Description
The dataset Pharmaceutical Drugs and Vitamins Synthetic Images contains approximately 20,000 synthetic images depicting pills and supplements commonly distributed in the Philippines. Divided into 10 classes, the images are designed for visual classification tasks, with COCO annotations allowing use in advanced computer vision pipelines.
What is this dataset for?
- Train classification models of medical images of pill
- Test detection algorithms on synthetic data before real use
- Create educational applications about medication
Can it be enriched or improved?
Yes. It is possible to increase the data with transformation techniques (zoom, rotation, brightness), to cross with real databases for a mixed approach, or to integrate more detailed labels (dosage, color, shape). The dataset could also be used to test multi-category analysis models via COCO annotations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this dataset contain real or synthetic images?
These are synthetic images generated to simulate pills and vitamins, useful for educational and technical purposes.
Can this dataset be used for a medical project in production?
No, it is intended only for educational or exploratory uses, without official medical validation.
Do COCO annotations allow detection or just classification?
Annotations allow for both: supervised classification and localization for detector models like YOLO or Faster R-CNN.
