| 3D Object Recognition Stereo Dataset
This dataset consists of 9 objects and 80 test images. The training images are
stereo views for each of the 9 objects that are roughly equally spaced around the equatorial ring for each of them. The number of stereo views ranges from 7 to 12 for the different objects. The test images are
monocular images of objects under varying amounts of clutter and occlusion and different lighting conditions.
Results on this dataset are reported in the following paper:
