Molmo2-VideoTrackEval

Molmo2-VideoTrackEval is an evaluation benchmark for video point tracking, containing human-annotated ground truth expressions. It includes segmentation masks for evaluating whether predicted points fall within the correct object regions. Currently, there are five categories for evaluation:

animal
dance
sports
person
misc

This benchmark is part of the Molmo2 dataset collection and is used to evaluate the Molmo2 family of models on video object tracking via point trajectories.

Usage

from datasets import load_dataset

# Load entire evaluation dataset
ds = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", split="test")

# Load a specific benchmark subset by config name
animal = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", "animal", split="test")
dance = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", "dance", split="test")
sports = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", "sports", split="test")
person = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", "person", split="test")
misc = load_dataset("allenai/Molmo2-VideoTrackEval", "misc", split="test")

Available Configs

Config	Dataset	Description
`default`	All	All evaluation data combined
`animal`	APTv2	Animal tracking benchmark
`dance`	dancetrack	Dancer tracking benchmark
`sports`	sportsmot	Sports player tracking benchmark
`person`	personpath22	Person tracking benchmark
`misc`	sav	Misc Video benchmark

Data Format

Each row contains tracking annotations for one or more objects in a video clip:

Field	Description
`id`	Unique identifier for this annotation
`video`	Video filename
`clip`	trimmed clip id
`video_dataset`	Source dataset name (e.g., 'dancetrack', 'sportsmot')
`video_source`	Video directory path (can be ignored)
`exp`	Text expression describing the tracked object(s)
`obj_id`	List of object IDs per video
`mask_id`	List of mask IDs corresponding to tracked objects starting from '0'
`masks`	List of segmentation masks per object for evaluation. Each entry contains `object_id` and `masks` (used to verify if predicted points fall within the ground truth object region)
`points`	List of point trajectories per object. Each entry contains `object_id` and `points` (list of [x, y] coordinates per frame)
`segments`	List of segment annotations per object. Each entry contains `object_id` and `segments`
`start_frame`	Starting frame index for this clip
`end_frame`	Ending frame index for this clip
`w`	Video width
`h`	Video height
`n_frames`	Number of frames in the clip
`fps`	Frames per second

Important: start_frame and end_frame indicate which portion of the source video to use. You need to trim the video to this range — the annotations correspond to frames within [start_frame, end_frame], not the entire video.

Evaluation with Masks

The masks field contains ground truth segmentation masks that can be used to evaluate tracking predictions. A predicted point is considered correct if it falls within the segmentation mask of the target object for that frame.
