Despite best efforts to provide an ecologically valid dataset, ecoset is likely to contain biased data. The category selection of ecoset was based on human concreteness ratings and word frequencies in a corpus consisting of American television and film subtitles. This undoubtedly biases the category selection toward Western cultures. Image inclusion was based on the availability via Bing/Flickr search results as well as the existence of relevant ImageNet categories. Images depicting people, specifically the categories “man,” “woman,” and “child,” were not sampled according to census distributions (age, ethnicity, gender, etc.).
