TREC CID

TREC CID (Conference on Information and Data Retrieval Collection for Image Description) is a specialized dataset used to evaluate how well computer systems can automatically generate descriptive captions for images. It provides a large set of images paired with human-written descriptions, enabling researchers to develop and test algorithms that interpret visual content and produce accurate, relevant text summaries. Essentially, TREC CID helps advance technology that allows computers to understand and describe images in ways similar to how humans do.
