• Abstract summary: We discuss the characteristics of the Stanford Drone dataset (SDD) We demonstrate how this insufficiency reduces the information available to users and can impact performance. Our intention is to increase the performance and methods applied to this dataset going forward, while also clearly detailing less obvious features of the dataset for new users.

• Abstract: Several datasets exist which contain annotated information of individuals' trajectories. Such datasets are vital for many real-world applications, including trajectory prediction and autonomous navigation. One prominent dataset currently in use is the Stanford Drone Dataset (SDD). Despite its prominence, discussion surrounding the characteristics of this dataset is insufficient. We demonstrate how this insufficiency reduces the information available to users and can impact performance. Our contributions include the outlining of key characteristics in the SDD, employment of an information-theoretic measure and custom metric to clearly visualize those characteristics, the implementation of the PECNet and Y-Net trajectory prediction models to demonstrate the outlined characteristics' impact on predictive performance, and lastly we provide a comparison between the SDD and Intersection Drone (inD) Dataset. Our analysis of the SDD's key characteristics is important because without adequate information about available datasets a user's ability to select the most suitable dataset for their methods, to reproduce one another's results, and to interpret their own results are hindered. The observations we make through this analysis provide a readily accessible and interpretable source of information for those planning to use the SDD. Our intention is to increase the performance and reproducibility of methods applied to this dataset going forward, while also clearly detailing less obvious features of the dataset for new users.

  dataset reduction (DR) seeks to select or distill samples from large datasets into smaller subsets while preserving performance on target tasks. We introduce dataset Reduction Using Privileged Information (DRUPI), which enriches DR by synthesizing privileged information alongside the reduced dataset. Our findings reveal that effective feature labels must balance between being overly discriminative and excessively diverse, with a moderate level proving optimal for improving the reduced dataset's efficacy.

  Aspect Sentiment Quad Prediction (ASQP) aims to predict all quads (aspect term, aspect category, opinion term, sentiment polarity) for a given review. A key challenge in the ASQP task is the scarcity of labeled data, which limits the performance of existing methods. We propose a self-training framework with a pseudo-label scorer, wherein a scorer assesses the match between reviews and their pseudo-labels.
