In plain words: A camera above a beer tent checkout filmed food and drink, with every item boxed by hand so a detection system can spot them at the till. It includes more than 2,500 hand-made labels, plus days of footage and trained models to compare against.

Abstract · Oktoberfest Food Dataset

We release a realistic, diverse, and challenging dataset for object detection on images. The data was recorded at a beer tent in Germany and consists of 15 different categories of food and drink items. We created more than 2,500 object annotations by hand for 1,110 images captured by a video camera above the checkout. We further make available the remaining 600GB of (unlabeled) data containing days of footage. Additionally, we provide our trained models as a benchmark. Possible applications include automated checkout systems which could significantly speed up the process.
