用零样本分割模型构建首个非洲地区沙眼眼睑数据集,助力盲症筛查。
OPTED: Open Preprocessed Trachoma Eye Dataset Using Zero-Shot SAM 3 Segmentation
- 用SAM 3模型通过文本提示自动提取眼睑红膜区域,无需标注。
- 在2832张图像中实现99.5%检测率,平均置信度达0.872。
- 数据集开源,适合医学影像与低资源疾病研究者使用。
沙眼仍是全球传染性致盲的首要原因,撒哈拉以南非洲承担了超过85%的负担,仅埃塞俄比亚就占所有病例的一半以上。然而,公开可用的自动化沙眼分类预处理数据集稀缺,且无一来自最受影响地区。原始临床眼睑照片包含大量背景噪声,影响机器学习应用。本文提出OPTED,一个基于分割一切模型3(SAM 3)构建的开源预处理沙眼眼睑数据集。我们设计了一个可复现的四步流程:(1)使用文本提示进行零样本分割,提取睑结膜区域;(2)去除背景并进行边界框裁剪与对齐;(3)基于置信度分数的质量过滤;(4)采用Lanczos插值缩放到224x224像素。另设提示选择阶段,从五个候选提示中筛选最优,最终确定“眼睑内表面带红色组织”为最佳提示,在全部2,832张已知标签图像上实现均值置信度0.872(标准差0.070)和99.5%检测率(剩余13张通过备用提示补全)。该流程输出两种格式:保持原始长宽比的裁剪对齐图像,以及可直接用于预训练模型的标准224x224图像。OPTED数据集、预处理代码及所有实验成果均已开源,以促进可复现的沙眼分类研究。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Trachoma remains the leading infectious cause of blindness worldwide, with Sub-Saharan Africa bearing over 85% of the global burden and Ethiopia alone accounting for more than half of all cases. Yet publicly available preprocessed datasets for automated trachoma classification are scarce, and none originate from the most affected region. Raw clinical photographs of eyelids contain significant background noise that hinders direct use in machine learning pipelines. We present OPTED, an open-source preprocessed trachoma eye dataset constructed using the Segment Anything Model 3 (SAM 3) for automated region-of-interest extraction. We describe a reproducible four-step pipeline: (1) text-prompt-based zero-shot segmentation of the tarsal conjunctiva using SAM 3, (2) background removal and bounding-box cropping with alignment, (3) quality filtering based on confidence scores, and (4) Lanczos resizing to 224x224 pixels. A separate prompt-selection stage identifies the optimal text prompt, and manual quality assurance verifies outputs. Through comparison of five candidate prompts on all 2,832 known-label images, we identify "inner surface of eyelid with red tissue" as optimal, achieving a mean confidence of 0.872 (std 0.070) and 99.5% detection rate (the remaining 13 images are recovered via fallback prompts). The pipeline produces outputs in two formats: cropped and aligned images preserving the original aspect ratio, and standardized 224x224 images ready for pre-trained architectures. The OPTED dataset, preprocessing code, and all experimental artifacts are released as open source to facilitate reproducible trachoma classification research.
