IRVAL
IRVAL is a high-resolution infrared video dataset for infrared video processing and spatial-temporal video super-resolution research.
Dataset Summary
This repository currently provides 8 infrared videos in .avi format.
According to our associated paper, IRVAL is a high-resolution infrared dataset comprising 108,512 video frames at a spatial resolution of 512×512. The data are collected using vanadium oxide (VOx) uncooled focal plane array detectors operating in the long-wave infrared (LWIR) band. The videos are captured from both vehicle-mounted and fixed surveillance platforms, covering real-world scenarios such as urban streets, vehicles, pedestrians, and roadside buildings.
