Participation====================================================================*

*

Machine Learning Competition on an Outdoor Driving Dataset (TAS500v1.1 
<https://www.mucar3.de/icpr2020-tas500/>) with a submission deadline on 
August 15, 2021. The best results are presented as part of the SUUE 
workshop <https://unstructured-scene-understanding.com/>@ DAGM GCPR 2021 
<https://dagm-gcpr.de/>on September 28, 2021 in Bonn, Germany.

====================================================================

The vast majority of research in scene understanding is applied in urban 
and structured environments. Unfortunately, these methods often fail 
when used in unstructured environments with challenging lighting 
conditions and many natural structures in the scene.We therefore invite 
you to participate in the Outdoor Semantic Segmentation Challenge 
<https://unstructured-scene-understanding.com/challenge.html>and give 
you the opportunity to benchmark your semantic segmentation algorithms 
on a novel dataset of finely-grained image annotations of real world 
outdoor driving scenes.

The challenge uses the TAS500 dataset 
<https://www.mucar3.de/icpr2020-tas500/>, which consists of over 500 
annotated images of different outdoor environments. The dataset applies 
a fine-grained vegetation and road surface annotation policy. The 
segmented scenes are of interest for applications in forestry robotics 
or autonomous driving in unstructured environments.The challenge is part 
of the 1st Workshop on Scene Understanding in Unstructured Evironments 
<https://unstructured-scene-understanding.com/index.html>(SUUE 2021) and 
is organized in conjunction with the DAGM GCPR 2021 
<https://dagm-gcpr.de/>. The results on the test set will be published 
on the public leaderboard on Codalab 
<https://competitions.codalab.org/competitions/31086>. The participants 
with the best submissions will be invited to present their results at 
the SUUE workshop on September 28, 2021.


The workshop presentation can also be pre-recorded or done remotely. We 
therefore invite the international research community to participate in 
the competition.
