# Dataset Card for PathVQA

## Dataset Description
PathVQA is a dataset of question-answer pairs on pathology images. The dataset is intended to be used for training and testing 
Medical Visual Question Answering (VQA) systems. The dataset includes both open-ended questions and binary "yes/no" questions. 
The dataset is built from two publicly-available pathology textbooks: "Textbook of Pathology" and "Basic Pathology", and a 
publicly-available digital library: "Pathology Education Informational Resource" (PEIR). The copyrights of images and captions 
belong to the publishers and authors of these two books, and the owners of the PEIR digital library.<br>

### Dataset Summary
The dataset was obtained from the updated Google Drive link shared by the authors on Feb 15, 2023, 
see the [commit](https://github.com/UCSD-AI4H/PathVQA/commit/117e7f4ef88a0e65b0e7f37b98a73d6237a3ceab)
in the GitHub repository. This version of the dataset contains a total of 5,004 images and 32,795 question-answer pairs. 
Out of the 5,004 images, 4,289 images are referenced by a question-answer pair, while 715 images are not used.
There are a few image-question-answer triplets which occur more than once in the same split (training, validation, test). 
After dropping the duplicate image-question-answer triplets, the dataset contains 32,632 question-answer pairs on 4,289 images.

#### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards
The PathVQA dataset has an active leaderboard on [Papers with Code](https://paperswithcode.com/sota/medical-visual-question-answering-on-pathvqa) 
where models are ranked based on three metrics: "Yes/No Accuracy", "Free-form accuracy" and "Overall accuracy". "Yes/No Accuracy" is
the accuracy of a model's generated answers for the subset of binary "yes/no" questions. "Free-form accuracy" is the accuracy 
of a model's generated answers for the subset of open-ended questions. "Overall accuracy" is the accuracy of a model's generated 
answers across all questions.

#### Languages
The question-answer pairs are in English.

## Dataset Structure

### Data Instances
Each instance consists of an image-question-answer triplet.
```
{
  'image': <PIL.JpegImagePlugin.JpegImageFile image mode=CMYK size=309x272>,
  'question': 'where are liver stem cells (oval cells) located?',
  'answer': 'in the canals of hering'
}
```
### Data Fields
- `'image'`: the image referenced by the question-answer pair. 
- `'question'`: the question about the image.
- `'answer'`: the expected answer.

### Data Splits
The dataset is split into training, validation and test. The split is provided directly by the authors.
