Dataset for Instance Segmentation of Deformable Linear Objects

This dataset contains images of deformable linear objects (DLOs) in bin picking applications. The images show cables from control cabinet construction, which are provided in small load carriers. The dataset is divided into three scenarios, which differ in terms of cable arrangement: <br> <br> &gt;S1 Individual provision: One single DLO is provided in the small load carrier. <br> &gt;S2 Semi-structured provision: Multiple DLOs are provided in the small load carrier, but they do not overlap. <br> &gt;S3 Unstructured provision: In a small load carrier, multiple DLOs are provided and may overlap or cross each other. <br> <br> For each scenario, one subfolder with about 80 real-world images in JPG format is provided. The manually annotated instance masks are provided in COCO format as JSON files. In addition, the instance masks of the cables are visualized as JPG images.
