At the EUCog-Euron Workshop 2011: Challenges, Good Experimental Methodology & Benchmarking within the European Robotics Forum (formerly EURON/EUROP annual meeting) we gave this presentation.

Ready-made data visualizations are available

Using the Rawseeds Data Visualization Toolkit you can create visualizations of the video data included in Rawseeds’ datasets. Such visualizations are now directly available as BitTorrent downloads from the pages of the relevant datasets.

Rawseeds Data Visualization Toolkit

giulio.fontana — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 15:33:28 +0000

A new tool has been added to Rawseeds’ datasets: the Data Visualization Toolkit, provided by University of Zaragoza. It includes Matlab scripts for the visualization of single or multiple sensor streams.
You can find the Data Visualization Toolkit among the files associated to any of the datasets. Each dataset also includes the videos generated by applying the Toolkit to its files.

The ICT Results magazine by Cordis has dedicated an article to Rawseeds: you can find it here.

(Please note that -at the moment of writing this, at least- the article includes a funny mistake. In fact, it mentions that we’re distributing half a Gigabyte of compressed data… while they actually weigh in at half a Terabyte!)

Deliverable D5.2: Final Benchmark Solutions

giulio.fontana — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 14:50:37 +0000

The Benchmark Solutions are solutions to Rawseeds’ Benchmark Problems; they are one of the elements of the Rawseeds Benchmarking Toolkit. Deliverable D5.2 is the final description of the set of BSs developed by Rawseeds’ partners, to be found online here.
You can download a shortened (i.e., lacking the attached papers) version of D5.2 by clicking here.
