Ground truth

Reference scope, method, rate, coverage, and provenance.

Ground-truth references for PRED18
Scope Method Reference system Count Rate Coverage Reference provenance

Measured using equipment independent of the platform’s normal onboard sensor pipeline.
Derived
Computed primarily from the dataset’s own recorded sensors.
Hybrid
Combines independent reference equipment with onboard measurements.

Accuracy notes
Manual labels become ambiguous at quantized position boundaries; no direct metric distance ground truth is supplied for the distance evaluation.
Reference notes
Prey image position and bounding-box size were manually labelled in jAER. These are image-space object labels, not a platform trajectory or Vicon pose reference.

Known or intentional limitations

Reported constraints and characteristics to check before using the dataset.

Manual position and size quantization causes ambiguity near category boundaries.

Approximately half the examples are non-visible prey; small distant prey is difficult to classify.

Walking people can dominate event histograms even when the robots remain still.

Notes
One DAVIS provides DVS events and auxiliary APS frames. APS recording is stated as 15 fps, while results report approximately 17 Hz mean (Figure 15: 16.76 Hz). Original APS dimensions are 240x180. CNN inputs use 36x36, 54x54 or 72x72 images and 5000-event histograms, including raw and background-filtered variants. Histogram production spans 0.02–1580 Hz; the 500 Hz cap is runtime processing throughput, not event sampling.
