Overview
Dataset for testing object class detection algorithms.
It contains 170 images containing one or more horses horses collected from the Internet (positive images), and 170 images without horses (negative images).
All horses in all images are annotated with a bounding-box. The main challenges it offers are clutter, intra-class shape variability, and scale changes. The horses are mostly unoccluded, taken from approximately the side viewpoint, and face the same direction.
The package also includes edgemaps produced by the excellent Berkeley natural boundary detector.
This dataset appeared in the CVPR 2007 [1], PAMI 2008 [2], and IJCV 2010 [3] papers.

History
New in V 1.02 and 1.03:
- adjusted ground-truth of image 194 to fit the image size
- fixed ground-truth annotation for images 4047 and 4111.
