For temporal prediction on popularity, TPIC is an temporal image popularity dataset with 680K photos and corresponding anoynimized photo-sharing records on Flickr ranges of about 36 monthes. Specifically, TPIC is also a multi-faceted data collection, which contains photo image, user profile and photo metadata. We provide the popularity as the normalized views of each photo sharing behaviors. In order to protect the private information of sharing behaviors, we convert the timestamps to segmented time information and indexed of it by integer numbers.
- user&photo metadata (4.5MB)
- photo urls(6MB)
- time flag(2.5MB)
- labels(3MB)
Each row of data has a unique picture id(pid) along with user id(uid). All the CSV files listed above have data header that demonstrate the the meaning of the column.
The file organization inside the file contains picture id, user id, comment count, has people, title length, description length, tag count, average view, group count, average member count information:

THe data is crawled from Flickr with user id and photo id anonymized
Data organized inside the file are the phtoto urls correspond to given photo id and user id:

...
In order to use temporal information from dataset while protecting the user privacy, we extract year, month, day, and hour index with corresponding photo and user from dataset:
pid uid year month day hour_index
...
311862 11@N30 2007 3 16 4
311863 89@N59 2007 3 16 4
...
The definition of hour index is defined below:
-
Hour Index
-
0: 2am-6am
-
1: 6am-10am
-
2: 10am-2pm
-
3: 2pm-6pm
-
4: 6pm-10pm
-
5: 10pm-2am
The label file contains the popularity (log-views), picture id with associate user id:
pid uid logview
