Inference Overview

Sample image frames from the CART (CARLA Town 10) dataset. Town 10 is the HD map in CARLA, replicating realistic scenarios.

Data Description

  • Photo-realistic dataset out of CARLA's Town 10
  • Total of 4500 images (Train ~ 4300, Val ~ 200) with 1280×720 pixels resolution.
  • Classes include: Person, Vehicle, Motorbike, Traffic Light, Stop Sign.
  • Collected in CARLA using autopilot driving in Town 10 (moving camera scenario).
  • Images are collected under diverse lighting (noon, sunset, night) and weather conditions (rain, clear, fog)
  • The traffic level is moderate with around 40 vehicles and 70 pedestrians in the map.
  • The labels are available in YOLO format and annotations are performed using the CVAT tool: https://www.cvat.ai/

This dataset has been used in original paper to train YOLOv5 model as well as the adversarial patch used in the experiments
