Annotated Pigeon Data, Tracking Benchmark and Model Weights for I-MuPPET Available Now

Annotated Pigeon Data, Tracking Benchmark and Model Weights for I-MuPPET Available Now

We finally provide our pre-trained weights for pigeons to use with I-MuPPET.

https://zenodo.org/record/7037589#.ZHcsFl7P0uU

Also, our pigeon tracking benchmark is available now.

zenodo.org/record/7038391#.ZHcs8V7P0uU

Our results, that you can improve upon, can be found in our paper.

And last but not least, our single pigeon data with RGB images and corresponding keypoint annotations is available now.

zenodo.org/record/7989831#.ZHcwO17P0uU

You can check it out with I-MuPPET.

We hope that this will help to boost the study of collective behaviour.

Am I growing up or am I getting narrow-minded?

An meinem Nachbartisch in der Mensa saßen heute zwei Deutsche und ein Mensch fremder Herkunft. Sie unterhielten sich auf Englisch über die unterschiedlichen Lebensweisen der beiden Länder. Ich habe nicht genau gehört, was sie sich zu erzählen hatten. Dafür waren die Tische wegen der einzuhaltenden Abstände zu groß.

Bei dem Anblick musste ich an die Zeit denken, in der ich viel gereist bin; in Urlauben und für meine Ausbildung an der Universität. Ich musste daran denken, wie ich mit Menschen aus anderen Ländern beim Essen oder bei einem Bier zusammensaß und mich interessiert über die verschiedenen Kulturen austauschte…

Die ganze Geschichte findet ihr hier auf Medium.
