Welcome to Caltech Image Classification AI Challenge!

The aim of this challenge is to develop an image classifier for given categories. RGB images of objects belonging to 256 categories are provided. It has about 40 to 800 images per category. The size of each image is roughly 300 x 200 pixels.

The unique categories can be determined using the training labels file "256_train.csv". The images can be of variable size, so the participants will have to adjust the sizes according to their models.

The dataset includes one training directory "256_train_imgs", training labels "256_train.csv" and test directory "256_test_imgs".

The output has to be generated for the "test" directory having 9,241 images having 256 output categories.

The final submission must include:

output.csv (single file having results for "test" directory which contains 9,241 images )

For grading, "output.csv" file must be uploaded in the "My Submission" section of this challenge.

The first row should correspond to the column names "Filename" and "Labels".
