Upload by Maeve

A novel dataset is presented to support machine learning for intelligent oyster mushroom cultivation, combining visual data with greenhouse environmental context. It includes 555 high-quality camera raw images from which approximately 16,000 manually annotated images were extracted, covering multiple mushroom shapes, maturity stages, and growing conditions. Images were captured in a greenhouse with two cameras and paired with time-stamped sensor measurements (temperature, relative humidity, and air quality, plus temperature/moisture inside composite bags) organized for accessible storage and model development.

State-of-the-art technologies such as computer vision and machine learning, are revolutionizing the smart mushroom industry by addressing diverse challenges in yield prediction, growth analysis, mushroom classiﬁcation, disease and deformation detection, and digital twinning. However, mushrooms have long presented a challenge to automated systems due to their varied sizes, shapes, and surface characteristics, limiting the effectiveness of technologies aimed at mushroom classiﬁcation and growth analysis. Clean and welllabelled datasets are therefore a cornerstone for developing eﬃcient machine-learning models. Bridging this gap in oyster mushroom cultivation, we present a novel dataset comprising 555 high-quality camera raw images, from which approximately 16.000 manually annotated images were extracted. These images capture mushrooms in various shapes, maturity stages, and conditions, photographed in a greenhouse using two cameras for comprehensive coverage. Alongside the images, we recorded key environmental parameters within the mushroom greenhouse, such as temperature, relative hu- E-mail address: [abdulsalam.hajhamed@uni-hohenheim.de](abdulsalam.hajhamed@uni-hohenheim.de) (A.

This dataset is unique in providing both visual and environmental time-point data, organized into four storage folders: “Raw Images”; “Mushroom Labelled Images and Annotation Files”;“Maturity Labelled Images and Annotation Files”; and “Sensor Data”, which includes time-stamped sensor readings in Excel ﬁles. This dataset can enable researchers to develop highquality prediction and classiﬁcation machine learning models for the intelligent cultivation of oyster mushrooms. Beyond mushroom cultivation, this dataset also has the potential tobe utilized in the ﬁelds

FAQs

What does the dataset contain?

The dataset includes annotated oyster mushroom images plus time-stamped environmental sensor data captured in a greenhouse. It also provides organized storage folders such as raw images, labeled images/annotations for mushrooms and maturity, and sensor data in Excel files.

How were the images captured and annotated?

Images were captured using two TP-Link Tapo C310 IP cameras during cultivation cycles, then manually extracted from raw images and annotated. The dataset covers different mushroom shapes and maturity stages using multiple annotation formats.

Which environmental parameters are recorded alongside the images?

Environmental parameters include greenhouse temperature, relative humidity, and air quality, as well as temperature and moisture inside mushroom composite bags. Sensor readings are time-stamped to link with the corresponding images.
