Datasets ======== The ``pathml.datasets`` module provides easy access to common datasets for standardized model evaluation and comparison. DataModules -------------- ``PathML`` uses ``DataModules`` to encapsulate datasets. DataModule objects are responsible for downloading the data (if necessary) and formatting the data into ``DataSet`` and ``DataLoader`` objects for use in downstream tasks. Keeping everything in a single object is easier for users and also facilitates reproducibility. Inspired by `PyTorch Lightning `_. Using public datasets --------------------- PathML has built-in support for several public datasets: .. list-table:: Datasets :widths: 20 50 10 20 :header-rows: 1 * - Dataset - Description - Image type - Size * - :class:`~pathml.datasets.pannuke.PanNukeDataModule` - Pixel-level nucleus classification, with 6 nucleus types and 19 tissue types. Images are 256px RGB. [PanNuke1]_ [PanNuke2]_ - H&E - n=7901 (37.33 GB) * - :class:`~pathml.datasets.deepblur.DeepFocusDataModule` - Patch-level focus classification with 3 IHC and 1 H&E histologies.
