• Abstract summary: VessMAP is a heterogeneous blood vessel segmentation dataset acquired by carefully sampling relevant images from a larger non-annotated dataset. A methodology was developed to select both prototypical and atypical samples from the base dataset. To demonstrate the potential of the new dataset, we show that the validation performance of a neural network changes significantly depending on the splits used for training the network.

• Abstract: Creating a dataset for training supervised machine learning algorithms can be a demanding task. This is especially true for medical image segmentation since one or more specialists are usually required for image annotation, and creating ground truth labels for just a single image can take up to several hours. In addition, it is paramount that the annotated samples represent well the different conditions that might affect the imaged tissues as well as possible changes in the image acquisition process. This can only be achieved by considering samples that are typical in the dataset as well as atypical, or even outlier, samples. We introduce VessMAP, a heterogeneous blood vessel segmentation dataset acquired by carefully sampling relevant images from a larger non-annotated dataset. A methodology was developed to select both prototypical and atypical samples from the base dataset, thus defining an assorted set of images that can be used for measuring the performance of segmentation algorithms on samples that are highly distinct from each other. To demonstrate the potential of the new dataset, we show that the validation performance of a neural network changes significantly depending on the splits used for training the network.

  We propose an architecture for image stratification based on a conditional variational autoencoder. We use a continuous latent space to represent the continuum of disorders and find clusters during training, which can then be used for image/patient stratification. We demonstrate that our method outperforms baselines in terms of kNN accuracy measured on a classification task against a standard VAE.
