ABSTRACT
Datasets and data sharing play an important role for innovation, benchmarking, mitigating bias, and understanding the complexity of real world AI-infused applications. However, there is a scarcity of available data generated by people with disabilities with the potential for training or evaluating machine learning models. This is partially due to smaller populations, disparate characteristics, lack of expertise for data annotation, as well as privacy concerns. Even when data are collected and are publicly available, it is often difficult to locate them. We present a novel data surfacing repository, called IncluSet, that allows researchers and the disability community to discover and link accessibility datasets. The repository is pre-populated with information about 139 existing datasets: 65 made publicly available, 25 available upon request, and 49 not shared by the authors but described in their manuscripts. More importantly, IncluSet is designed to expose existing and new dataset contributions so they may be discoverable through Google Dataset Search.
