Recommended datasets for transfer learning

[oplatek]

Hi @ieee8023

thank you for maintaining this dataset!

I implemented a pytorch lightning wrapper for a DenseNet model for covid-chestxray-dataset.

It is kick of a Pytorch Lightning's community project which aims at to be covid19 detector (for educational purposes).

Can you recommend us datasets and strategies on how to use additional data

I have scanned https://arxiv.org/pdf/2002.02497.pdf (I will return to it). It seems that to solve the labeling differences and other dataset preparation differences quite a lot of domain expertise is needed. Any tips appreciated.

Kind regards

Ondra

PS: I was inspired by #15 PPS: My fork was merged to the PyTorchLightning community project PPPS: I believe that @borda already contacted you that we may use slack for longer discussions if needed. Link to the slack can be found at PL

  • 112k images
• Kaggle copy of NIH dataset

I also found a list of public medical imaging data collections, not restricted to lung X-ray at https://www.radrounds.com/profiles/blogs/list-of-open-access-medical-imaging-datasets radrounds.com

Hi Oplatek and Pkienzle, thank you so much for the question and the answer! Currently I'm trying to train a covid chest x-ray detection model. I have trained the classifier with Kaggle dataset. Now I want to train the classifier using covid, pneumonia, and normal data. I think I want to use covid data from this repository, but I'm having difficulty to find normal data. Are there any reference or suggestion?

Thank you so much!
