Dataset Release for "Action Recognition in Video Recordings from Gynecologic Laparoscopy"
This dataset includes video annotations generated for the research paper titled: "Action REcognition in Video Recordings from Gynecology laparoscopy". This dataset includes 18 laparoscopic surgery videos randomly sampled from a collection of more than 600 recordings of gynecologic laparoscopic surgery at the Medical University of Vienna. All 18 laparoscopic surgery videos are segmented and annotated by clinical experts.
Dataset
The dataset encompasses annotations for the recognition and classification of six target actions in Laparoscopic surgery. These actions incluse Abdominal Access, Grasping Anatomy, Knot Pushing, Needle Pulling, Needle Pushing, and Suction. For each relevant action, we have provided a training and a testing set. The dataset is designed for implementing multiple binary classification approaches, where input vidoes are divided into two classes: the target action ant the remaining actions. This procedure is repeated for each target action, resulting in the creation of six binary classification models in total.
