Vision-Language Global Localization (VLG-Loc) Dataset

This dataset is for evaluation of Vision-Language Global Localization (VLG-Loc).

Dataset Structure

Each dataset directory contains the following files. Note: All camera images (.png) are pre-corrected for lens distortion.

  • left_camera_image.png: Image from the rear-left camera of the robot.
  • center_camera_image.png: Image from the front-facing camera of the robot.
  • right_camera_image.png: Image from the rear-right camera of the robot.
  • data.yaml: Contains metadata, file paths, and ground truth information for the sample.
    • Format: A YAML file storing key-value pairs.
    • Example Content:
      task_label: global_localization
      ground_truth_pose: # Ground truth pose (x, y, yaw) in the map frame
        x: 1.4948672925333364
        y: -0.2408375545348086
        theta: -0.19592457986226722
      left_camera_image_path: left_camera_image.png
      center_camera_image_path: center_camera_image.png
      right_camera_image_path: right_camera_image.png
      pointcloud_path: pointcloud.npy
      timestamp: 1756980768.4454215
      
  • pointcloud.npy: Point cloud data from the 2D LiDAR scan, saved as a NumPy array.
    • Format: A NumPy ndarray.
    • Shape: (N, 2), where N is the number of points.
    • Data Type: float32.
    • Content: Each row represents a 2D point (x, y) in the robot's base coordinate frame.

Environments

The table below details the environments included in this dataset.

Environment Name Directory Name Description
UG/UA (Uniform Geometry, Uniform Appearance) env_ug_ua An environment of identical columns arranged in a regular pattern.
UG/DA (Uniform Geometry, Diverse Appearance) env_ug_da An environment consisting of regularly placed bookshelves.
DG/UA (Diverse Geometry, Uniform Appearance) env_dg_ua An indoor scene with many pieces of furniture and frequent item repetition.
DG/DA (Diverse Geometry, Diverse Appearance) env_dg_da An indoor environment populated with numerous objects, where a high variety of furniture reduces item repetition.
