| # ORena FOCUS 2026 — FRAME supplementary annotations (public half) |
|
|
| Supplementary VQA annotations produced by **MLO-Lab** for the ORena FOCUS 2026 FRAME track. |
| This is the openly releasable half; the LapChole-FOCUS half is withheld under that dataset's |
| usage agreement until the organisers publish it. |
|
|
| | | rows | |
| |---|---:| |
| | `vqa/heico_derived.jsonl` — HeiCo-FOCUS | 7,608 | |
| | `vqa/hernia_mesh.jsonl` — hernia videos | 1,350 | |
| | **total** | **8,958** | |
|
|
| Also included: `raw/hernia_mesh_annotations/` (12 frame-level annotation sheets) and |
| `frames/` (232 JPEGs, 30 MB). |
|
|
| ## Frames |
|
|
| **HeiCo frames are not redistributed.** Each row carries `frame_index`, the absolute frame |
| number in the source video, so the image resolves from your own copy of FOCUS at |
| `<root>/heico/frames/<video>/frame<NNNNNNN>.jpg`. |
|
|
| **Hernia frames are included** because the videos are not part of FOCUS. All 232 are frames |
| the annotation sheets mark up directly — the annotated set exactly, nothing beyond it. |
|
|
| ## Licensing |
|
|
| Not uniform — read before reuse. |
|
|
| * **HeiCo-derived questions** — derivative annotations of HeiCo-FOCUS; the underlying |
| dataset's terms apply. |
| * **Hernia frames and questions** — the source videos carry the **standard YouTube licence, |
| not an open licence**. We redistribute annotated frames only, never the video, under a |
| direct agreement with the channel owner, for **non-commercial research use only**. Full |
| provenance with titles and links is in [`SOURCES.md`](SOURCES.md) and `sources.json`. |
|
|
| ## Use |
|
|
| Code, schemas and the merge tooling: **https://github.com/MLO-lab/frame-orena** |
|
|
| ```bash |
| python annotations/fetch.py |
| sbatch slurm/1_prepare_data.sbatch |
| ``` |
|
|
| The remaining 5,048 questions are the withheld LapChole half, available on request. |
|
|
| ## Acknowledgements |
|
|
| We are grateful to Dr. Todd S. Harris of California Hernia Specialists, who kindly allowed us |
| to use twelve of his publicly available laparoscopic hernia-repair videos in this work. His |
| permission covers non-commercial research use and the release of the annotated frames; the |
| original videos remain his and are not redistributed. The video titles and links are listed |
| in `SOURCES.md`. |
