Model training#

To achieve this, install Detectron2 and/or YOLACT. You can find detailed instructions on how to install them in additional pages. Once you’ve installed these packages, there’s no need to repeat the process. Refer to Install Options for installation options.

Create your COCO format dataset#

In order to use the deep learning models that power Annolid, your dataset needs to be in a format that is compatible with it (in this case the COCO format). Click on the ‘COCO dataset’ buttom. Click and select the annotation directory, the label file and the number of frames to use for training.

Note

If you choose a number of frame for training that is more than the number of available frame, the software will automatically split the dataset to use 70% of the data for training and 30% for testing.
