Description
The SymDerm Dataset is a collection of annotations of how symmetric skin lesions appear.
Each skin lesion is classified according as:
- Completely symmetric (2 perpendicular axes of symmetry).
- Partially symmetric (1 axis of symmetry).
- Asymmetric (No axes of symmetry).
This annotations are done by three different dermatologists on 615 images (1845 annotations in total) considering both the shape and the color/structures of the skin lesion. More information about the dataset can be found in:
