Learning a Driving Simulator

the comma.ai driving dataset

7 and a quarter hours of largely highway driving. Enough to train what we had in Bloomberg.

Examples

We present two Machine Learning Experiments to show possible ways to use this dataset:

Training a steering angle predictor

Training a generative image model

Dataset structure

The dataset consists of 10 videos clips of variable size recorded at 20 Hz with a camera mounted on the windshield of an Acura ILX 2016. In parallel to the videos we also recorded some measurements such as car's speed, acceleration, steering angle, GPS coordinates, gyroscope angles. See the full log list here. These measurements are transformed into a uniform 100 Hz time base.

The dataset folder structure is the following:

+-- dataset
|   +-- camera
|   |   +-- 2016-04-21--14-48-08
|   |   ...
|   +-- log
|   |   +-- 2016-04-21--14-48-08
|   |   ...

All the files come in hdf5 format and are named with the time they were recorded. The camera dataset has shape number_frames x 3 x 160 x 320 and uint8 type. One of the log hdf5-datasets is called cam1_ptr and addresses the alignment between camera frames and the other measurements.
