CloudCV: Object Detection

http://cloudcv.org/objdetect/

Benchmarks and challenges like PASCAL VOC and ImageNet have played a crucial role in advancing computer vision algorithms. However, with minor exceptions, such challenges also result in massive duplication of effort, with each research group developing its own infrastructure and code-base. In fact, warnings of fragmentation and lack of code reuse have repeatedly been among the top observations by forward-looking NSF funded workshops [1,2].

CloudCV can help unify fragmented efforts by being a unified data and code repository.
