Abstract

Teaser image


Unlike humans, who can effortlessly estimate the entirety of objects even when partially occluded, modern computer vision algorithms still find this aspect extremely challenging. Leveraging this amodal perception for autonomous driving remains largely untapped due to the lack of suitable datasets. The curation of these datasets is primarily hindered by significant annotation costs and mitigating annotator subjectivity in accurately labeling occluded regions. To address these limitations, we introduce AmodalSynthDrive, a synthetic multi-task multi-modal amodal perception dataset. The dataset provides multi-view camera images, 3D bounding boxes, LiDAR data, and odometry for 150 driving sequences with over 1M object annotations in diverse traffic, weather, and lighting conditions. AmodalSynthDrive supports multiple amodal scene understanding tasks including the introduced amodal depth estimation for enhanced spatial understanding. We evaluate several baselines for each of these tasks to illustrate the challenges and set up public benchmarking servers. The dataset is available here.

Dataset Download

The dataset is organized into three splits: training, validation, and testing. For each set, you can download the specific data type individually.
  1. To do so, simply click on the respective button corresponding to the data type of a particular set.

  2. This action will initiate the download of a bash script.

  3. Once the script is downloaded, provide it with execution permissions by running the following command in your terminal:
    chmod +x x_bash_script.sh

  4. Now, you can execute the bash script using the command:
    ./x_bash_script.sh path_to_folder_where_amodalSynthDrive_root_folder_will_be_created
    This will create the AmodalSynthDrive root folder in the specified path.

Optional: Scripts for Visualization
The provided scripts facilitate the conversion of raw ground truths into colored representations for visualization purposes.
