# Dataset Card for 3dshapes
## Dataset Description
The **3dshapes dataset** is a **synthetic 3D object image dataset** designed for benchmarking algorithms in **disentangled representation learning** and **unsupervised representation learning**.
It was introduced in the **FactorVAE** paper [[Kim & Mnih, ICML 2018](https://proceedings.mlr.press/v80/kim18b.html)], as one of the standard testbeds for learning interpretable and disentangled latent factors. The dataset consists of images of **3D procedurally generated scenes**, where 6 **ground-truth independent factors of variation** are explicitly controlled:
- **Floor color** (hue)
- **Wall color** (hue)
- **Object color** (hue)
- **Object size** (scale)
- **Object shape** (categorical)
- **Object orientation** (rotation angle)
**3dshapes is generated as a full Cartesian product of all factor combinations**, making it perfectly suited for systematic evaluation of disentanglement. The dataset contains **480,000 images** at a resolution of **64×64 pixels**, covering **all possible combinations of the 6 factors exactly once**. The images are stored in **row-major order** according to the factor sweep, enabling precise control over factor-based evaluation.

## Dataset Structure
|Factors|Possible Values|
|---|---|
|floor_color (hue)| 10 values linearly spaced in [0, 1] |
|wall_color (hue)| 10 values linearly spaced in [0, 1] |
|object_color (hue)| 10 values linearly spaced in [0, 1] |
|scale| 8 values linearly spaced in [0.75, 1.25] |
|shape| 4 values: 0, 1, 2, 3 |
|orientation| 15 values linearly spaced in [-30, 30] |
Each image corresponds to a unique combination of these **6 factors**. The images are stored in a **row-major order** (fastest-changing factor is `orientation`, slowest-changing factor is `floor_color`).
### Why no train/test split?
The 3dshapes dataset does not provide an official train/test split. It is designed for **representation learning research**, where the goal is to learn disentangled and interpretable latent factors. Since the dataset is a **complete Cartesian product of all factor combinations**, models typically require access to the full dataset to explore factor-wise variations.
## Example Usage
Below is a quick example of how to load this dataset via the Hugging Face Datasets library:
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load the dataset
dataset = load_dataset("randall-lab/shapes3d", split="train", trust_remote_code=True)
# Access a sample from the dataset
example = dataset[0]
image = example["image"]
label = example["label"] # Value labels: [floor_hue, wall_hue, object_hue, scale, shape, orientation]
label_index = example["label_index"] # Index labels: [floor_idx, wall_idx, object_idx, scale_idx, shape_idx, orientation_idx]
# Label Value
floor_value = example["floor"] # 0-1
wall_value = example["wall"] # 0-1
object_value = example["object"] # 0-1
scale_value = example["scale"] # 0.75-1.25
shape_value = example["shape"] # 0,1,2,3
orientation_value = example["orientation"] # -30 - 30
# Label index
floor_idx = example["floor_idx"] # 0-9
wall_idx = example["wall_idx"] # 0-9
object_idx = example["object_idx"] # 0-9
scale_idx = example["scale_idx"] # 0-7
shape_idx = example["shape_idx"] # 0-3
orientation_idx = example["orientation_idx"] # 0-14
image.show() # Display the image
print(f"Label (factor values): {label}")
print(f"Label (factor indices): {label_index}")
```
If you are using colab, you should update datasets to avoid errors
```
pip install -U datasets
```

abstract = {We define and address the problem of unsupervised learning of disentangled representations on data generated from independent factors of variation. We propose FactorVAE, a method that disentangles by encouraging the distribution of representations to be factorial and hence independent across the dimensions. We show that it improves upon beta-VAE by providing a better trade-off between disentanglement and reconstruction quality and being more robust to the number of training iterations. Moreover, we highlight the problems of a commonly used disentanglement metric and introduce a new metric that does not suffer from them.}
