Table 4 Description of some benchmarked datasets used for experimentation.
Database | No. of patients | No. of images | Cases of abnormalities | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
MIAS | 161 | 322 (MLO view of images) | All forms of abnormalities (32 shows architectural distortion) | Digitised to 50 micron pixel edge, and reduced to is 200 micron pixel edge and padded/clipped so that all the images are 1024 × 1024 |
Images include radiologist's truth-markings | ||||
DDSM | 2620 | 10,480 (MLO and CC view of images) | All forms of abnormalities (approximately 137 shows architectural distortion) | The database has some associated patient information (like age at the time of study) and image information (like spatial resolution) |
Images are marked with ground truth information about the locations and types of suspicious regions |
