FED-PV: A Large-Scale Synthetic Frame/Event Dataset for Particle-Based Velocimetry
Abstract
Particle-based velocimetry (PV) is a widely used technique for non-invasive flow field measurements in fluid mechanics. Existing PV measurements typically rely on a single type of particle recording. With advancements in deep learning and information fusion, incorporating multiple different particle recordings presents a promising avenue for next-generation PV measurement techniques. However, we argue that the lack of cross-modal datasets -- combining frame-based recordings and event-based recordings -- represents a significant bottleneck in the development of fusion measurement algorithms. To address this critical gap, we developed a dual-modal data generator FED-PV to synthesize frame-based images and event-based recordings of moving particles, resulting in a 350GB dataset generated using our approach. This generator and dataset will facilitate advancements in novel PV algorithms.
