Image dataset on the Chinese medicinal blossoms for classification through convolutional neural network

Tree blossoms have been widely used on the prevention and treatment of a variety of diseases in traditional Chinese medicine for thousand years [1,2]. The growth of flowers is not only for their ornamental value, but also for nutritional, medicinal, cooking, cosmetic and aromatic properties. They ar...

Edible flowers can promote the global demand for more attractive and delicious food, and can improve the nutritional content of gourmet food [4].
