A large-scale MNIST-like collection of standardized biomedical images, including 12 datasets for 2D and 6 datasets for 3D. All images are pre-processed into 28x28 (2D) or 28x28x28 (3D) with the corresponding classification labels, so that no background knowledge is required for users. Covering primary data modalities in biomedical images, MedMNIST is designed to perform classification on lightweight 2D and 3D images with various data scales (from 100 to 100,000) and diverse tasks (binary/multi-class, ordinal regression and multi-label). The resulting dataset, consisting of approximately 708K 2D images and 10K 3D images in total, could support numerous research and educational purposes in biomedical image analysis, computer vision and machine learning.Providers benchmark several baseline methods on MedMNIST, including 2D / 3D neural networks and open-source / commercial AutoML tools.

Key Features

###

Diverse: It covers diverse data modalities, dataset scales (from 100 to 100,000), and tasks (binary/multi-class, multi-label, and ordinal regression). It is as diverse as the VDD and MSD to fairly evaluate the generalizable performance of machine learning algorithms in different settings, but both 2D and 3D biomedical images are provided.

Standardized: Each sub-dataset is pre-processed into the same format, which requires no background knowledge for users. As an MNIST-like dataset collection to perform classification tasks on small images, it primarily focuses on the machine learning part rather than the end-to-end system. Furthermore, we provide standard train-validation-test splits for all datasets in MedMNIST, therefore algorithms could be easily compared.

User-Friendly: The small size of 28×28 (2D) or 28×28×28 (3D) is lightweight and ideal for evaluating machine learning algorithms. We also offer a larger-size version, MedMNIST+: 64x64 (2D), 128x128 (2D), 224x224 (2D), and 64x64x64 (3D). Serving as a complement to the 28-size MedMNIST, this could be a standardized resource for developing medical foundation models. All these datasets are accessible via the same API.

Educational: As an interdisciplinary research area, biomedical image analysis is difficult to hand on for researchers from other communities, as it requires background knowledge from computer vision, machine learning, biomedical imaging, and clinical science. Our data with the Creative Commons (CC) License is easy to use for educational purposes.

Here we present a dataset, MNIST4OD, of large size (number of dimensions and number of instances) suitable for Outliers Detection task.The dataset is based on the famous MNIST dataset (http://yann.lecun.com/exdb/mnist/).We build MNIST4OD in the following way:To distinguish between outliers and inliers, we choose the images belonging to a digit as inliers (e.g. digit 1) and we sample with uniform probability on the remaining images as outliers such as their number is equal to 10% of that of inliers. We repeat this dataset generation process for all digits. For implementation simplicity we then flatten the images (28 X 28) into vectors.Each file MNIST_x.csv.gz contains the corresponding dataset where the inlier class is equal to x.The data contains one instance (vector) in each line where the last column represents the outlier label (yes/no) of the data point. The data contains also a column which indicates the original image class (0-9).See the following numbers for a complete list of the statistics of each datasets ( Name | Instances | Dimensions | Number of Outliers in % ):MNIST_0 | 7594 | 784 | 10MNIST_1 | 8665 | 784 | 10MNIST_2 | 7689 | 784 | 10MNIST_3 | 7856 | 784 | 10MNIST_4 | 7507 | 784 | 10MNIST_5 | 6945 | 784 | 10MNIST_6 | 7564 | 784 | 10MNIST_7 | 8023 | 784 | 10MNIST_8 | 7508 | 784 | 10MNIST_9 | 7654 | 784 | 10

Dataset card for SVHN

The Street View House Numbers (SVHN) dataset is a real-world image dataset developed and designed for machine learning and object recognition algorithms, and is characterized by low data preprocessing and formatting requirements. Similar to MNIST, SVHN contains images of small cropped numbers, but in terms of labeled data, SVHN is an order of magnitude larger than MNIST, comprising over 600,000 digital images. Unlike MNIST, SVHN deals with a much more… See the full description on the dataset page: https://huggingface.co/datasets/Genius-Society/svhn.

The PatchCamelyon benchmark is a new and challenging image classification dataset. It consists of 327.680 color images (96 x 96px) extracted from histopathologic scans of lymph node sections. Each image is annoted with a binary label indicating presence of metastatic tissue. PCam provides a new benchmark for machine learning models: bigger than CIFAR10, smaller than imagenet, trainable on a single GPU. ## Why PCam Fundamental machine learning advancements are predominantly evaluated on straight-forward natural-image classification datasets. Think MNIST, CIFAR, SVHN. Medical imaging is becoming one of the major applications of ML and we believe it deserves a spot on the list of go-to ML datasets. Both to challenge future work, and to steer developments into directions that are beneficial for this domain. We think PCam can play a role in this. It packs the clinically-relevant task of metastasis detection into a straight-forward binary image classification task, akin to CIFAR-10 and MNIST

This dataset reports data generated through the investigation of the problem of detection of label-noise in large pattern-recognition datasets. Specifically, results of label-noise reduction on two datasets are reported. The University of California, Irvine (UCI) Letter Recognition dataset and the Mixed National Institute of Standards and Technology (MNIST) Digit Recognition dataset was used to train an algorithm. The algorithm was then tested a Plankton dataset collected by the SIPPER (Shadow Imaging Particle Profiler and Evaluation Recorder) camera imaging system during trips to the site of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill. The experiment with the Plankton dataset represented a more practical application of data cleansing, because the label-noise naturally occurred in the data. Data presented in this database include the noise detected for four classes, total noise detected, and the percent accumulative noise detected for both the UCI and MNIST datasets. SIPPER data are not reported in this dataset. SIPPER data can be found in dataset R1.x130.000:0002 "Application of image processing and machine learning techniques to distinguish suspected oil droplets from plankton and other particles for the SIPPER imaging system". On a dataset that contained images of plankton with inadvertent noise, the new algorithm was able to detect all incorrect samples in the class of interest by reviewing only 5% of the data. Thus, the described approach helps to significantly reduce the effort needed to remove label-noise from data. Data published in: Felatyev, S., M. Shreve, K. Kramer, L. Hall, D. Goldgof, R.

Filename format:

For the 100x100 branch

image_index_100.jpg (e.g. 31_100.jpg) or

r_image_index_100.jpg (e.g. r_31_100.jpg) or

r?_image_index_100.jpg (e.g. r2_31_100.jpg)

where "r" stands for rotated fruit. "r2" means that the fruit was rotated around the 3rd axis. "100" comes from image size (100x100 pixels).

Different varieties of the same fruit (apple, for instance) are stored as belonging to different classes.

For the original-size branch

r?_image_index.jpg (e.g. r2_31.jpg)

where "r" stands for rotated fruit. "r2" means that the fruit was rotated around the 3rd axis.

The name of the image files in the new version does NOT contain the "_100" suffix anymore. This will help you to make the distinction between the original-size branch and the 100x100 branch.

For the multi branch

The file's name is the concatenation of the names of the fruits inside that picture.

How fruits were filmed

Fruits and vegetables were planted in the shaft of a low-speed motor (3 rpm) and a short movie of 20 seconds was recorded.

A Logitech C920 camera was used for filming the fruits. This is one of the best webcams available.

Behind the fruits, we placed a white sheet of paper as a background.
