Maritime_Visual_Tracking_Dataset_MVTD

MVTD: Maritime Visual Tracking Dataset Overview MVTD (Maritime Visual Tracking Dataset)** is a large-scale benchmark dataset designed specifically for **single-object visual tracking (VOT) in maritime environments**. It addresses challenges unique to maritime scenes: such as water reflections, low-contrast objects, dynamic backgrounds, scale variation, and severe illumination changes—which are not adequately covered by generic tracking datasets. The dataset contains **182 annotated video sequences** with approximately **150,000 frames**, spanning **four maritime object categories**: Boat Ship Sailboat Unmanned Surface Vehicle (USV) MVTD is suitable for **training, fine-tuning, and benchmarking** visual object tracking algorithms under realistic maritime conditions. Dataset Statistics **Total sequences:** 182 **Total annotated frames:** 150,058 **Frame rate:** 30 FPS and 60 FPS **Resolution range:** Min: 1024 × 1024 Max: 1920 × 1440 **Average sequence length:** ~824 frames **Sequence length range:** 82 – 4747 frames **Object categories:** 4 Dataset Structure The dataset follows the **GOT-10k single-object tracking format**, enabling easy integration with existing tracking pipelines.
