## Dataset Description
Our dataset augments the TAO dataset with amodal bounding box annotations for fully invisible, out-of-frame, and occluded objects.
Note that this implies TAO-Amodal also includes modal segmentation masks (as visualized in the color overlays above).
Our dataset encompasses 880 categories, aimed at assessing the occlusion reasoning capabilities of current trackers
through the paradigm of Tracking Any Object with Amodal perception (TAO-Amodal).
### Dataset Download
1. Download with git:
```bash
git lfs install
git clone git@hf.co:datasets/chengyenhsieh/TAO-Amodal
```
- Download with [`python`](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-files-from-the-hub):
```python
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
snapshot_download(repo_id="chengyenhsieh/TAO-Amodal")
```
2. Unzip all videos:
Modify `dataset_root` in [unzip_video.py](./unzip_video.py) and run:
```bash
python unzip_video.py
```
## πŸ“š Dataset Structure
The dataset should be structured like this:
```bash
TAO-Amodal
β”œβ”€β”€ frames
β”‚ └── train
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ ArgoVerse
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ BDD
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ Charades
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ HACS
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ LaSOT
β”‚ └── YFCC100M
β”œβ”€β”€ amodal_annotations
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ train/validation/test.json
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ train_lvis_v1.json
β”‚ └── validation_lvis_v1.json
β”œβ”€β”€ example_output
β”‚ └── prediction.json
β”œβ”€β”€ BURST_annotations
β”‚ β”œβ”€β”€ train
β”‚ └── train_visibility.json
β”‚ ...
```
## πŸ“š File Descriptions
| File Name | Description |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| train/validation/test.json | Formal annotation files. We use these annotations for visualization. Categories include those in [lvis](https://www.lvisdataset.org/) v0.5 and freeform categories. |
| train_lvis_v1.json | We use this file to train our [amodal-expander](https://tao-amodal.github.io/index.html#Amodal-Expander), treating each image frame as an independent sequence. Categories are aligned with those in lvis v1.0. |
| validation_lvis_v1.json | We use this file to evaluate our [amodal-expander](https://tao-amodal.github.io/index.html#Amodal-Expander). Categories are aligned with those in lvis v1.0. |
| prediction.json | Example output json from amodal-expander. Tracker predictions should be structured like this file to be evaluated with our [evaluation toolkit](https://github.com/WesleyHsieh0806/TAO-Amodal?tab=readme-ov-file#bar_chart-evaluation). |
| BURST_annotations/XXX.json | Modal mask annotations from [BURST dataset](https://github.com/Ali2500/BURST-benchmark) with our heuristic visibility attributes. We provide these files for the convenience of visualization |
### Annotation and Prediction Format
Our annotations are structured similarly as [TAO](https://github.com/TAO-Dataset/tao/blob/master/tao/toolkit/tao/tao.py#L4) with some modifications.
Annotations:
```bash
Annotation file format:
{
"info" : info,
"images" : [image],
"videos": [video],
"tracks": [track],
"annotations" : [annotation],
"categories": [category],
"licenses" : [license],
}
annotation: {
"id": int,
"image_id": int,
"track_id": int,
"bbox": [x,y,width,height],
"area": float,
# Redundant field for compatibility with COCO scripts
"category_id": int,
"video_id": int,
# Other important attributes for evaluation on TAO-Amodal
"amodal_bbox": [x,y,width,height],
"amodal_is_uncertain": bool,
"visibility": float, (0.~1.0)
}
image, info, video, track, category, licenses, : Same as TAO
```
Predictions should be structured as:
```bash
[{
"image_id" : int,
"category_id" : int,
"bbox" : [x,y,width,height],
"score" : float,
"track_id": int,
"video_id": int
}]
```
