Vehicle_Power_Type_Trajectory_Dataset (VTT)

Can you tell what kind of vehicle produced a trace from how it moves?

VTT is a sequence-classification dataset of trajectory and CAN-bus signals at 10 Hz: ego speed and acceleration, steering angle, steering rate and normalized steering torque, body yaw rate, pedal and turn-signal flags, and the interaction with the lead vehicle (distance, relative speed, lead acceleration, headway, time to collision). Each drive is labelled with the footprint size class and the powertrain type of the vehicle that produced it. The release contains 9,062 drives (3,949.8 h) from 1,431 pseudonymous vehicles on 360 vehicle platforms of 38 brands, and 201,390 eligible 60 s windows. Periods during which a driving automation system (DAS) controlled the vehicle are kept and labelled per sample (62.6 % of all samples show automation activity), so the data describe both human driving and automated driving of the same vehicles.

No video, images, positions, timestamps or driver-monitoring signals are included.

Labels

Footprint size class (task A)

size_class is derived from the vehicle platform's footprint = wheelbase x mean track width (m^2) with two fixed thresholds: SMALL below 4.43 m^2, MID up to 4.88 m^2, LARGE above. The underlying specifications (wheelbase_mm, track_front_mm, track_rear_mm, footprint_m2, curb_mass_kg, body, the legacy segment code size_code) are published per drive so that other size definitions can be derived. size_class is null when the platform's specifications are unknown; such drives are not eligible for task A (task_size_eligible = False).

Powertrain (task B)

powertrain is one of ICE, HEV, PHEV, BEV, or null. powertrain_raw keeps the seven-value platform code (ICE, HEV, PHEV, BEV, MIXED, UNK, FCEV); platforms sold with several powertrains that cannot be told apart from the logs are MIXED and get a null powertrain. The main task B is BEV vs ICE (task_bev_ice_eligible = powertrain in {BEV, ICE}); the four-class problem (powertrain not null) is a secondary task. The two tasks are evaluated separately.

Splits

Every drive carries two independent split assignments. The unit of both is the identity group (group_id: same device, same vehicle identity or shared drive names), so no group appears in two splits.

  • split_platform (headline): whole car models (the lab taxonomy's base models, column model) are held out as the test split; a held-out model never appears in training or validation (about 15 % of the hours of each size x powertrain cell, 41 held-out models, chosen so that a brand contributes both powertrain classes where possible). The remaining groups are split group-disjoint into train and validation (about 15 % of the remaining hours), so a model may be shared between training and validation. Drives of a group that also drove a held-out model are marked excluded on its other models: they belong to no split and are left out of every protocol.
  • split_device (secondary): groups are assigned at random within each size x powertrain cell with 70 / 15 / 15 % of the eligible hours; models may be shared across splits.

Lab-owned devices are always in train. A size x powertrain cell with fewer than 10 test hours, 5 groups or 2 platforms is flagged low_support_cell and is reported separately, never inside headline numbers.

Protocols

All filters are boolean expressions over index/windows_60s.parquet columns (pandas syntax). Replace task_size_eligible / size_class by task_bev_ice_eligible / powertrain for task B.

protocol filter
train eligible & task_size_eligible & (split_platform == "train")
validation eligible & task_size_eligible & (split_platform == "validation")
test_full (headline) eligible & task_size_eligible & (split_platform == "test")
test_balanced window_id.isin(splits/eval_balanced_size_test.parquet.window_id) (class-balanced, at most 25 % of a class from one group and 50 % from one car model)
test_human_only test_full & human_only_strict (no automation activity in the window nor in the 10 s before it)
drive_full one prediction per test drive: the mean of the class-probability vectors of the drive's test_full windows, arg-max (a tie goes to the earlier class of the task); drives without an eligible window are excluded and counted separately
drive_human_only the same over the drive's test_human_only windows
vehicle_full one prediction per pseudonymous vehicle: the mean over the test_full windows of all its test drives; the subset of vehicles with at least two drives is reported as vehicle_full_multi
split_device variants the same filters with split_device in place of split_platform; the balanced lists of this scheme are splits/eval_balanced_<task>_test_device.parquet

Headline metric: macro-averaged F1 over the classes of the task on test_full, excluding windows with low_support_cell = True (reported separately). splits/train_uniform_<task>.parquet provides a per-window weight (inverse class frequency to the power 0.5, capped at 10) for class-balanced training. The balanced evaluation lists and both splits were generated with seed 20261105.

Official model inputs

Under the official protocol a model may use only the following drive-table columns (the same columns form the 600-step sequences of the window shards). Everything else in the drive tables and all index columns are metadata for analysis and must not be fed to a model (they carry brand- and platform-specific shortcuts).

official input unit meaning
v_mps m/s ego speed
a_mps2 m/s^2 ego longitudinal acceleration (vehicle estimate)
steer_angle_deg deg steering wheel angle, left positive
steer_rate_degps deg/s steering wheel angle rate
steer_torque_norm - steer_torque_raw divided by the drive's 95th percentile of |torque| while moving and steering
yaw_rate_radps rad/s body yaw rate, left positive (device IMU / localizer)
curv_1pm 1/m path curvature = yaw_rate / v (v >= 1 m/s and yaw_valid, else NaN)
lat_acc_mps2 m/s^2 lateral acceleration = v * yaw_rate
gas_pressed - accelerator pedal pressed
brake_pressed - brake pedal pressed
steer_pressed - driver torque above the vehicle's threshold
standstill - vehicle reports standstill
das_enabled - driving automation engaged: controller enabled OR stock cruise enabled
lead_valid - lead vehicle tracked (status and distance > 0.5 m, sample fresh <= 0.75 s)
lead_d_m m longitudinal distance to lead
lead_v_rel_mps m/s lead speed minus ego speed
lead_speed_mps m/s lead speed = v_mps + lead_v_rel_mps
lead_a_slope_mps2 m/s^2 lead acceleration: causal 1 s least-squares slope of lead speed within the lead episode
thw_s s time headway = lead_d_m / v_mps (v > 0.5 m/s)
ttc_s s time to collision = lead_d_m / closing speed (closing > 0.1 m/s)

Not model inputs: seg, gap, v_raw_mps, steer_torque_raw, yaw_valid, pose_source, gas, brake, blinker_left, blinker_right, das_any, op_lat_active, op_long_active, cruise_available, v_set_mps, lead_y_m, lead_source, lead_prob, lead2_valid, lead2_d_m, lead2_v_rel_mps, qc_lead_age_s, qc_yaw_age_s, and every column of the index tables.

Reference results

Classifiers that use the official channels only (hand-crafted window statistics with logistic regression and gradient boosting; a one-dimensional ResNet, a bidirectional GRU, a Transformer encoder and Mamba state-space models) are reported with their code in experiments/RESULTS.md of the code repository, under exactly these protocols and split schemes. They are reference points for the two tasks, not a leaderboard.

Drive tables (data/)

Row k is the k-th sample of the vehicle-state stream; t_s = k / 10 is nominal time. A gap flag marks rows preceded by more than 0.3 s without data. Lower-rate streams (lead vehicle, yaw rate, automation state) are held causally to the sample times and set to NaN when older than 0.75 s (lead) or 0.625 s (yaw).

Limitations and caveats

  • Labels are platform attributes. size_class and powertrain describe the vehicle platform identified from the vehicle's own bus identification, not a measurement of each drive. A misidentified platform mislabels every drive of that vehicle; known label-noise notes are in label_note.
  • MIXED platforms are null. Platforms sold with several powertrains that the logs cannot separate carry no powertrain label (11.1 % of the drives) and are excluded from task B.
  • Mild hybrids follow the platform code of their generation and may be labelled ICE.
  • Automation share. 62.6 % of the samples show DAS activity; control style during these periods reflects the controller as much as the vehicle. Use das_enabled, das_any, human_only and human_only_strict to restrict analyses.
  • Lead-vehicle source. On 56.2 % of the drives the lead vehicle comes from a camera model rather than a radar (radar_unavailable, lead_source); distance noise and availability differ between the two.
  • Torque units. steer_torque_raw is in each make's own CAN units and is not comparable across brands; steer_torque_norm divides by the drive's 95th percentile of |torque| while moving and steering.
  • Dead channels. The pedal magnitudes are not populated on every vehicle: gas is NaN on 63.9 % and brake on 49.4 % of the drives (gas_alive, brake_alive); the *_pressed flags are always valid.
  • Quantization and sampling. Signal resolution and the exact sample clock differ by make; tables are indexed by sample, not by a fixed clock, and t_s is nominal.
  • Region and software confounds. region, software_era, device_type, pose_source and the lead source are correlated with brand and powertrain; they are metadata, not inputs.
  • Low-support cells. Some size x powertrain cells have few groups or platforms; they are flagged low_support_cell and excluded from headline metrics.
  • Duplicates. Drives stored twice were merged before pseudonymisation; drives of one device remain correlated, which is why groups, not drives, are the unit of the splits.
  • Car-following definitions. thw_s requires v > 0.5 m/s; the car-following share cf_frac uses headway <= 6 s.

Privacy and ethics

  • Vehicles, drives and groups carry random, independent pseudonyms drawn for this release only; they cannot be linked to identifiers of any other dataset.
  • The release contains no positions, no absolute times or dates, no video or images, and no driver-monitoring signals. region is a continent-level bucket; seg is an ordinal; t_s is relative to the start of the drive.
  • Labels describe vehicle models, not people. Rare models may be recognisable as a model, never as a person.
  • Access is granted for research on vehicle dynamics and driving behaviour. Re-identification of vehicles or drivers and linkage with other datasets are prohibited.
