## 🎯 Task Categories

This dataset covers various camera motion tasks.

## 📝 Dataset Format

The dataset consists of MP4 video files with frames and optical flows stored in Parquet format.

Each record contains:
- `video_name`: Original video filename
- `video_path`: Relative path to video file (e.g., `videos/video.mp4`)
- `frames`: Sequence of extracted video frames
- `optical_flows`: Sequence of optical flow visualizations
- `question`: Binary question about camera motion
- `label`: Answer ("Yes" or "No")

### Format: WebDataset

This split uses WebDataset format for efficient streaming:
- **Tar Shards**: 16 tar files
- **Path**: `webdataset/train/train-*.tar`
- **Structure**: Each tar contains frames, optical flows, and metadata in WebDataset format
- **Usage**: Load with `webdataset` library for streaming access

```python
import webdataset as wds

dataset = wds.WebDataset("path/to/train-*.tar").decode("rgb")
for sample in dataset:
    video_name = sample["video_name"]
    frames = [sample[f"frame_{i:04d}.png"] for i in range(sample["num_frames"])]
    flows = [sample[f"flow_{i:04d}.png"] for i in range(sample["num_flows"])]
    # ...process sample...
```
