Scientific Data 10, 716 (2023). https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-023-02608-yThe Tryp dataset provides bounding box annotations for detecting Trypanosoma brucei brucei in microscopy images of unstained thick blood smears. Extracting the Tryp.zip file unveils three main folders:
positive_imagesnegative_imagesvideosThe videos folder holds all the originally recorded videos, which were used to extract the images in the Tryp dataset and are categorized into positive and negative folders.
Inside the positive_images folder are three more folders:
trainvalidationtestEach folder contains two more folders, images and labels, and a JSON file. The images and labels folders hold the corresponding images and annotation files compatible with the YOLOv7 model. On the other hand, the JSON files have annotations in the MS COCO format, which is suitable for training the Faster R-CNN and RetinaNet models using the implementation by Torchvision.
