This is an open solution to the Google AI Open Images - Object Detection Track 😃
We are building entirely open solution to this competition. Specifically:
- Learning from the process - updates about new ideas, code and experiments is the best way to learn data science. Our activity is especially useful for people who wants to enter the competition, but lack appropriate experience.
- Encourage more Kagglers to start working on this competition.
- Deliver open source solution with no strings attached. Code is available on our GitHub repository 💻. This solution should establish solid benchmark, as well as provide good base for your custom ideas and experiments. We care about clean code 😃
- We are opening our experiments as well: everybody can have live preview on our experiments, parameters, code, etc. Check: Google-AI-Object-Detection-Challenge 📈.
This competition is special, because it used Open Images Dataset V4, which is quite large: >1.8M images and >0.5TB 😲 To make it more approachable, we are hosting entire dataset in the neptune's public directory 😎. You can use this dataset in neptune.ml with no additional setup 👍.
Kaggle discussion is our primary way of communication, however, we are also documenting our work on the Wiki pages 📘. Click on the dolphin to get started 🐬.
In this open source solution you will find references to the neptune.ml. It is free platform for community Users, which we use daily to keep track of our experiments. Please note that using neptune.ml is not necessary to proceed with this solution. You may run it as plain Python script 😉.
- Clone repository and install requirements (check requirements.txt)
- Register to the neptune.ml (if you wish to use it)
- Run experiment:
🔱
neptune run will appear here soon :)🐍
python command will appear here soon :)- Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/neptune-ml/open-solution-googleai-object-detection.git- Install requirements in your Python3 environment
pip3 install requirements.txt- Register to the neptune.ml (if you wish to use it)
- Update data directories in the neptune.yaml configuration file
- Run experiment:
🔱
neptune login
neptune run will appear here soon :)🐍
python command will appear here soon :)- collect submit from
experiment_directoryspecified in the neptune.yaml
