Updating a dataset of labelled objects on raw video sequences with unique object IDs

Abstract

We present an update to the previously published dataset known as SFU-HW-Objects-v1. The new dataset is called SFU-HW-Tracks-v1 and contains object annotations with unique object identities (IDs) for the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) v1 Common Test Conditions (CTC) sequences. For each video frame, ground truth annotations include object class ID, object ID, and bounding box location and its dimensions. The dataset can be used to evaluate object tracking performance on uncompressed video sequences and study the relationship between video compression and object tracking, which was not possible using SFU-HW-Objects-v1.
