# PanNuke
[![](https://production-media.paperswithcode.com/datasets/eb89f34e-880b-4ab0-9d9b-75d7b6bf3159.png)](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/pannuke)
## Dataset Description
- **Homepage:** [PanNuke Dataset for Nuclei Instance Segmentation and Classification](https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/tia/data/pannuke)
- **Leaderboard:** [Panoptic Segmentation](https://paperswithcode.com/sota/panoptic-segmentation-on-pannuke)
## Description
PanNuke is a semi-automatically generated dataset for nuclei instance segmentation and classification, providing comprehensive nuclei annotations across 19 tissue types and 5 distinct cell categories. The dataset includes a total of **189,744 labeled nuclei**, each accompanied by an instance segmentation mask, and contains **7,901 images**, each sized **256×256 pixels**. The images were captured at **x40 magnification** with a resolution of **0.25 µm/pixel**. The dataset is highly imbalanced, with the **"Dead" nuclei category** being particularly underrepresented.
Please note that the dataset was created by extracting patches from whole-slide images (WSIs). As a result, some nuclei located at the edges of patches may be cropped, with fewer than 10 visible pixels in certain cases.
## Dataset Structure
The dataset is organized into three folds: `fold1`, `fold2`, and `fold3`, consistent with the original dataset structure. Each fold contains data in a tabular format with the following four columns:
- **`image`**: The RGB tile of the sample.
- **`instances`**: A list of nuclei instances. Each instance represents exactly one nucleus and is in binary format (`1` - nucleus, `0` - background)
- **`categories`**: An integer class label for each nucleus, corresponding to one of the following categories:
0. Neoplastic
1. Inflammatory
2. Connective
3. Dead
4. Epithelial
- **`tissue`**: The integer tissue type from which the sample originates, belonging to one of these categories:
0. Adrenal Gland
1. Bile Duct
2. Bladder
3. Breast
4. Cervix
5. Colon
6. Esophagus
7. Head & Neck
8. Kidney
9. Liver
10. Lung
11. Ovarian
12. Pancreatic
13. Prostate
14. Skin
15. Stomach
16. Testis
17. Thyroid
18. Uterus
