ICH-17 dataset

This repository contains the images of the Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) in the Mekong Delta composed of 17 classes (ICH-17). This dataset is first introduced in the paper "Stacking of SVMs for classifying intangible cultural heritage images" [1].

The ICH-17 dataset is built by querying a text-based web search engine of Google, after which they manually annotated them. This dataset is part of the Aniage project (High Dimensional Heterogeneous Data based Animation Techniques for Southeast Asian ICH Digital Content).
