🗂️ Dataset Structure

Features

Each instance contains the exact image object and its corresponding class label:

Features({
    'image': Image(decode=True),
    'label': ClassLabel(names=[
        'AlphaTauri F1 car',
        'Ferrari F1 car',
        'McLaren F1 car',
        'Mercedes F1 car',
        'Racing Point F1 car',
        'Red Bull Racing F1 car',
        'Renault F1 car',
        'Williams F1 car'
    ])
})

Data Sample

{
    'image': <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=RGB size=1920x1080>,
    'label': 'Ferrari F1 car'
}

🚀 Quickstart & Usage

Load the Dataset

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load directly from Hugging Face Hub
dataset = load_dataset("Rakesh7n/Formula_One_Cars")

print(dataset)
# Output:
# DatasetDict({
#     train: Dataset({ features: ['image', 'label'], num_rows: 1925 }),
#     test: Dataset({ features: ['image', 'label'], num_rows: 482 })
# })

ℹ️ Source Attribution & Modifications: This dataset is a modified version of Sagar Khanna's Formula One Cars Kaggle Dataset.

• Hierarchical Directory Removal: The original nested folder structure (Formula One Cars/<team>/<image>) has been removed and restructured into a single flat directory with standardized, unique sequential indexing (0000.jpg, 0001.jpg, ...).
• Data Cleaning & Validation: Verified with PIL.Image.verify() to remove corrupt/invalid non-image files.
• Hugging Face Native Format: Formatted with native Hugging Face Image() feature and standard 80/20 train/test split for one-line loading and training.
