Active learning not working with custom model about vott HOT 6 OPEN

I solved my problem by making use of ImgLabel and writing a small script which uses a object detection model output and writes it out in the same xml format and directory as required by ImgLabel.

This essentially works as an active learning pipeline as it auto annotates all the images which then only requires review by an annotator.

If you have any more questions let me know!

Do you have any documentation about using active learning in VoTT? If you do, can you send me, please? I'm not finding anything about it.

@DanielStraussKritzinger can you share the code please?

thank you

Are there any updates on this issue. I'm running into the same problem. compared my model.json with the one contained in this repo, and cannot find any obvious differences. Is it possible that the issue is with the version of TF? I used 2.4. Maybe the binary format has chanced since November 2020?

Vott is a dead project with very little people working on it. Honestly, check out ImgLabel. When labelling, it outputs its labelled annotations to a specified file in xml format. This output file both stores outputted annotations, but is also used to read into the application the annotations made. This thus means that you can manually add annotations to the xml file or you can use a model to predict the annotations and then write the output to the xml file. I did this and it works perfectly. You thus label a few images, train your model on those images, run the trained model on the images (which automatically also edits the xml files), check the newly annotated images for anything which is missing or wrong on imglabel, repeat...

I see, thanks. I had specific constraints that lead me to use VoTT (e.g. Azure blob storage support). Other options that directly support active learning are CoCo Annotator and Prodigy. https://github.com/jsbroks/coco-annotator and https://prodi.gy/
