Test dataset release

[HEROHE Grand-Challenge]

Dear participants

On behalf of the organizers I want to inform you that the test dataset link is available at the challenge's webpage.

All the best

Thanks. As a practical suggestion, since many of the participants will download the folder altogether and this means that each of us will have to wait for Google to zip everything, why not to provide a zipped version of everything too?

The 3DHISTECH's Slide Converter did not work on test images to convert them, though it worked for train data. 

Moreover, As Vincenzo mentioned, converting zip by google is a burden that takes time and sometimes fails.

The 3DHISTECH's Slide Converter works for me in all 150 test slides and - as far as I can see up to now - CV2 is able to handle the generated TIFs. However, it was necessary to check the slide directories for missing dat files. I have downloaded these missing files separately from the subdirectory. This bypasses the zip procedure.

Thank you for help.

I found an alternative way. If you install RaiDrive app in PC and connect to the google drive, you can download or even apply slide converter from virtual drive with good speed.

Best regards.

Hi Vincenzo

I was away these last days. Sorry about the delayed answer.

I tried zipping all but the upload time was prohibitive. Somehow google's Backup and Sync deals better with many small files than with a 200Gb zipped one. At some point during the syncing process my computer went to sleep and when I wake it up the file was considered by google as fully uploaded when it was indeed at ~40% of  its size. Thus the option for leaving every file by itself.

Regarding downloading difficulties, I have to return to what I stated before. If you install backup and sync it will deal with the download and in a few hours (max 1 day depending on your network) it will have all the files on your computer (you have to add the shared folder to your "my Drive" in the web browser because it will only sync that folder to you computer).

I tested the solution described by MR Mohebian in this conversation (RaiDrive) and it seams to work fine. The disk was mounted and case viewer could open them. The only problem was the speed to zoom in and out (it need to remotely read the dat files and that takes time), but I could just copy-paste the whole folder to a local disk fast and then case viewer started working at is normal speed.

All the best

Eduardo
