We are proud to offer the Sama-Coco dataset, a relabelling of the Coco-2017 dataset by our own in-house Sama associates (here’s more information about our people!). We invite the Machine Learning (ML) community to use it for anything you would like to do – all free of charge and ungated.
This is part of our ongoing effort to redefine data quality for the modern age, and to contribute to the wider research and development efforts of the ML community. Here are the ungated links to the two datasets (both covered by the Creative Commons license) so that you can get started right away.
In a parking lot, the world is wide open. Drifters use these maps to practice "Manji" transitions (weaving back and forth) without the fear of race-ending crashes. They set up custom courses using traffic cones or the natural layout of the lot’s islands. It allows for tandem drifting with friends where the only limit is the driver's imagination, not the track designer's guard rails. For the racing purist, the parking lot is the physics lab. It is the safest place in the world to learn the limits of a vehicle.
However, tucked away in the vast libraries of third-party mods lies a genre of map that is arguably more important to the longevity and skill ceiling of the player than any professional race track: the . Assetto Corsa Parking Lot Map
This open-ended design philosophy creates three distinct pillars of gameplay that define the Assetto Corsa experience: The most visible use of parking lot maps is the drifting community. Assetto Corsa is widely considered the king of drifting simulators, thanks to its advanced tire physics model. However, drifting on a race track can be frustrating. Run wide at Suzuka, and you hit a wall that resets your car. Miss an apex at Laguna Seca, and you’re in the gravel. In a parking lot, the world is wide open
