LIVECell (Label-free In Vitro image Examples of Cells)
The LIVECell (Label-free In Vitro image Examples of Cells) dataset is a large-scale microscopic image dataset for instance-segmentation of individual cells in 2D cell cultures.
LIVECell consists of 5,239 manually annotated, expert-validated, Incucyte HD phase-contrast microscopy images with a total of 1,686,352 individual cells annotated from eight different cell types (average 313 cells per image). The LIVECell images have predefined splits into training (3188), validation (539) and test (1512) sets. Each split is also further subdivided into each of the eight cell types. The training set also has splits of different sizes (2, 4, 5, 25, 50%) to allow dataset size experimentation.

Papers archive 2025-07-28
2 shown of 2 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 18. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
