+ ![camera map collage](analysis/APT-36K-Camera.png)
22
+
23
+ Per-image camera parameter annotations for the **APT-36K** dataset
24
+ (a large-scale animal pose estimation & tracking benchmark; 35,860 frames from 2,400 video clips across 30 species), captioned by the [**Puffin-World**](https://github.com/KangLiao929/Puffin) model. More captioned datasets are provided in our [**Puffin-16M**](https://kangliao929.github.io/projects/puffin-16m/) website.
25
+
26
+ The collage above visualizes the camera maps on sample images — each
27
+ pair shows the **up field** (green arrows: the projected gravity-up direction)
28
+ and the **latitude field** (colored contours: angle above/below the horizon).
29
+
30
+ ## Format
31
+
32
+ One `.tar` per shard (`apt36k_0000.tar` … ), each containing one `.json` per
33
+ image whose name matches the source image stem (`<species>_<video>_frameN`).
34
+
35
+ Each JSON holds the predicted monocular camera parameters:
36
+
37
+ | Field | Meaning | Unit |
38
+ |-------|---------|------|
39
+ | `roll` | camera roll | radians |
40
+ | `pitch` | camera pitch | radians |
41
+ | `vfov` | vertical field-of-view | radians |
42
+ | `k1` | radial distortion coefficient | – |
43
+ | `parse_ok` | whether the model output parsed within valid ranges | bool |
44
+
45
+ Example:
46
+
47
+ ```json
48
+ {"roll": 0.0123, "pitch": -0.0871, "vfov": 0.4200, "k1": 0.0000, "parse_ok": true}
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+ ## Camera Parameter Distributions
52
+
53
+ Histograms of the predicted roll / pitch / vertical-FoV over the whole dataset
54
+ (proportion of valid samples per 10° bin; `parse_ok=False` excluded).
55
+
56
+ ![apt36k camera stats](analysis/apt36k_camera_stats.png)
57
+
58
+ | split | roll μ / med / σ | pitch μ / med / σ | FoV μ / med / σ |
59
+ |-------|------------------|-------------------|-----------------|
60
+ | all (35,661) | 0.2° / 0.0° / 3.5° | −4.9° / −3.7° / 11.3° | 24.1° / 20.3° / 6.0° |
61
+
62
+ - **Roll** is tightly peaked at 0° (σ ≈ 3.5°; footage shot level).
63
+ - **Pitch** is centered slightly negative (a mild downward-looking tendency).
64
+ - **FoV** is narrow (median ≈ 20°, the tightest of our captioned sets) —
65
+ consistent with telephoto wildlife videography that frames distant animals.
66
+
67
+ If you'd like a dataset with a more diverse and uniform distribution of camera parameters, please refer to our [Puffin-4M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/KangLiao/Puffin-4M) and [Puffin-16M](https://huggingface.co/datasets/KangLiao/Puffin-16M) datasets.
68
+
69
+ ### Dataset Download
70
+ You can download the entire dataset using the following command:
71
+ ```bash
72
+ hf download KangLiao/APT-36K-Camera --repo-type dataset
73
+ ```
74
+
75
+ ### Caption Pipeline
76
+ Beyond this captioned dataset, we also release **a complete captioning pipeline** for annotating camera parameters for arbitrary datasets, analyzing camera parameter distributions, and visualizing the corresponding camera maps. The pipeline is available in our [GitHub repository](https://github.com/KangLiao929/Puffin).
