This dataset contains both the artificial and real flower images of bramble flowers. The real images were taken with a realsense D435 camera inside the West Virginia University greenhouse. All the flowers are annotated in YOLO format with bounding box and class name. The trained weights after training also have been provided. They can be used with the python script provided to detect the bramble flowers. Also the classifier can classify whether the flowers center is visible or hidden which will be helpful in precision pollination projects.

In agriculture, the development of early treatment techniques for plant leaf diseases can be significantly enhanced by employing precise and rapid automatic detection methods. Within this realm of research, two common scenarios encountered in real field cases are the identification of different severity stages of diseases and the detection of multiple pathogens simultaneously affecting a single plant leaf. One major challenge faced in this area is the lack of publicly available datasets that contain images captured under these specific conditions.

A new generation of computer vision, namely event-based or neuromorphic vision, provides a new paradigm for capturing visual data and the way such data is processed. Event-based vision is a state-of-art technology of robot vision. It is particularly promising for use in both mobile robots and drones for visual navigation tasks. Due to a highly novel type of visual sensors used in event-based vision, only a few datasets aimed at visual navigation tasks are publicly available.
