"""Process the ImageNet Challenge bounding boxes for TensorFlow model training.
This script is called as
process_bounding_boxes.py <dir> [synsets-file]
Where <dir> is a directory containing the downloaded and unpacked bounding box
data. If [synsets-file] is supplied, then only the bounding boxes whose
synstes are contained within this file are returned. Note that the
[synsets-file] file contains synset ids, one per line.
The script dumps out a CSV text file in which each line contains an entry.
n00007846_64193.JPEG,0.0060,0.2620,0.7545,0.9940
The entry can be read as:
<JPEG file name>, <xmin>, <ymin>, <xmax>, <ymax>
The bounding box for <JPEG file name> contains two points (xmin, ymin) and
(xmax, ymax) specifying the lower-left corner and upper-right corner of a
bounding box in *relative* coordinates.
The user supplies a directory where the XML files reside. The directory
structure in the directory <dir> is assumed to look like this:
<dir>/nXXXXXXXX/nXXXXXXXX_YYYY.xml
Each XML file contains a bounding box annotation. The script:
(1) Parses the XML file and extracts the filename, label and bounding box info.
(2) The bounding box is specified in the XML files as integer (xmin, ymin) and
(xmax, ymax) *relative* to image size displayed to the human annotator. The
size of the image displayed to the human annotator is stored in the XML file
as integer (height, width).
Note that the displayed size will differ from the actual size of the image
downloaded from image-net.org. To make the bounding box annotation useable,
we convert bounding box to floating point numbers relative to displayed
height and width of the image.
Note that each XML file might contain N bounding box annotations.
Note that the points are all clamped at a range of [0.0, 1.0] because some
human annotations extend outside the range of the supplied image.
See details here: http://image-net.org/download-bboxes
(3) By default, the script outputs all valid bounding boxes. If a
[synsets-file] is supplied, only the subset of bounding boxes associated
with those synsets are outputted. Importantly, one can supply a list of
synsets in the ImageNet Challenge and output the list of bounding boxes
associated with the training images of the ILSVRC.
We use these bounding boxes to inform the random distortion of images
supplied to the network.
If you run this script successfully, you will see the following output
to stderr:
> Finished processing 544546 XML files.
> Skipped 0 XML files not in ImageNet Challenge.
> Skipped 0 bounding boxes not in ImageNet Challenge.
> Wrote 615299 bounding boxes from 544546 annotated images.
