how to label images for object detection
Hey Changbin, I heard you're good with computers. Could you tell me about labeling images for object detection?
Hey, sure I can help with that. Labeling images for object detection is indeed very crucial in the field of computer vision. It involves defining the regions of interest in an image where the objects reside.
That sounds like a tedious task. Is there a specific way to do it?
It can be, but there are several tools like LabelImg, VoTT, RectLabel, etc., which allow you to draw bounding boxes around the objects directly. You then need to label each bounding box with the class of the object it encloses.
I see, what's the importance of this labeling task though?
Well, these labeled images are used by machine learning models to learn the patterns. With proper labeling, models can accurately detect objects in new and unseen images. It's pretty much like teaching a child to recognize objects by showing them pictures and giving them names.
