The dataset should not be used for critical applications, particularly high-risk applications as named by the European AI Act under Annex III (which includes "AI systems intended to be used for the ‘real-time’ and ‘post’ remote biometric
|
| 86 |
+
identification of natural persons" and "AI systems intended to be used as safety components in the management and operation of road traffic"), without exhaustive
|
| 87 |
+
research into the fitness of the dataset, to evaluate whether it is "relevant, sufficiently representative, and to the best extent possible free of errors and complete
|
| 88 |
+
in view of the intended purpose of the system." No such claim is not made with the publication of this dataset.

## Dataset Structure
|
| 92 |
|
|
|
|
| 209 |
|
| 210 |
<!-- This section is meant to convey both technical and sociotechnical limitations. -->
|
| 211 |
|
| 212 |
+
|
| 213 |
+
- **Model variants:** Every class in the dataset contains only a single variant, while in practice, optional or retrofitted equipment such as
|
| 214 |
+
sunroofs or fog lights may vary within one make/model/year class. The accuracy of the 3D models is not evaluated separately.
|
| 215 |
+
Different national variants of the vehicles are not reflected in the dataset. The dataset covers European, Asian and American models,
|
| 216 |
+
but has a strong focus on models and variants common in Western Europe.
|
| 217 |
+
|
| 218 |
+
- **Vehicle lights:** The 3D models were not annotated for individual vehicle light functions, such that no distinction between
|
| 219 |
+
daytime lights, high beam, turn indicators, etc., is made in the dataset. The lights are not triggered individually.
|
| 220 |
+
|
| 221 |
+
- **License plates:** License plates are modeled as part of
|
| 222 |
+
the 3D mesh and textures and are therefore fixed for each
|
| 223 |
+
vehicle geometry. Some vehicles feature fixed license plate
|
| 224 |
+
numbers or logos, others contain empty license plates or no
|
| 225 |
+
license plates. Therefore, in the dataset without masked license
|
| 226 |
+
plates, license plate appearance will be identical across cars of the same class, and shared among some different classes as well.
|
| 227 |
+
|
| 228 |
+
- **Environment:** Environment variation is limited to over-
|
| 229 |
+
all lighting conditions and road model and textures. No com-
|
| 230 |
+
plex shadows or reflections from roadside objects, other ve-
|
| 231 |
+
hicles, occlusions, environment conditions (snow, raindrops,
|
| 232 |
+
fog, ...) or low light / nighttime conditions are included.
|
| 233 |
+
|
| 234 |
+
- **Environment and lighting:** Available light models are currently limited
|
| 235 |
+
and not calibrated. Therefore, no absolute scales are given
|
| 236 |
+
and the relative vehicle light brightness (and corresponding
|
| 237 |
+
effects) will be incorrect. Surface properties for physically-based rendering
|
| 238 |
+
are selected qualitatively and are not based on accurate physical measurements.
|
| 239 |
+
|
| 240 |
+
- **Perspective and camera:** Only frontal perspective images are included in the dataset, and only one set of intrinsic
|
| 241 |
+
camera parameters is used, and only a single camera lens type (based on a Tamron M112FM35 35 mm lens) and only a very limited set of imaging artifacts are simulated.

<!-- Users should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the dataset. More information needed for further recommendations. -->
|
| 249 |
|
| 250 |
+
It is recommended to use the dataset primarily for scientific research. Application to practical real-world use cases should include
|
| 251 |
+
human oversight and the exhaustive evaluation of the fitness for the respective purpose, including the impact of domain shifts.
