BCCD Dataset

BCCD Dataset is a small-scale dataset for blood cells detection.

Thanks the original data and annotations from cosmicad and akshaylamba. The original dataset is re-organized into VOC format. BCCD Dataset is under MIT licence.

You can download the .rec format for mxnet directly. The .rec file can be load by mxnet.image.ImageDetIter.

Overview of dataset

• You can see a example of the labeled cell image.

  We have three kind of labels :

  • RBC (Red Blood Cell)
  • WBC (White Blood Cell)
  • Platelets (血小板)

• The JPEGImages:

  • Image Type : jpeg(JPEG)
  • Width x Height : 640 x 480

• The Annotations : The VOC format .xml for Object Detection, automatically generate by the label tools. Below is an example of .xml file.
