  QuadTrack is a dataset designed for multi-object tracking (MOT) research, with a focus on panoramic and long-span scenarios. It provides challenging tracking sequences that include drastic appearance variations, prolonged occlusions, and wide field-of-view distortions, enabling the development and evaluation of robust MOT algorithms.

  ## Dataset Creation
60
 
61
  ### Curation Rationale
62
 
63
- <!-- Motivation for the creation of this dataset. -->
64
-
65
  QuadTrack was created to address the limitations of existing multi-object tracking (MOT) datasets, which often focus on narrow field-of-view scenarios and short-term associations. In contrast, panoramic and long-span tracking poses unique challenges such as:
66
 
67
  + Prolonged occlusions leading to identity switches.
68
-
69
  + Wide field-of-view distortions caused by panoramic cameras.
70
-
71
  + Dramatic appearance variations across long sequences.
72
 
73
  The dataset aims to provide a benchmark for developing algorithms that achieve long-term identity stability and robust re-identification in real-world panoramic environments.
74
 
75
  ### Source Data
76
 
77
- <!-- This section describes the source data (e.g. news text and headlines, social media posts, translated sentences, ...). -->
78
-
79
  #### Data Collection and Processing
80
 
81
- <!-- This section describes the data collection and processing process such as data selection criteria, filtering and normalization methods, tools and libraries used, etc. -->
82
-
83
- Collection: The video sequences were captured using panoramic and wide-angle cameras in complex real-world environments (e.g., urban traffic, crowded public areas).
84
-
85
- + Annotation:
86
-
87
- + Bounding boxes and unique object IDs were assigned frame-by-frame.
88
 
89
- + Annotations follow the standard MOTChallenge format for compatibility.
90
-
91
- + Processing:
92
-
93
- + Frames were extracted at fixed intervals to balance temporal resolution and storage.
94
-
95
- + Quality checks ensured consistency in ID assignment across long occlusions.
96
-
97
- + Tools used: https://www.cvat.ai/
98
  #### Who are the source data producers?
99
 
100
- <!-- This section describes the people or systems who originally created the data. It should also include self-reported demographic or identity information for the source data creators if this information is available. -->
101
-
102
- The source videos were collected and annotated by the QuadTrack research team.
103
-
104
- + Producers: Internal annotation team trained for MOT labeling tasks.
105
-
106
- + Demographics: Not applicable, as the dataset focuses on object trajectories rather than personal or sensitive identity information.
107
-
108
- + Note: No personally identifiable information (PII) is included. The dataset is curated strictly for research purposes.

  ## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
112
 
113
- <!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
114
-
115
- While QuadTrack provides challenging panoramic multi-object tracking scenarios, several limitations and risks should be noted:
116
-
117
- + Domain bias: The dataset primarily consists of panoramic and wide field-of-view sequences. Models trained on QuadTrack may not generalize well to conventional narrow-angle tracking datasets.
118
-
119
- + Scene diversity: Although collected across different environments, the dataset may not cover all possible real-world scenarios (e.g., extreme weather, night-time, or thermal imagery).
120
-
121
- + Annotation errors: Despite quality control, occasional inaccuracies in bounding boxes or identity switches may exist, especially under heavy occlusion.
122
-
123
- + Ethical risks: As a vision dataset, improper use in surveillance or privacy-intrusive applications could raise ethical concerns.
124
-
125
- ### Recommendations
126
-
127
- <!-- This section is meant to convey recommendations with respect to the bias, risk, and technical limitations. -->
128
 
129
- Users should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the dataset. More information needed for further recommendations.
