abstract: "<p>This dataset contains the data used for the study ‘Waveform-Specific Performance of Deep Learning-Based Super-Resolution for Ultrasound Contrast Imaging’ (link will be added after publication). <strong>Contents:</strong>&nbsp;It consists of radiofrequency (RF) signals acquired during simulations and experiments, weights and biases of networks trained, and images reconstructed using delay-and-sum (DAS) beamforming. In addition to that, it also contains environments and packages used to process the data. <strong>Objective:</strong>&nbsp;To investigate the effect of transmit waveforms on the performance of deep learning-based approaches for localizing microbubbles in radiofrequency signals. <strong>Type of research:</strong>&nbsp;Fundamental, Physics, Biomedical. <strong>Method of data collection:</strong>&nbsp;In-silico and in-vitro. <strong>Type of data:</strong>&nbsp;RF signals (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.mat</code>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.txt</code>), super-resolved RF signals (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.txt</code>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.npy</code>), weights and biases (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.txt</code>), images generated with the (super-resolved) RF signals (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.mat</code>), videos generated with the (super-resolved) RF signals (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.mp4</code>), python environments (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.yaml</code>), microbubble size distributions (<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.fig</code>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<code style="color: rgb(199, 37, 78); background-color: rgb(249, 242, 244);">.png</code>).
