  As part of an ongoing worldwide effort to comprehend and monitor insect biodiversity, we present the BIOSCAN-5M Insect dataset to the machine learning community. BIOSCAN-5M is a comprehensive dataset containing multi-modal information for over 5 million insect specimens,
49
  and it significantly expands existing image-based biological datasets by including taxonomic labels, raw nucleotide barcode sequences, assigned barcode index numbers, geographical information, and specimen size.

- #### BIOSCAN-5M is partitioned to support both closed-world and open-world biodiversity learning:
54
-
55
- - **Closed-world (train, val, test):**
56
- Samples with known species names for supervised classification.
57
-
58
- - **Open-world (key_unseen, val_unseen, test_unseen):**
59
- Placeholder species but known genera, enabling generalization to unseen species.
60
-
61
- - **Novelty detection (other_heldout):**
62
- Unknown species and genus, suitable for open-set detection.
63
-
64
- - **Pretraining (pretrain):**
65
- Unlabeled data for self- or semi-supervised learning at scale.
66
-
67
- #### Supported Tasks
68
- - **Task I: DNA-based Taxonomic Classification**
69
- Predict taxonomic labels from raw DNA barcode sequences.
70
-
71
- - **Task II: Zero-Shot Transfer Learning**
72
- Evaluate whether unlabeled models can organize data into semantically meaningful clusters—across modalities like image and DNA—using learned representations.
73
-
74
- - **Task III: Multimodal Retrieval Learning**
75
- Retrieve matching specimens across modalities (e.g., image ↔ DNA ↔ Text) using shared embeddings.
