DOTA: Resized and Hugging Face-Ready Vision Dataset
DOTA is a restructured version of the DOTA (Dataset for Object Detection in Aerial Images), specifically designed to simplify object detection workflows. By resizing the original images and converting them to the COCO format, this project provides an easier way to use DOTA with popular computer vision frameworks. Additionally, the dataset is formatted for seamless integration with Hugging Face datasets, unlocking new possibilities for training and experimentation.
🌟 Key Features
Resized Images: Reduced image dimensions for faster training and inference while maintaining key details. COCO Format: Compatible with major deep learning libraries like PyTorch, TensorFlow, and MMDetection. Hugging Face Integration: Ready-to-use with the Hugging Face datasets library for efficient data loading and preprocessing.
📂 Dataset Structure
COCO Format
The dataset follows the COCO dataset structure, making it straightforward to work with:
dota/
├── annotations/
│ ├── instances_train.json
│ ├── instances_val.json
│ └── instances_test.json
├── train/
├── val/
├── test/
Hugging Face Format
The dataset is compatible with the datasets library. You can load it directly using:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("HichTala/dota")
🖼️ Sample Visualizations
Above: An example of resized images with bounding boxes in COCO format.
🚀 Getting Started
Install Required Libraries
- Install datasets for Hugging Face compatibility:
pip install datasets
- Use any object detection framework supporting COCO format for training.
Load the Dataset
Hugging Face:
from datasets import load_dataset
dataset = load_dataset("HichTala/dota")
train_data = dataset["train"]
Custom Script for COCO-Compatible Frameworks:
import json
from pycocotools.coco import COCO
coco = COCO("annotations/train.json")
see demo notebook here for more details.
⚙️ Preprocessing Details
- Resizing: The original large images were split into smaller patches, each resized to 512x512 pixels.
- Annotations: Converted to COCO format for better compatibility and flexibility.
