  • VIP-HARPET Dataset

    VIP-HARPET Dataset

    The VIP-HARPET dataset is a dataset of hockey action recognition and pose estimation in temporal space (HARPET) which consists of sequences of 3 images. Each sequence is pose annotated with respective classes labeled.

  • VIP-HARPE Dataset

    VIP-HARPE Dataset

    The VIP-HARPE is a custom dataset of static images for hockey action recognition and pose estimation (HARPE). The dataset consists of images of hand annotated images of 18 joints locations which include, head, thorax, hips, elbows, stick, etc., and grouped into classes such as skating, firm-feet, shooting and passing.

  • VIP-Sal Dataset

    VIP-Sal Dataset

    The VIP-Sal is a custom dataset of objects against a non-uniform background, under 3 drastic lighting conditions. Ground truth was obtained through manual segmentation.

  • VIP-LowLight Dataset

    VIP-LowLight Dataset

    The VIP-LowLight dataset is a set of natural images captured in very low-light conditions. The dynamic range of the images were scaled to show the image content and the corresponding amplification of the ISO noise.

  • VIP Visual Projection Assessment Dataset

    VIP Visual Projection Assessment Dataset

    The VIP VPA dataset (VPAD) is a dataset for image and video resolution enhancement assessment. The VPAD consists of a set of videos for various movies, documentary, sports, and TV news channels with the presence of moving and text-like regions.

  • VIP RGB-D Scene Flow Dataset

    VIP RGB-D Scene Flow Dataset

    Dataset of RGB-D data for scene flow estimation. Ground truth flow is provided.

  • VIP Illumination Saliency Dataset

    VIP Illumination Saliency Dataset

    A set of images used for evaluating illumination invariant saliency detection.

  • Texture Classification

    Texture Classification

    Texture Classification is the problem of distringuishing between textures, a classic problem in pattern recognition. Since many very sophisticated classifiers exist, the key challenge here is the development of effective features to extract from a given textured image.
