BDRice: A comprehensive image dataset of bangladeshi rice classification in computer vision applications

This dataset introduces a newly developed dataset named "BDRice" which includes eight different types of rice from various regions in Dhaka city such as Uttara and Mirpur in Bangladesh. The eight different rice species are formerly defined with their local names. These are Mozumder , Mozzammel-Miniket, Utsob Nazir, Mizan ,Haski ,Pyzam, Nabil ,Atash. The dataset contains a total of 2,756 original images, filtered images 920 along with an additional 3,680 augmented images. We meticulously captured each original image under natural lighting conditions with an appropriate background. This comprehensive dataset holds immense potential for researchers in utilizing various ML and DL methods to advance the healthcare sector significantly. It is a valuable resource for future investigations, laying the foundation for crucial developments in these domains.
