PitVis Challenge: Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery videos

The first public dataset containing both step and instrument annotations of the endoscopic TransSphenoidal Approach (eTSA). The dataset includes 25-videos (video_{video_number}.mp4) and the corresponding step and instrument annotation (annotations_{video_number}.csv). Annotation metadata mapping the numerical value to its formal description is provided (map_steps.csv and map_instrument.csv), as well as video medadata (video_encoder_details.txt). Helpful scripts and baseline models can be found on: https://github.com/dreets/pitvis. This dataset is released as part of the PitVis Challenge, a sub-challenge of the EndoVis Challenge hosted at the annual MICCAI conference (Vancouver, Canada on 06-Oct-2024). More details about the challenge can be found on the challenge website: https://www.synapse.org/Synapse:syn51232283/wiki/621581. The companion paper with comparative models is titled: "PitVis Challenge: Workflow Recognition in videos of Endoscopic Pituitary Surgery" (Adrito Das et al, in-press).
