CityPersons

Introduced by Shanshan Zhang et al. in CityPersons: A Diverse Dataset for Pedestrian Detection1 Jan 2017 archive 2025-07-28

The CityPersons dataset is a subset of Cityscapes which only consists of person annotations. There are 2975 images for training, 500 and 1575 images for validation and testing. The average of the number of pedestrians in an image is 7. The visible-region and full-body annotations are provided.

Papers archive 2025-07-28

18 shown of 18 papers with a leaderboard row on this dataset's benchmarks, newest first. The archive's own "papers using this dataset" list was never published, so this is the benchmark-backed subset; the archive's count for this dataset is 129. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
