SoccerSynth-Detection: A Synthetic Dataset for Soccer Player Detection

SoccerSynth-Detection is a synthetic dataset for soccer-player detection. It was generated using a controllable soccer simulation pipeline focused on broadcast-style main-camera views. The dataset contains synthetic soccer images and player annotations generated under randomized visual conditions, including lighting, field appearance, player textures, camera settings, and simulated motion blur. The dataset is associated with the preprint/manuscript "SoccerSynth-Detection: A Synthetic Dataset for Soccer Player Detection" and is intended to support research on soccer-player detection, synthetic-to-real transfer, pretraining, and mixed real-synthetic training. This record contains the dataset archive and checksum information for verifying the downloaded files.
