The cigarette packaging defect dataset consists of 18,862 images encompassing 26 types of defects. Each image has a resolution of 1600×1200. We utilized the LabelImg software package to annotate the images, assigning a bounding box and a class label to each defect. These annotations are saved in VOC format. All data will be made publicly available upon the acceptance of the paper. For further details, please contact the corresponding author.
