Image Synthesis with a Convolutional Capsule Generative Adversarial Network- Dataset

Dataset of 152 two-photon images (512x512) of axons with segmentation labels. 

We combined data from two published sources (Bass et al., 2017; Canty et al., 2018) to get 152 (512×512) 2D images (produced from 3D image stacks), and manually produced the corresponding labels. These images were collected using in-vivo two-photon microscopy from the mouse somatosensory cortex.  To generate the 2D images, we used a max projection over the 3D stack. The labels are binary segmentation maps of the axons.

This dataset is split into a train (132 images) and test (20 images) sets. The raw 2D images of axons are in /original folder, and the segmentation labels are in /mask folder.
