The [Argoverse](https://www.argoverse.org/) dataset is a collection of data designed to support research in autonomous driving tasks, such as 3D tracking, motion forecasting, and stereo depth estimation. Developed by Argo AI, the dataset provides a wide range of high-quality sensor data, including high-resolution images, LiDAR point clouds, and map data.
## Key Features
- Argoverse contains over 290K labeled 3D object tracks and 5 million object instances across 1,263 distinct scenes.
- The dataset includes high-resolution camera images, LiDAR point clouds, and richly annotated HD maps.
- Annotations include 3D bounding boxes for objects, object tracks, and trajectory information.
- Argoverse provides multiple subsets for different tasks, such as 3D tracking, motion forecasting, and stereo depth estimation.
## Dataset Structure
The Argoverse dataset is organized into three main subsets:
1. **Argoverse 3D Tracking**: This subset contains 113 scenes with over 290K labeled 3D object tracks, focusing on 3D object tracking tasks. It includes LiDAR point clouds, camera images, and sensor calibration information.
2. **Argoverse Motion Forecasting**: This subset consists of 324K vehicle trajectories collected from 60 hours of driving data, suitable for motion forecasting tasks.
3. **Argoverse Stereo Depth Estimation**: This subset is designed for stereo depth estimation tasks and includes over 10K stereo image pairs with corresponding LiDAR point clouds for ground truth depth estimation.

The [Global Wheat Head Dataset](http://www.global-wheat.com/) is a collection of images designed to support the development of accurate wheat head detection models for applications in wheat phenotyping and crop management. Wheat heads, also known as spikes, are the grain-bearing parts of the wheat plant. Accurate estimation of wheat head density and size is essential for assessing crop health, maturity, and yield potential. The dataset, created by a collaboration of nine research institutes from seven countries, covers multiple growing regions to ensure models generalize well across different environments.
## Key Features
- The dataset contains over 3,000 training images from Europe (France, UK, Switzerland) and North America (Canada).
- It includes approximately 1,000 test images from Australia, Japan, and China.
- Images are outdoor field images, capturing the natural variability in wheat head appearances.
- Annotations include wheat head bounding boxes to support object detection tasks.
## Dataset Structure
The Global Wheat Head Dataset is organized into two main subsets:
1. **Training Set**: This subset contains over 3,000 images from Europe and North America. The images are labeled with wheat head bounding boxes, providing ground truth for training object detection models.
2. **Test Set**: This subset consists of approximately 1,000 images from Australia, Japan, and China. These images are used for evaluating the performance of trained models on unseen genotypes, environments, and observational conditions.
## Applications
The Global Wheat Head Dataset is widely used for training and evaluating deep learning models in wheat head detection tasks. The dataset's diverse set of images, capturing a wide range of appearances, environments, and conditions, make it a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners in the field of plant phenotyping and crop management.

Auto-annotation is an essential feature that allows you to generate a segmentation dataset using a pre-trained detection model. It enables you to quickly and accurately annotate a large number of images without the need for manual labeling, saving time and effort.
### Generate Segmentation Dataset Using a Detection Model
To auto-annotate your dataset using the Ultralytics framework, you can use the `auto_annotate` function as shown below:
| sam_model | str, optional | Pre-trained SAM segmentation model. Defaults to 'sam_b.pt'. | 'sam_b.pt' |
| device | str, optional | Device to run the models on. Defaults to an empty string (CPU or GPU, if available). | |
| output_dir | str, None, optional | Directory to save the annotated results. Defaults to a 'labels' folder in the same directory as 'data'. | None |
The `auto_annotate` function takes the path to your images, along with optional arguments for specifying the pre-trained detection and [SAM segmentation models](https://docs.ultralytics.com/models/sam), the device to run the models on, and the output directory for saving the annotated results.
By leveraging the power of pre-trained models, auto-annotation can significantly reduce the time and effort required for creating high-quality segmentation datasets. This feature is particularly useful for researchers and developers working with large image collections, as it allows them to focus on model development and evaluation rather than manual annotation.

The Segment Anything Model (SAM) is a groundbreaking image segmentation model that enables promptable segmentation with real-time performance. It forms the foundation for the Segment Anything project, which introduces a new task, model, and dataset for image segmentation. SAM is designed to be promptable, allowing it to transfer zero-shot to new image distributions and tasks. The model is trained on the [SA-1B dataset](https://ai.facebook.com/datasets/segment-anything/), which contains over 1 billion masks on 11 million licensed and privacy-respecting images. SAM has demonstrated impressive zero-shot performance, often surpassing prior fully supervised results.
Example images with overlaid masks from our newly introduced dataset, SA-1B. SA-1B contains 11M diverse, high-resolution, licensed, and privacy protecting images and 1.1B high-quality segmentation masks. These masks were annotated fully automatically by SAM, and as verified by human ratings and numerous experiments, are of high quality and diversity. Images are grouped by number of masks per image for visualization (there are ∼100 masks per image on average).
Auto-annotation is an essential feature that allows you to generate a [segmentation dataset](https://docs.ultralytics.com/datasets/segment) using a pre-trained detection model. It enables you to quickly and accurately annotate a large number of images without the need for manual labeling, saving time and effort.
