A web based tool to label images for objects that can be used to train dlib or other object detectors.
With most users switching over to the new version of imglab, the legacy version of imglab has been removed.
If you would like to be a maintainer/collaborator of this project/organization, please let me know. The only condition is that you need to be polite to any user feedback.
ImgLab is platform independent, runs directly from the browser, and has no prerequisites. It requires minimal CPU and memory.
One of imglab's key advantages is that you can use 3rd party libraries to fast annotation process, which can save a lot of time and effort.
Other features:
- Special attention for dlib users. You can easily adjust the order of parts / landmarks / featurepoints.
- Open-source and free forever.
- You can draw feature points and shapes (circles, rectangles, polygons). Other shapes like ellipses, lines, curves will be added in the future if there is demand.
- Small project file so it can be shared over the mail. In निम्न (Nimn) data format
- Multiple formats are supported
- dlib XML
- dlib pts
- Pascal VOC
- COCO
- Tenserflow (in plan)
Other quality-of-life features:
- Drag or resize any annotation shape.
- Select and delete any annotation shape or landmark points.
- Arrange landmark points in specific order by dragging their label up & down, instead of creating them in a particular order.
- Autosave in browser cache. Export to save on disk.
- Hotkeys support for easy switching between images, tools, labelling data, or to access other parts of the application for added convenience.
- Set image opacity to highlight annotation shapes and points.
- Tracking lines and mouse coordinates for precise annotations.
You can either import a file from a URL or from your computer. You can plot the landmark points by yourself or you can request to face++ API to collect the points which automatically gets plotted on the image (You will need to register on face++ to use the API.). If you feel that the result should be improved, you can drag a point to the correct location. Check Demo video on Youtube.
