ChestX-Det10-Dataset

ChestX-Det10 is a subset with instance-level box annotations of NIH ChestX-14 https://www.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/nih-clinical-center-provides-one-largest-publicly-available-chest-x-ray-datasets-scientific-community.

We select 3,543 images from NIH ChestX-14 and invite three board-certified radiologists to annotate them with 10 common categories of diseases or abnormalities.

The 10 categories are Atelectasis, Calcification, Consolidation, Effusion, Emphysema, Fibrosis, Fracture, Mass, Nodule, Pneumothorax.

Annotation:

The annotation files are train.json and test.json. The format in annotation files are:

{

"file_name": "xxx.png",

"syms": [s1, s2, ...],

"boxes": [[x1, y1, x2, y2], [x1, y1, x2, y2], …],

}

syms: The categories of thoracic abnormalities or diseases.

boxes: x1, y1, x2, y2 are left-top, right-bottom coordinates of the bounding box.

ChestX-Det10 Challenge:

We organized a competition named ChestX-Det10 Challenge. The challenge was divided into two rounds and more than one hundred teams participated in the challenge. Finally, six teams reached the second round. The challenge results are reported in https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.10298v2.

Evaluation:

If you want to evaluate your detection results, please use eval.py. The detection results of each test sample should be stored as a JSON file. The JSON file name needs to be the same as the Image file name. For example, 10000.png corresponds to 10000.json. The format in each JSON file is [{“nodule”: [x1, y1, x2, y2, score]}, {“mass”: [x1, y1, x2, y2, score]}, …]. x1, y1, x2, y2 are left-top, right-bottom coordinates of the bounding box. All JSON files should be put in one folder.

For evaluation, using recall (sensitivity) at fixed false positives per image as the main criteria. The threshold of positive sample IOU is set to 0.5. In eval.py, the rates of instance-level FP/image are set to 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2. Moreover, the avgrecall is the average of recall@0.05fp, recall@0.1fp and recall@0.2fp.
