CTC Cell Cycle Dataset

Cell Tracking Challenge (CTC) live-cell microscopy with derived cell cycle state labels for 3-class temporal classification.

What's actually hosted

The repo name says hela for historical reasons. Currently hosted: Fluo-N2DH-GOWT1 (GFP-tagged Oct4 in mouse embryonic stem cells), which is what the milestone baseline trained on. HeLa data may be added later under a hela/ prefix.

SequenceFramesUsed as
01/92training
02/92held-out validation

Each sequence ships with the CTC ground-truth tracking under <seq>_GT/TRA/ (man_track*.tif masks + man_track.txt lineage) and segmentation under <seq>_GT/SEG/.

Label schema

Labels are derived algorithmically from lineage tree bifurcations — not annotated by hand.

IDLabelDefinition
0interphaseDefault proliferating state
1pre-mitosisRounding phase within 8 frames before division
2mitosisFrame of division ±3 frames (lineage tree split)

Class distribution (seq 01): interphase ~98%, pre-mitosis ~1.2%, mitosis ~0.6%. Use class weights or balanced sampling.
