第六版的AI城市挑战赛特别关注了两个领域的问题，在计算机视觉和人工智能的交集中具有巨大的解锁潜力：智能交通系统（ITS），以及实体和砂浆零售业务。 2022年AI City Challenge的四个挑战赛收到了来自27个国家 /地区254个团队的参与请求。轨道1地址的城市规模多目标多摄像机（MTMC）车辆跟踪。轨道2地址为基于天然语言的车辆轨道检索。 Track 3是一条全新的自然主义驾驶分析的轨道，该轨道是由安装在车辆内部的几台相机捕获的，该摄像头专注于驾驶员安全，而任务是对驾驶员的操作进行分类。 Track 4是另一个旨在仅使用单个视图摄像头实现零售商店自动结帐的新轨道。我们发布了两个基于不同方法的领导董事会成员提交，包括比赛的公共负责人委员会，不允许使用外部数据，以及用于所有提交结果的总管委员会。参与团队的最高表现建立了强大的基线，甚至超过了拟议的挑战赛中的最先进。

由于其前所未有的优势，在规模，移动，部署和隐蔽观察能力方面，空中平台和成像传感器的快速出现是实现新的空中监测形式。本文从计算机视觉和模式识别的角度来看，全面概述了以人为本的空中监控任务。它旨在为读者提供使用无人机，无人机和其他空中平台的空中监测任务当前状态的深入系统审查和技术分析。感兴趣的主要对象是人类，其中要检测单个或多个受试者，识别，跟踪，重新识别并进行其行为。更具体地，对于这四项任务中的每一个，我们首先讨论与基于地面的设置相比在空中环境中执行这些任务的独特挑战。然后，我们审查和分析公共可用于每项任务的航空数据集，并深入了解航空文学中的方法，并调查他们目前如何应对鸟瞰挑战。我们在讨论缺失差距和开放研究问题的讨论中得出结论，告知未来的研究途径。

我们介绍了Caltech Fish计数数据集（CFC），这是一个用于检测，跟踪和计数声纳视频中鱼类的大型数据集。我们将声纳视频识别为可以推进低信噪比计算机视觉应用程序并解决多对象跟踪（MOT）和计数中的域概括的丰富数据来源。与现有的MOT和计数数据集相比，这些数据集主要仅限于城市中的人和车辆的视频，CFC来自自然世界领域，在该域​​中，目标不容易解析，并且无法轻易利用外观功能来进行目标重新识别。 CFC允许​​研究人员训练MOT和计数算法并评估看不见的测试位置的概括性能。我们执行广泛的基线实验，并确定在MOT和计数中推进概括的最新技术的关键挑战和机会。

智能城市应用程序（例如智能交通路由或事故预防）依赖计算机视觉方法来确切的车辆定位和跟踪。由于精确标记的数据缺乏，从多个摄像机中检测和跟踪3D的车辆被证明是探索挑战的。我们提出了一个庞大的合成数据集，用于多个重叠和非重叠摄像头视图中的多个车辆跟踪和分割。与现有的数据集不同，该数据集仅为2D边界框提供跟踪地面真实，我们的数据集还包含适用于相机和世界坐标中的3D边界框的完美标签，深度估计以及实例，语义和泛型细分。该数据集由17个小时的标记视频材料组成，从64个不同的一天，雨，黎明和夜幕播放的340张摄像机录制，使其成为迄今为止多目标多型多相机跟踪的最广泛数据集。我们提供用于检测，车辆重新识别以及单摄像机跟踪的基准。代码和数据公开可用。

多媒体异常数据集在自动监视中发挥着至关重要的作用。它们具有广泛的应用程序，从异常对象/情况检测到检测危及生命事件的检测。该字段正在接收大量的1.5多年的巨大研究兴趣，因此，已经创建了越来越多地专用于异常动作和对象检测的数据集。点击这些公共异常数据集使研究人员能够生成和比较具有相同输入数据的各种异常检测框架。本文介绍了各种视频，音频以及基于异常检测的应用的综合调查。该调查旨在解决基于异常检测的多媒体公共数据集缺乏全面的比较和分析。此外，它可以帮助研究人员选择最佳可用数据集，用于标记框架。此外，我们讨论了现有数据集和未来方向洞察中开发多峰异常检测数据集的差距。

由于卷积神经网络（CNN）在过去的十年中检测成功，多对象跟踪（MOT）通过检测方法的使用来控制。随着数据集和基础标记网站的发布，研究方向已转向在跟踪时在包括重新识别对象的通用场景（包括重新识别（REID））上的最佳准确性。在这项研究中，我们通过提供专用的行人数据集并专注于对性能良好的多对象跟踪器的深入分析来缩小监视的范围）现实世界应用的技术。为此，我们介绍SOMPT22数据集；一套新的，用于多人跟踪的新套装，带有带注释的简短视频，该视频从位于杆子上的静态摄像头捕获，高度为6-8米，用于城市监视。与公共MOT数据集相比，这提供了室外监视的MOT的更为集中和具体的基准。我们分析了该新数据集上检测和REID网络的使用方式，分析了将MOT跟踪器分类为单发和两阶段。我们新数据集的实验结果表明，SOTA远非高效率，而单一跟踪器是统一快速执行和准确性的良好候选者，并具有竞争性的性能。该数据集将在以下网址提供：sompt22.github.io

Video, as a key driver in the global explosion of digital information, can create tremendous benefits for human society. Governments and enterprises are deploying innumerable cameras for a variety of applications, e.g., law enforcement, emergency management, traffic control, and security surveillance, all facilitated by video analytics (VA). This trend is spurred by the rapid advancement of deep learning (DL), which enables more precise models for object classification, detection, and tracking. Meanwhile, with the proliferation of Internet-connected devices, massive amounts of data are generated daily, overwhelming the cloud. Edge computing, an emerging paradigm that moves workloads and services from the network core to the network edge, has been widely recognized as a promising solution. The resulting new intersection, edge video analytics (EVA), begins to attract widespread attention. Nevertheless, only a few loosely-related surveys exist on this topic. A dedicated venue for collecting and summarizing the latest advances of EVA is highly desired by the community. Besides, the basic concepts of EVA (e.g., definition, architectures, etc.) are ambiguous and neglected by these surveys due to the rapid development of this domain. A thorough clarification is needed to facilitate a consensus on these concepts. To fill in these gaps, we conduct a comprehensive survey of the recent efforts on EVA. In this paper, we first review the fundamentals of edge computing, followed by an overview of VA. The EVA system and its enabling techniques are discussed next. In addition, we introduce prevalent frameworks and datasets to aid future researchers in the development of EVA systems. Finally, we discuss existing challenges and foresee future research directions. We believe this survey will help readers comprehend the relationship between VA and edge computing, and spark new ideas on EVA.

Context-aware decision support in the operating room can foster surgical safety and efficiency by leveraging real-time feedback from surgical workflow analysis. Most existing works recognize surgical activities at a coarse-grained level, such as phases, steps or events, leaving out fine-grained interaction details about the surgical activity; yet those are needed for more helpful AI assistance in the operating room. Recognizing surgical actions as triplets of <instrument, verb, target> combination delivers comprehensive details about the activities taking place in surgical videos. This paper presents CholecTriplet2021: an endoscopic vision challenge organized at MICCAI 2021 for the recognition of surgical action triplets in laparoscopic videos. The challenge granted private access to the large-scale CholecT50 dataset, which is annotated with action triplet information. In this paper, we present the challenge setup and assessment of the state-of-the-art deep learning methods proposed by the participants during the challenge. A total of 4 baseline methods from the challenge organizers and 19 new deep learning algorithms by competing teams are presented to recognize surgical action triplets directly from surgical videos, achieving mean average precision (mAP) ranging from 4.2% to 38.1%. This study also analyzes the significance of the results obtained by the presented approaches, performs a thorough methodological comparison between them, in-depth result analysis, and proposes a novel ensemble method for enhanced recognition. Our analysis shows that surgical workflow analysis is not yet solved, and also highlights interesting directions for future research on fine-grained surgical activity recognition which is of utmost importance for the development of AI in surgery.

This paper presents a new large scale multi-person tracking dataset -- \texttt{PersonPath22}, which is over an order of magnitude larger than currently available high quality multi-object tracking datasets such as MOT17, HiEve, and MOT20 datasets. The lack of large scale training and test data for this task has limited the community's ability to understand the performance of their tracking systems on a wide range of scenarios and conditions such as variations in person density, actions being performed, weather, and time of day. \texttt{PersonPath22} dataset was specifically sourced to provide a wide variety of these conditions and our annotations include rich meta-data such that the performance of a tracker can be evaluated along these different dimensions. The lack of training data has also limited the ability to perform end-to-end training of tracking systems. As such, the highest performing tracking systems all rely on strong detectors trained on external image datasets. We hope that the release of this dataset will enable new lines of research that take advantage of large scale video based training data.

Computer vision applications in intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and autonomous driving (AD) have gravitated towards deep neural network architectures in recent years. While performance seems to be improving on benchmark datasets, many real-world challenges are yet to be adequately considered in research. This paper conducted an extensive literature review on the applications of computer vision in ITS and AD, and discusses challenges related to data, models, and complex urban environments. The data challenges are associated with the collection and labeling of training data and its relevance to real world conditions, bias inherent in datasets, the high volume of data needed to be processed, and privacy concerns. Deep learning (DL) models are commonly too complex for real-time processing on embedded hardware, lack explainability and generalizability, and are hard to test in real-world settings. Complex urban traffic environments have irregular lighting and occlusions, and surveillance cameras can be mounted at a variety of angles, gather dirt, shake in the wind, while the traffic conditions are highly heterogeneous, with violation of rules and complex interactions in crowded scenarios. Some representative applications that suffer from these problems are traffic flow estimation, congestion detection, autonomous driving perception, vehicle interaction, and edge computing for practical deployment. The possible ways of dealing with the challenges are also explored while prioritizing practical deployment.

Datasets drive vision progress, yet existing driving datasets are impoverished in terms of visual content and supported tasks to study multitask learning for autonomous driving. Researchers are usually constrained to study a small set of problems on one dataset, while real-world computer vision applications require performing tasks of various complexities. We construct BDD100K 1 , the largest driving video dataset with 100K videos and 10 tasks to evaluate the exciting progress of image recognition algorithms on autonomous driving. The dataset possesses geographic, environmental, and weather diversity, which is useful for training models that are less likely to be surprised by new conditions. Based on this diverse dataset, we build a benchmark for heterogeneous multitask learning and study how to solve the tasks together. Our experiments show that special training strategies are needed for existing models to perform such heterogeneous tasks. BDD100K opens the door for future studies in this important venue.

近年来，多个对象跟踪引起了研究人员的极大兴趣，它已成为计算机视觉中的趋势问题之一，尤其是随着自动驾驶的最新发展。 MOT是针对不同问题的关键视觉任务之一，例如拥挤的场景中的闭塞，相似的外观，小物体检测难度，ID切换等，以应对这些挑战，因为研究人员试图利用变压器的注意力机制，与田径的相互关系，与田径的相互关系，图形卷积神经网络，与暹罗网络不同帧中对象的外观相似性，他们还尝试了基于IOU匹配的CNN网络，使用LSTM的运动预测。为了将这些零散的技术在雨伞下采用，我们研究了过去三年发表的一百多篇论文，并试图提取近代研究人员更关注的技术来解决MOT的问题。我们已经征集了许多应用，可能性以及MOT如何与现实生活有关。我们的评论试图展示研究人员使用过时的技术的不同观点，并为潜在的研究人员提供了一些未来的方向。此外，我们在这篇评论中包括了流行的基准数据集和指标。

基于自然语言（NL）的车辆检索旨在搜索给定文本描述的特定车辆。不同于基于图像的车辆检索，基于NL的车辆检索不仅需要考虑车辆外观，还需要考虑周围环境和时间关系。在本文中，我们提出了一个具有空间关系建模（SSM）方法的对称网络，用于基于NL的车辆检索。具体而言，我们设计了一个对称网络，以学习文本描述和车辆图像之间的统一跨模式表示，其中保留了车辆外观细节和车辆轨迹全球信息。此外，为了更好地利用位置信息，我们提出了一种空间关系建模方法，以考虑周围环境和相互关系的考虑。定性和定量实验验证了所提出的方法的有效性。我们在第六届AI城市挑战赛的测试集上获得了43.92％的MRR准确性，该挑战是基于自然语言的车辆检索轨道，在公共排行榜上所有有​​效的提交中排名第一。该代码可从https://github.com/hbchen121/aicity2022_track2_ssm获得。

The PASCAL Visual Object Classes (VOC) challenge is a benchmark in visual object category recognition and detection, providing the vision and machine learning communities with a standard dataset of images and annotation, and standard evaluation procedures. Organised annually from 2005 to present, the challenge and its associated dataset has become accepted as the benchmark for object detection.This paper describes the dataset and evaluation procedure. We review the state-of-the-art in evaluated methods for both classification and detection, analyse whether the methods are statistically different, what they are learning from the images (e.g. the object or its context), and what the methods find easy or confuse. The paper concludes with lessons learnt in the three year history of the challenge, and proposes directions for future improvement and extension.

地理定位的概念是指确定地球上的某些“实体”的位置的过程，通常使用全球定位系统（GPS）坐标。感兴趣的实体可以是图像，图像序列，视频，卫星图像，甚至图像中可见的物体。由于GPS标记媒体的大规模数据集由于智能手机和互联网而迅速变得可用，而深入学习已经上升以提高机器学习模型的性能能力，因此由于其显着影响而出现了视觉和对象地理定位的领域广泛的应用，如增强现实，机器人，自驾驶车辆，道路维护和3D重建。本文提供了对涉及图像的地理定位的全面调查，其涉及从捕获图像（图像地理定位）或图像内的地理定位对象（对象地理定位）的地理定位的综合调查。我们将提供深入的研究，包括流行算法的摘要，对所提出的数据集的描述以及性能结果的分析来说明每个字段的当前状态。

In this paper, we present the Multi-view Extended Videos with Identities (MEVID) dataset for large-scale, video person re-identification (ReID) in the wild. To our knowledge, MEVID represents the most-varied video person ReID dataset, spanning an extensive indoor and outdoor environment across nine unique dates in a 73-day window, various camera viewpoints, and entity clothing changes. Specifically, we label the identities of 158 unique people wearing 598 outfits taken from 8, 092 tracklets, average length of about 590 frames, seen in 33 camera views from the very large-scale MEVA person activities dataset. While other datasets have more unique identities, MEVID emphasizes a richer set of information about each individual, such as: 4 outfits/identity vs. 2 outfits/identity in CCVID, 33 viewpoints across 17 locations vs. 6 in 5 simulated locations for MTA, and 10 million frames vs. 3 million for LS-VID. Being based on the MEVA video dataset, we also inherit data that is intentionally demographically balanced to the continental United States. To accelerate the annotation process, we developed a semi-automatic annotation framework and GUI that combines state-of-the-art real-time models for object detection, pose estimation, person ReID, and multi-object tracking. We evaluate several state-of-the-art methods on MEVID challenge problems and comprehensively quantify their robustness in terms of changes of outfit, scale, and background location. Our quantitative analysis on the realistic, unique aspects of MEVID shows that there are significant remaining challenges in video person ReID and indicates important directions for future research.

对象检测是自动驾驶中的一个全面研究的问题。但是，在鱼眼相机的情况下，它的探索相对较少。强烈的径向失真破坏了卷积神经网络的翻译不变性电感偏置。因此，我们提出了自动驾驶的木观鱼眼检测挑战，这是CVPR 2022年全向计算机视觉（OMNICV）的一部分。这是针对鱼眼相机对象检测的首批比赛之一。我们鼓励参与者设计在没有纠正的情况下对鱼眼图像的本地工作的模型。我们使用Codalab根据公开可用的Fisheye数据集主持竞争。在本文中，我们提供了有关竞争的详细分析，该分析吸引了120个全球团队的参与和1492份提交的参与。我们简要讨论获胜方法的细节，并分析其定性和定量结果。

多目标跟踪（MOT）的典型管道是使用探测器进行对象本地化，并在重新识别（RE-ID）之后进行对象关联。该管道通过对象检测和重新ID的最近进展部分而部分地激励，并且部分地通过现有的跟踪数据集中的偏差激励，其中大多数物体倾向于具有区分外观和RE-ID模型足以建立关联。为了响应这种偏见，我们希望重新强调多目标跟踪的方法也应该在对象外观不充分辨别时起作用。为此，我们提出了一个大型数据集，用于多人跟踪，人类具有相似的外观，多样化的运动和极端关节。由于数据集包含主要组跳舞视频，我们将其命名为“DanceTrack”。我们预计DanceTrack可以提供更好的平台，以开发更多的MOT算法，这些算法依赖于视觉识别并更依赖于运动分析。在我们的数据集上，我们在数据集上基准测试了几个最先进的追踪器，并在与现有基准测试中遵守DanceTrack的显着性能下降。 DataSet，项目代码和竞争服务器播放：\ url {https://github.com/danceTrack}。

We introduce Argoverse 2 (AV2) - a collection of three datasets for perception and forecasting research in the self-driving domain. The annotated Sensor Dataset contains 1,000 sequences of multimodal data, encompassing high-resolution imagery from seven ring cameras, and two stereo cameras in addition to lidar point clouds, and 6-DOF map-aligned pose. Sequences contain 3D cuboid annotations for 26 object categories, all of which are sufficiently-sampled to support training and evaluation of 3D perception models. The Lidar Dataset contains 20,000 sequences of unlabeled lidar point clouds and map-aligned pose. This dataset is the largest ever collection of lidar sensor data and supports self-supervised learning and the emerging task of point cloud forecasting. Finally, the Motion Forecasting Dataset contains 250,000 scenarios mined for interesting and challenging interactions between the autonomous vehicle and other actors in each local scene. Models are tasked with the prediction of future motion for "scored actors" in each scenario and are provided with track histories that capture object location, heading, velocity, and category. In all three datasets, each scenario contains its own HD Map with 3D lane and crosswalk geometry - sourced from data captured in six distinct cities. We believe these datasets will support new and existing machine learning research problems in ways that existing datasets do not. All datasets are released under the CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license.
