man, woman, and child) that describe physical things in the world (rather than abstract concepts) that are important to humans.
