Introduction: The FVessel benchmark dataset is used to evaluate the reliability of AIS and video data fusion algorithms, which mainly contains 26 videos and the corresponding AIS data captured by the HIKVISION DS-2DC4423IW-D dome camera and Saiyang AIS9000-08 Class-B AIS receiver on the Wuhan Segment of the Yangtze River. To protect privacy, the MMSI for each vessel has been replaced with a random number in our dataset. As shown in Figure 1, these videos were captured under many locations (e.g., bridge region and riverside) and various weather conditions (e.g., sunny, cloudy, and low-light).

Details

The FVessel dataset consists of two parts:

• 01_Video+AIS
• 02_Image+xml

01_Video+AIS

01_Video+AIS contains many videos and the corresponding AIS data to evaluate the performance of the data fusion algorithm. Each video data contains the following files:

AIS Data Coordinate Transformation

• Copy the data into the 01_demo_transform/data of this project.

• Run 01_demo_transformc/main.py.

Example for Coordinate Transformation

Example: [mipc]

Note that the AIS data in the example has been processed differently from the AIS data in the FVessel dataset.

(The blue line is the projection of the AIS data-based trajectory in the image, and the red letter is the corresponding mmsi number.)

Evaluation

• Install motmetrics.

• Copy the two files from the 02_demo_metric/motmetrics of this project to the installed motmetrics folder.

• Save the test files to the 02_demo_metric/sample folder.

• Choose the type of evaluation detection, tracking, and fusion.

• Run 02_demo_metric/eval.py.
