Citation

This is an implementation of the large-scale ODI dataset which contains the head fixations of 30 subjects viewing 600 ODIs. You can use this dataset for human visual attention behaviour analysis on ODIs, attention/saliency map prediction modeling, and etc.

Dataset

The dataset has been uploaded to Beihang Yunpan (LINK:https://bhpan.buaa.edu.cn/link/AA25AF73AE70B143ACABB96F6274EB63EA). You should ask for the PASSWORD to download it by sending emails to [email protected]. The emial should contain your university/company, your grade (undergraduate, master or doctor) and the purpose of pursuing this dataset. The act of spreading our dataset freely on the Internet is forbidden.

1. IMG_600

   The original format of ERP-projection, high-quality, high-resolution omnidirectional images. The number of all ODIs is 600, containing 4 categories of human, cityscapes, indoor and nature.

   Resolution: 8000*4000

2. AOI_salmap&fixation

   (1) AOI_salmap:

   The ground-truth saliency maps of the corresponding 600 ODIs with resized size.

   The saliency map is generated from the collected human head fixations, and the

   details of collecting the AOI dataset and generating saliency maps can be found

   in our paper. (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9328187)

   Resolution: 1333*667

   (2) Fixation:

   For each ODI in AOI dataset, we offer the original head fixations of 30 subjects

   in ODI_name.txt, which are collected from the experiment introduced in paper.

   The format of ODI_name.txt is as follows:

   =================================================================================================================================================

   0 1 2 3 4

   Subject_ID Fixation_number Time stamp Head_fixation_longitude Head_fixation_latitude

   1-30 1-* unit: ms -180--180 (degree) [Left to Right] -90--90 (degree) [Bottom to Top]
