# Feidegger

A Multi-modal Corpus of Fashion Images and Descriptions in German

## What is it?

The FEIDEGGER (fashion images and descriptions in German) dataset is a new multi-modal corpus that focuses specifically on the domain of fashion items and their visual descriptions in German. The dataset was created as part of ongoing research at Zalando into text-image multi-modality in the area of fashion.

![Alt text](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zalandoresearch/feidegger/master/docs/example.jpg)

The dataset itself consists of **8732 high-resolution images**, each depicting a dress from the available on the Zalando shop against a white-background. For each of the images we provide **five textual annotations in German**, each of which has been generated by a separate user. The example above shows 2 of the 5 descriptions for a dress (English translations only given for illustration, but not part of the dataset).

## Background

Unlike other tasks typically encountered in multi-modal learning, in fashion the informative information in the visual data often consists of very fine-grained details that needs to be reflected in the textual descriptions. Furthermore in order to generate such detailed descriptions, users must often rely on a domain-specific vocabulary. These particularities make the creation of a multi-modal fashion-related dataset a challenging task.

In order to create FEIDEGGER we leveraged crowd-sourcing while developing a novel annotation and assessment pipeline in order to ensure the high-quality of the final dataset. The pipeline and motivation behind various design decisions can be found in our published work.
