The Dataset contains images derived from the [Newspaper Navigator](news-navigator.labs.loc.gov/), a dataset of images drawn from the Library of Congress Chronicling America collection (chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/). 

> [The Newspaper Navigator dataset](https://news-navigator.labs.loc.gov/) consists of extracted visual content for 16,358,041 historic newspaper pages in Chronicling America. The visual content was identified using an object detection model trained on annotations of World War 1-era Chronicling America pages, including annotations made by volunteers as part of the Beyond Words crowdsourcing project. source: https://news-navigator.labs.loc.gov/

One of these categories is 'advertisements'. This dataset contains a sample of these images with additional labels indicating if the advert is 'illustrated' or 'not illustrated'.

This dataset was created for use in a [Programming Historian tutorial](http://programminghistorian.github.io/ph-submissions/lessons/computer-vision-deep-learning-pt1). The primary aim of the data was to provide a realistic example dataset for teaching computer vision for working with digitised heritage material.

### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards

- `image-classification`: the primary purpose of this dataset is for classifying historic newspaper images identified as being 'advertisements' into 'illustrated' and 'not-illustrated' categories.
