Dataset Card for Drill Core Image Dataset (DCID)

Dataset Details

Dataset Description

The Drill Core Image Dataset (DCID) is a large-scale benchmark designed for lithology classification based on RGB core images. It provides two primary versions:

• DCID-7: 7 lithology categories with 5,000 images per class.
• DCID-35: 35 lithology categories with 1,000 images per class.

All original images are 512×512 pixels in resolution. Each category is split into training and testing subsets in an 8:2 ratio. Additional variants are generated by resizing to smaller resolutions (32, 64, 128, 256) and applying real-world data augmentation (RWDA) to simulate image imperfections.

Visual Overview

DCID Naming Convention

The dataset naming follows the DCID-R-C-L-I format:

• R: resolution (32, 64, 128, 256, 512)
• C: number of categories (7 or 35)
• L: RWDA level (0.0 – 0.4)
• I: injection scope (N, T, E, A)

DCID-7 Dataset

The DCID-7 dataset contains 35,000 images (5,000 per category).
Each class has 4,000 training and 1,000 testing images (8:2 ratio).
This version is suitable for evaluating model upper-bound performance.

---

DCID-35 Dataset

The DCID-35 dataset contains 35,000 images (1,000 per category).
Each class has 800 training and 200 testing images.
This fine-grained version is designed to assess model generalization under complex conditions.

Usage

Step 1: Download and extract

Download the DCID.zip archive from Hugging Face and extract it:

unzip DCID.zip -d ./DCID

This will give you the following folders:

• DCID-512-7/ and noise-512-7/
• DCID-512-35/ and noise-512-35/

Step 2: Build custom dataset versions

We provide a script build_dcid_dataset.py to generate different dataset variants.

Example: Create a 32×32 resolution, 7 classes, 40% RWDA (train set only) dataset:

python build_dcid_dataset.py \
    --root ./DCID \
    --R 32 \
    --C 7 \
    --L 0.4 \
    --I T \
    --out_dir ./output

This generates a new dataset at:

./output/DCID-32-7-0.4-T/

Script Parameters

• R: target resolution (32, 64, 128, 256)

• C: number of categories (7 or 35)

• L: RWDA level (0.0–0.4)

• I: injection scope:

  • N: none
  • T: train set only
  • E: test set only
  • A: all (train + test)
