PaddleClas adopts `txt` files to assign the training and test sets. Taking the `ImageNet1k` dataset as an example, where `train_list.txt` and `val_list.txt` have the following formats:
[ImageNet](https://image-net.org/) is a large visual database for visual target recognition research with over 14 million manually labeled images. ImageNet-1k is a subset of the ImageNet dataset, which contains 1000 categories with 1281167 images for the training set and 50000 for the validation set. Since 2010, ImageNet began to hold an annual image classification competition, namely, the ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) with ImageNet-1k as its specified dataset. To date, ImageNet-1k has become one of the most significant contributors to the development of computer vision, based on which numerous initial models of downstream computer vision tasks are trained.

The CIFAR-10 dataset comprises 60,000 color images of 10 classes with 32x32 image resolution, each with 6,000 images including 5,000 images in the training set and 1,000 images in the validation set. The 10 different classes represent airplanes, cars, birds, cats, deer, dogs, frogs, horses, ships, and trucks. The CIFAR-100 dataset is an extension of CIFAR-10 and consists of 60,000 color images of 100 classes with 32x32 image resolution, each with 600 images including 500 images in the training set and 100 images in the validation set.
MMNIST is a renowned dataset for handwritten digit recognition and is used as an introductory sample for deep learning in many sources. It contains 60,000 images, 50,000 for the training set and 10,000 for the validation set, with a size of 28 * 28.
