Motion-Text Classifier Dataset
A binary classification dataset for distinguishing between pure motion and text-revealed-through-motion in speckle noise videos.
Dataset Description
This dataset contains 1000 videos (5 seconds each) designed to test motion-based perception:
- Motion-only (500 videos): Pure background noise scrolling horizontally
- Text videos (500 videos): Single words revealed through opposing foreground/background motion
All videos use identical noise parameters to ensure the only distinguishing feature is the presence of foreground content.

Usage
from datasets import load_dataset
# Load dataset
dataset = load_dataset("mukul54/motion-text-classifier")
# Access samples
train_sample = dataset['train'][0]
print(train_sample['label']) # 'motion_only' or 'text_fg_bg'
print(train_sample['text']) # word shown (None for motion_only)
Video Parameters
All videos share identical generation parameters:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Resolution | 960×540 |
| FPS | 60 |
| Duration | 5.0 seconds |
| Noise Density | 0.5 |
| Speckle Size | 1 |
| Speed | 2 |
| Direction | Horizontal |
Labels
- motion_only: Background noise only (no foreground object)
- text_fg_bg: Text revealed through opposite motion of foreground/background using the same noise pattern
Key Features
- Pure motion detection: Text is invisible in static frames
- Controlled experiment: All parameters identical except foreground content
- Temporal encoding: Information only available through motion analysis
Use Cases
- Testing motion perception in vision models
- Temporal feature extraction benchmarks
- Zero-shot video understanding
- Motion-based object detection
