 ### Dataset Summary
 
-With over 10 million images covering 454 thousand taxa in the tree of life, TreeOfLife-10M is the largest-to-date ML-ready dataset of images of biological organisms paired with their associated taxonomic labels. It expands on the foundation established by existing high-quality datasets, such as iNat21 and BIOSCAN-1M, by further incorporating newly curated images from the Encyclopedia of Life (eol.org), which supplies most of TreeOfLife-10M’s data diversity. Every image in TreeOfLife-10M is labeled to the most specific taxonomic level possible, as well as higher taxonomic ranks in the tree of life (see [Text Types](#text-types) for examples of taxonomic ranks and labels). TreeOfLife-10M was generated for the purpose of training [BioCLIP](https://huggingface.co/imageomics/bioclip) and future biology foundation models.

All images have a non-null entry for this column.

-Note that the `species` column occasionally has entries such as "sp. ___(get ex)" with some string following. This seems to be used to indicate the species is unknown, but various specimens/images are known to be the same species.

 ## Dataset Creation
 
 ### Curation Rationale
 
-Previously, the largest ML-ready biology image dataset was [iNat21](https://github.com/visipedia/inat_comp/tree/master/2021), which consists of 2.7M images of 10K species. This is significant breadth when comparing to popular general-domain datasets, such as [ImageNet-1K](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imagenet-1k); 10K species are rather limited when considering the vast scope of biology. For context, in 2022, [The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN)](https://www.iucnredlist.org/) reported over 2M total described species, with over 10K distinct species of birds and reptiles alone. Thus, the lesser species diversity of iNat21 limits its potential for pre-training a foundation model for the entire tree of life.

+
+With this focus on species diversity and the need for high-quality images of biological organisms, we looked to the [Encyclopedia of Life Project (EOL)](https://eol.org/). EOL is an image aggregator that collaborates with a variety of institutions to source and label millions of images. After downloading 6.6M images from EOL, we were able to expand our dataset to cover an additional 440K taxa*.

+Insects (of the class Insecta with 1M+ species), birds (of the class Aves with 10K+ species) and reptiles (of the class Reptilia** with 10K+ species) are examples of highly diverse subtrees with many more species than other taxonomic classes. This imbalance among subtrees in the tree of life present challenges in training a foundation model that can recognize extremely fine-grained visual representations of these classes. To help address this challenge for insects, we incorporated [BIOSCAN-1M](https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.8030064), a recent dataset of 1M expert-labeled lab images of insects, covering 494 different families. The added variety of lab images, rather than in situ images (as in iNat21), further diversifies the _image_ distribution of TreeOfLife-10M.

 #### Annotation Process
 
-Annotations were primarily sourced from image source providers. 
-
-For iNat21 and BIOSCAN-1M images, the labels provided by those sources were used.
-- iNat21: iNaturalist English vernacular names and taxa were used.
-- BIOSCAN-1M: Linnaean taxonomic rankings were applied as labeled in the [BIOSCAN-1M dataset](https://zenodo.org/doi/10.5281/zenodo.8030064), which is all hand-labeled by experts. Note that the dataset provides other ranks (not considered in the 7-rank Linnaean taxonomy), such as tribe, which were not included in this dataset.
-
-For images from EOL, the scientific name (`genus-species`) was used to look up the higher-order taxa from the following sources as listed: BIOSCAN-1M metadata, EOL aggregate datasets (described below), then match this against the ITIS hierarchy for the higher-order taxa standardization. A small number of these are [homonyms](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homonym_(biology)), for which a list was generated to ensure proper matching of higher-order taxa (manual homonym resolution is in class `NameUpgrader` in the [naming script](https://github.com/Imageomics/bioclip/blob/main/src/imageomics/naming.py)). After these resources were exhausted, any remaining unresolved taxa were fed through the [Global Names Resolver (GNR) API](https://resolver.globalnames.org/api). Despite our efforts, we discovered after training that some hemihomonyms were mislabeled at higher-level taxa (family up to kingdom). This impacts approximately 0.1-0.2% of our data. We are in the process of developing a more robust solution to taxonomic labeling which will also account for re-naming (as is currently in process for many bird species). We intend to release a patch alongside the solution.
-
-This process allowed us to reach full taxa labels for 84% of images. To put this in perspective, 10% of images in TreeOfLife-10M are only labeled to the `family` level (no `genus-species` designations) as part of BIOSCAN-1M, so this places a cap on the taxa coverage. Taxonomic ranking also is not entirely standardized and agreed-upon throughout the biology community, so most gaps are more indicative of lack of consensus on label than missing information.

 This dataset is imbalanced in its representation of various species with the greatest representation available for those in the phyla _Arthropoda_, _Tracheophyta_, and _Chordata_ (see our [interactive treemap from phylum to family](https://huggingface.co/imageomics/treeoflife-10m/raw/main/phyla_ToL_tree.html) for further details of this distribution). This class imbalance is both a result of availability of images and actual variance in class diversity.

There are **no substantial differences to the dataset itself**; this version simply adds extra [files](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M/commit/5f1c0c80a94da39b7e84024d34f9b936db9f7ae1) and [instructions](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M/commit/343c36b9b362494065ac427ac1da989b834b22cf) required for reproducibility of the dataset, as well as the [BioCLIP text embeddings](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-10M/commit/4e719078e4cab104a0b631c0fd724ba9ee02411b) (from BioCLIP Revision 7b4abf1).

This updated version resolves taxonomic alignment issues discovered in the first version. The taxonomic resolution was completed using [TaxonoPy](https://github.com/Imageomics/TaxonoPy), which was developed for [TreeOfLife-200M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/imageomics/TreeOfLife-200M).
