# 📦 Screen2AX-Element

Screen2AX-Element is part of the **Screen2AX** dataset suite, a research-driven collection for advancing accessibility in macOS applications using computer vision and deep learning.

This dataset focuses on **UI element detection** from macOS application screenshots and is designed for training and evaluating object detection models.

---

## 🧠 Dataset Summary

Each sample in the dataset consists of:
- An application **screenshot** (`image`)
- A dictionary of **UI elements** (`objects`) with 2 keys:
  - `bbox` (`List[List[int]]`): List of bounding box coordinates in `[x_min, y_min, x_max, y_max]` format
  - `category` (`List[str]`): List of labels indicating the UI element type (`AXButton`, `AXDisclosureTriangle`, `AXLink`, `AXTextArea`, `AXImage`)

The dataset supports training deep learning models for object detection tasks specifically tuned for graphical user interfaces (GUIs) on macOS.

**Splits:**
- `train`
- `valid`
- `test`

**Task Category:**
- `object-detection`

## 📚 Usage

### Load with `datasets` library

```python
from datasets import load_dataset

dataset = load_dataset("MacPaw/Screen2AX-Element")
```

### Example structure

```python
sample = dataset["train"][0]
print(sample.keys())
# dict_keys(['image', 'objects'])

print(sample["objects"])
# {'bbox': [[x_min, y_min, x_max, y_max], ...], 'category': ['AXButton', ...]}
```
