MOO: A Multi-view Oriented Observations Dataset for Viewpoint Analysis in Cattle Re-Identification 文章

arXiv:2603.04314v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Animal re-identification (ReID) faces critical challenges due to viewpoint variations, particularly in Aerial-Ground (AG-ReID) settings where models must match individuals across drastic elevation changes. However, existing datasets lack the precise angular annotations required to systematically analyze these geometric variations. To address this, we introduce the Multi-view Oriented Observation (MOO) dataset, a large-scale synthetic AG-ReID dataset of $1,000$ cattle individuals captured from $128$ uniformly sampled viewpoints ($128,000$ annotated images). Using this controlled dataset, we quantify the influence of elevation and identify a critical elevation threshold, above which models generalize significantly better to unseen views.
