Kaggle removes problematic stroke dataset for copyright infringement
['Anonymous Historian', 'Lowell Ramsey']

Only after prompting the journal to complain to Kaggle did the company take down the dataset.
The dataset page on Kaggle now shows a 404 error but no explanation for why it was removed.
The removal came months after Barnett tried unsuccessfully to convince Kaggle the widely used collection of stroke images was “scientific nonsense.”
By July, the journal had contacted Kaggle directly about the copyright violation, and Kaggle had removed the dataset.
The authors had used Kaggle images to train a stroke prediction model, but many of them were of people with Bell’s palsy, including those pulled from the JCDA paper.
