I think a far better choice than "samples" would be "examples":
Example: Someone or something worthy of imitation or duplication; a model.
Sample: A portion, piece, or segment regarded as representative of a whole.
As for the subdirectory, I vote for "ipf", though I don't really object
to the others.
