Surgical Visual Understanding (SurgVU) Dataset

摘要

Owing to recent advances in machine learning and the ability to harvest large amounts of data during robotic-assisted surgeries, surgical data science is ripe for foundational work. We present a large dataset of surgical videos and their accompanying labels for this purpose. We describe how the data was collected and some of its unique attributes. Multiple example problems are outlined. Although the dataset was curated for a particular set of scientific challenges (in an accompanying paper), it is general enough to be used for a broad range machine learning questions. Our hope is that this dataset exposes the larger machine learning community to the challenging problems within surgical data science, and becomes a touch-stone for future research. The videos are available at https://storage.googleapis.com/isi-surgvu/surgvu24_videos_only.zip, the labels at https://storage.googleapis.com/isi-surgvu/surgvu24_labels_updated_v2.zip, a validation set for tool detection problem at https://storage.googleapis.com/isi-surgvu/cat1_test_set_public.zip, and a sample set of question & answer pairs dataset for surgical visual question answering at https://storage.googleapis.com/isi-surgvu/SURGVU25_cat_2_sample_set_public.zip.
