Fine-grained vehicle categorization has evolved into a significant subject of study due to its importance in the Intelligent Transportation System. A highly accurate and real-time vehicle categorization system will help to support many applications not only in the security aspect but also many walks of life. In this paper, facing the growing importance of this study, we present an image dataset named Frontal-103 to promote the development of the vision-based research on the vehicle, and particularly for the task of fine-grained vehicle categorization. This paper provides a detailed analysis of Frontal-103 in its current state: 1,759 fine-grained vehicle models in 103 vehicle makes and 65,433 web-nature images in total. Apart from the specific viewpoint and vehicle hierarchy, Frontal-103 is superior to the other state-of-the-art vehicle image datasets not only in the scale and diversity but also the accuracy and fine-grained level. We further discuss the peculiar challenges and issues lies in the task of fine-grained vehicle categorization and illustrate the usefulness of our dataset in addressing those problems. We hope Frontal-103 will be beneficial to the vision-based vehicle analysis and contribute to the computer vision community.
