UncertSAM Benchmark

Dataset Summary

UncertSAM is a curated multi-domain benchmark designed to stress-test segmentation foundation models (specifically the Segment Anything Model, SAM) under challenging conditions. It comprises eight datasets spanning diverse visual degradations and environments, including shadows, transparency, camouflage, and medical imaging.

This benchmark was introduced in the paper "Towards Integrating Uncertainty for Domain-Agnostic Segmentation" to investigate whether uncertainty quantification can enhance model generalisability and robustness in shifted or limited-knowledge domains.


Included Datasets and Licensing

⚠️ Important: The UncertSAM benchmark aggregates existing datasets. While the benchmark curation allows for domain-agnostic analysis, users must adhere to the original licenses of the individual subsets. Below is the licensing information for each component as detailed in the paper:

Dataset Preprocessing

To standardise the benchmarks for evaluation with SAM, several preprocessing steps were applied to the original data. The specific processing methods used for different subsets are described below:

1. Connected Component Analysis (CCA)

Applied to datasets containing images with multiple disconnected surfaces (potentially valid masks under SAM's entity-part strategy) to separate them into distinct masks.

  • Morphological Closing: Applied twice using a 3x3 kernel to connect small disconnected parts that belong to a larger coherent target.
  • Component Extraction: Connected components are extracted from the closed mask.
  • Refinement: A binary AND operation is performed between the resulting mask and the initial mask to remove artifacts introduced by closing. Components smaller than 1,000 pixels are discarded.

2. Colour Coded (CC) Processing

For datasets where masks are colour-coded (multiple classes/objects in one mask file), unique RGB values are extracted, and the mask is split into multiple binary targets accordingly.

3. CT Scan Processing (MSD Spleen)

The original 3D CT volumes (.nii.gz format) were processed into 2D images:

  • Slicing: Volumes were sliced along the axial plane, retaining only slices containing foreground labels.
  • Normalisation: Z-score normalisation was applied.
  • Clipping: Voxel intensities were clipped to the [0.05, 99.95] percentile range.
