MOT17 (Multiple Object Tracking 17)

Introduced by Anton Milan et al. in MOT16: A Benchmark for Multi-Object Tracking2 Mar 2016 archive 2025-07-28

The Multiple Object Tracking 17 (MOT17) dataset is a dataset for multiple object tracking. Similar to its previous version MOT16, this challenge contains seven different indoor and outdoor scenes of public places with pedestrians as the objects of interest. A video for each scene is divided into two clips, one for training and the other for testing. The dataset provides detections of objects in the video frames with three detectors, namely SDP, Faster-RCNN and DPM. The challenge accepts both on-line and off-line tracking approaches, where the latter are allowed to use the future video frames to predict tracks.

30 shown of 49 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 291. The Syntology column is from Syntology's graph (read 2026-09-24), stated per sample; it is not part of any archive number.
