Description

The data set comprises a set of fish video recordings collected from various sources around and in Mangalore, Karnataka, India. The videos represent a variety of fish examples in various environments and aim to be a general sample of real world observations of fish. There are both single and multi fish recordings with variations in appearance, size, colour, movement and position of the recorded fish within the surrounding environment. The dataset is created by gathering fish recordings together to be accessed and utilized as a shared resource for future research. In some videos, the fish are visible and there are no reflections, objects or changes in visibility in the background. The differences are a part of the collected data and are a natural variation that can be seen within naturally obtained fish videos. The data set may also be used to investigate the performance of the various methods when the fish are captured in videos taken in different conditions. The videos obtained are from external sources and where applicable the source information should be retained. Overall, the dataset provides a general collection of fish videos that can be used as a reference and resource for future research and educational purposes.
