Abstract

In order to evaluate image annotation and object categorisation algorithms, ground truth in the form of a set of images correctly annotated with text describing each image is required. Statistics on the WordNet categories of keywords collected from recent automated image annotation and object categorisation publications and evaluation campaigns are presented. These statistics provide a snapshot of keywords used to train and test current image annotation systems as well as information on the usefulness of WordNet for categorising them.
