Introduction

Similar to datasets available on tfds, TF-Cholec80 offers a convenient interface for deploying the Cholec80 dataset within deep learning applications built with Tensorflow. This independent release addresses the shortcomings associated with tfds to allow flexible handling of Cholec80 in a variety of scenarios such as single-frame tasks with CNNs, temporal tasks with CNN-RNNs or inference. TF-Cholec80 is based on the code employed in the experiments performed for this publication. The demo we provide has two versions: one for TF 1.x and one for TF 2.x.

Data overview

The Cholec80 dataset, first introduced here, contains 80 videos of cholecystectomy surgeries performed by 13 surgeons. Frames extracted from the videos at 1 fps are provided, each frame labeled with the phase and tool presence annotations. The phases have been defined by a senior surgeon in our partner hospital. Since the tools are sometimes hardly visible in the images and therefore difficult to perceive, we define a tool as present in an image if at least half of the tooltip is visible.

Surgical phases:

Surgical instruments (instrument presence binary labels follow the order from this list):

Usage

prepare.py must be run first before using TF-Cholec80 . Download and extract the dataset to your preferred location (--data_rootdir). You may use the --verify_checksum flag to ensure the archive was downloaded without errors. If you wish to keep the archive after extraction please add the --keep_archive flag.

python prepare.py --data_rootdir YOUR_LOCATION

The path you provided will be written to tf_cholec80/configs/config.json.

Create a Tensorflow-compatible Dataset using make_cholec80:

from tf_cholec80.dataset import make_cholec80
ds = make_cholec80(12)

Only the minibatch size is required.

By default make_cholec80 will look for the config.json that was exported during installation (see next section), or in tf_cholec80/configs if installation was not performed. If using a different configuration file, please provide its path as the config_path argument.

Videos are indexed from 0 to 79. Limiting the dataset to specific videos can be done by supplying a list of indices as the video_ids argument. By default all 80 videos will be included.

Three modes of operation are supported based on the mode argument:

After running prepare.py, you will be able to use cholec80_tf1_demo.ipynb and cholec80_tf2_demo.ipynb which provide examples of how to use TF-Cholec80 for both Tensorflow versions.

Installation

Once the data is downloaded and extracted with prepare.py, only dataset.py and a config.json file are required to use TF-Cholec80 in your own code. You may also install it afterwards for added convenience:

pip install -e .

This will export a copy of your current config.json that will be used by TF-Cholec80 in the future.

Surgical phase recognition

An example of a deep learning task using TF-Cholec80 can be found here. A Jupyter notebook (phase_recognition_demo_tfc.ipynb) shows surgical phase recognition with a CNN-biLSTM-CRF with TF-Cholec80 as the input pipeline.
