Robust Object Detection

The COCO (Common Objects in Context) dataset is a large-scale object detection, segmentation, and captioning dataset. It is designed to encourage research on a wide variety of object categories and is commonly used for benchmarking computer vision models. It is an essential dataset for researchers and developers working on object detection, segmentation, and pose estimation tasks.

Cityscapes is a large-scale database which focuses on semantic understanding of urban street scenes. It provides semantic, instance-wise, and dense pixel annotations for 30 classes grouped into 8 categories (flat surfaces, humans, vehicles, constructions, objects, nature, sky, and void). The dataset consists of around 5000 fine annotated images and 20000 coarse annotated ones. Data was captured in 50 cities during several months, daytimes, and good weather conditions. It was originally recorded as video so the frames were manually selected to have the following features: large number of dynamic objects, varying scene layout, and varying background.

PASCAL VOC 2007 is a dataset for image recognition. The twenty object classes that have been selected are: Person: person Animal: bird, cat, cow, dog, horse, sheep Vehicle: aeroplane, bicycle, boat, bus, car, motorbike, train Indoor: bottle, chair, dining table, potted plant, sofa, tv/monitor The dataset can be used for image classification and object detection tasks.

Urban-scene detection dataset that consists of five different weather conditions: daytime-sunny, night-sunny, dusk-rainy, daytime-foggy, and night-rainy. The images are collected from diverse weather datasets: Cityscapes, BDD-100k, FoggyCityscapes, and Adverse-Weather. The dataset is used to evaulate the model performance on the single-domain generalized object detection (Single-DGOD). - Source paper: Single-Domain Generalized Object Detection in Urban Scene via Cyclic-Disentangled Self-Distillation - Source page: AmingWu/Single-DGOD - Source dataset: DWD (Diverse Weather Dataset)

The evaluation of object detection models is usually performed by optimizing a single metric, e.g. mAP, on a fixed set of datasets, e.g. Microsoft COCO and Pascal VOC. Due to image retrieval and annotation costs, these datasets consist largely of images found on the web and do not represent many real-life domains that are being modelled in practice, e.g. satellite, microscopic and gaming, making it difficult to assert the degree of generalization learned by the model. We introduce the Roboflow-100 (RF100) consisting of 100 datasets, 7 imagery domains, 224,714 images, and 805 class labels with over 11,170 labelling hours. We derived RF100 from over 90,000 public datasets, 60 million public images that are actively being assembled and labelled by computer vision practitioners in the open on the web application Roboflow Universe. By releasing RF100, we aim to provide a semantically diverse, multi-domain benchmark of datasets to help researchers test their model's generalizability with real-life data. RF100 download and benchmark replication are available on GitHub.

Separated COCO is automatically generated subsets of COCO val dataset, collecting separated objects for a large variety of categories in real images in a scalable manner, where target object segmentation mask is separated into distinct regions by the occluder.

The Aircraft Context Dataset, a composition of two inter-compatible large-scale and versatile image datasets focusing on manned aircraft and UAVs, is intended for training and evaluating classification, detection and segmentation models in aerial domains. Additionally, a set of relevant meta-parameters can be used to quantify dataset variability as well as the impact of environmental conditions on model performance.

Occluded COCO is automatically generated subset of COCO val dataset, collecting partially occluded objects for a large variety of categories in real images in a scalable manner, where target object is partially occluded but the segmentation mask is connected.

The Apron Dataset focuses on training and evaluating classification and detection models for airport-apron logistics. In addition to bounding boxes and object categories the dataset is enriched with meta parameters to quantify the models’ robustness against environmental influences.
