WEEE-Disassembly-Screw-Dataset

General:

The introduced screw dataset comprises a wide variety of device types, including damaged and deformable devices, as would be expected in a realistic disassembly scenario. Data were recorded under various lighting conditions, rotations, and device movements were employed. Recordings were made using a multi-camera configuration to obtain more informative views. Images captured from a close distance with a camera mounted on a screwdriver and a hand-held camera from various angles. Additionally, images from a greater distance were captured using cameras in fixed positions at a maximum distance of 90 cm.

The screw dataset consists of 945 high definition 1280x720 images, 4, 414 screw instances and 4.7 screws per image. Blur estimation was employed to exclude blurry frames from the annotation process. The dataset includes annotated data in COCO format for three different computer vision tasks: instance segmentation, object recognition, and semantic segmentation. From these images, 52.7% were recorded in a laboratory environment and 47.3% recorded in WEEE recycling plants. In the training, validation, and test sets, there are 765, 90 and 90 fully annotated frames, respectively

  • Annotations for 3 Computer Vision Tasks : Object detection(COCO format), Instance segmentation(COCO format), Semantic segmentation

  • Dataset Split --> 0.8/0.1/0.1 --> 765/90/90

  • High Definition (HD) Images 1280x720 --> 720P-HD

  • Damaged devices, Deformable devices, Big variability between devices

  • Multiple-camera setup resulted in more informative views, recordings from near and far distances and with different angle shots, cameras in fixed positions, different lighting conditions, rotations and movement of devices, camera mount on the Screwdriver, Hand-held camera.

  • Three different types of WEEE devices : PC Towers, Microwave Ovens, Flat Panel Displays [35% - 330 images/ 41% - 387 images/ 24% - 228 images]
