VETO:VEssel TOpology groundtruth

These data set are released for academic research use only.

Dataset Description

We have labeled the vessel topology on four public-available retinal datasets:

  • INSPIRE [1]
  • VICAVR [2]
  • IOSTAR [3]
  • DRIVE [4]

Two experts were asked to manually label the topological information of the retinal vascular structure by using a graph editing software we developed for this task. Expert one and two independently labeled each vessel segment or centerline for all datasets, based on the types of available manual annotations of the vessel structure. Then the consensus between them was released for public use.

It is worth noting that the vessel segments or vessel centerlines were used for topology estimation were extracted either by human grader or automatic vessel segmentation method, i.e. the DRIVE and IOSTAR datasets include the manual annotations of retinal vessel for each image, so the topology reconstruction were performed at manual annotated vessel patterns; for VICAVR datasets, the topology estimation were performed at the automatic segmented vessels by using the automated segmentation method [5]; for INSPIRE dataset, the human expert graded the topology at the vessel centerline which were provided by [6].
