DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND

Announcement of Requirements and
Registration for ‘‘Pill Image
Recognition Challenge’’
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 3719
The Pill Image Recognition
Challenge is a National Institutes of
Health (NIH) Challenge under the
America COMPETES (Creating
Opportunities to Meaningfully Promote
Excellence in Technology, Education,
and Science) Reauthorization Act of
2010 (Pub. L. 111–358). Through this
Challenge, the National Library of
Medicine (NLM), part of NIH, seeks
algorithms and software to match
images of prescription oral solid-dose
pharmaceutical medications (pills,
including capsules and tablets). The
objective of the Challenge is the
development and discovery of highquality algorithms and software that
rank how well consumer images of
prescription pills match reference
images of pills in the authoritative NLM
RxIMAGE database. NLM may use all or
part of any Challenge entry (i.e.,
algorithm and software) to create a
future software system and a future API
(Application Programming Interface) for
pill image recognition; the system will
be freely usable and the API will be
freely accessible.
DATES: NLM will make a set of
consumer-quality images and a
companion set of reference images
publicly available on January 15, 2016.
The Challenge begins January 19,
2016.
Submission period: April 4, 2016 to
May 31, 2016.
Judging period: June 6, 2016 to July
15, 2016.
Winners announced: August 1, 2016.

ADDRESSES:

SUMMARY:
Submissions received by NLM after
the submission period ends will not be
considered. A submission is considered
to meet the submission deadline if it is
received by May 31, 2016, 5:00 p.m.
EDT. While NLM plans to acknowledge
receipt of each Challenge submission,
the Government is under no obligation
to acknowledge receipt of the
information received or provide
feedback to respondents with respect to
any information submitted. NLM will
amend this Federal Register notice if
the timeline or the rules for the
Challenge are modified. In addition,
NLM will notify registered Challenge
participants by email of any
amendments and will include the
modified Challenge showing the
changes.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
The IC’s Statutory Authority To
Conduct the Challenge
What has become today’s National
Library of Medicine began in 1836 as a
small collection of medical books and
journals in the office of the U.S. Army
Surgeon General. A 1956 act of Congress
(Pub. L. 84–941) transferred the library
to the Public Health Service and gave it
its current name. That law authorizes
NLM to ‘‘assist the advancement of
medical and related sciences and to aid
the dissemination and exchange of
scientific and other information
important to the progress of medicine
and to the public health’’ and to
‘‘promote the use of computers and
telecommunications by health
professionals (including health
professionals in rural areas) for the
purpose of improving access to
biomedical information for health care
delivery and medical research.’’ In
addition to its subject-matter authority,
NLM is conducting this competition
under the America COMPETES
Reauthorization Act of 2010 (Pub. L.
111–358).

Subject of Challenge
Unidentified and misidentified
prescription pills present challenges for
patients and professionals. Unidentified
pills can be found by family members,
health professionals, educators, and law
enforcement. The nine out of 10 U.S.
citizens over age 65 who take more than
one prescription pill can be prone to
misidentifying those pills. Taking such
pills can result in adverse drug events
that affect health or cause death. To
reduce such errors, any person should
easily be able to confirm that a
prescription pill or a refill is correct. For
example, a person should be able to
easily verify—or not—that a refill that
has a different color, shape, or text
imprinted on the pill is a different
generic version of equivalent drugs he
or she was already taking.
To help address these problems, the
NLM Computational Photography
Project for Pill Identification (C3PI) is
developing infrastructure and tools for
identifying prescription pills. The
infrastructure includes photographs of
such pills taken under laboratory
lighting conditions, from a camera
directly above the front and the back
faces of the pill, and at high resolution.
Specialized digital macro-photography
techniques were then used to capture
JPEG pill images. The NLM RxIMAGE
database contains these high-quality
images and associated pill data such as
appearance (color, shape, size, text
imprinted on the pill, etc.), ingredients,
and identifiers such as its National Drug
Code (NDC) [https://www.fda.gov/Drugs/
InformationOnDrugs/ucm142438.htm].
RxIMAGE images and data are freely
available. The freely accessible
RxIMAGE API provides text-based
search and retrieval of images and data
from the RxIMAGE database. By
contributing their algorithm and
software, Challenge participants will
take part in a broader NLM effort to
develop a freely usable software system
and a freely accessible API for imagebased search and retrieval from a mobile
device.
In a typical scenario for a future NLM
mobile app, a person will download the
app and use it to photograph a
prescription pill, possibly under poor
lighting conditions, from an angle, or at
low resolution. The future app will
communicate with the future pill image
recognition software system, which may
use all or part of any Challenge entry,
to compare that photo to reference
images in the RxIMAGE database, and
will return one or more reference images
that most likely match the photographed
pill along with their associated pill data.
