Images were captured via a light-field camera using CIELAB color space (to simulate human visual perception) and then were manually labeled by a panel of subject matter experts after chart reviewing patients’ clinical information documented in the hospital’s information system.(1) a sample link lies at https://www.dataindustry.org/tongue; (2) another duplication of samples lies at IEEE DataPort as https://ieee-dataport.org/open-access/annotated-dataset-tongue-images; (3) due to the COVID-19, this dataset will be slowly increased, but will continuously grow; (4) we are still waiting for a Dataverse’s new tool coming soon called DataTag to allow sharing of sensitive data up to Harvard level 3 of data sensitivity.Data In Brief
