Lightly Insights

Get quick insights about your ML dataset.

Lightly Insights visualises basic statistics of an image dataset. You provide a folder with images and object detection labels, and it generates a static HTML webpage with metrics and plots.

Features

• Supports all object detection label formats that can be read with Labelformat package. That includes YOLO, COCO, KITTI, PascalVOC, Lightly and Labelbox.
• Shows the image, object and class counts
• Analyzes how many images have no labels, and provides their filenames.
• Shows image samples
• Shows an analysis of image and object sizes
• Shows an analysis per class with object sizes, counts per image, location heatmap and other.
• Typed
• MIT licensed

Installation

pip install lightly-insights

Usage

Lightly Insights report is generated by a python script. This is necessary to support different label formats.

The example below uses PascalVOC 2007 dataset. You can follow the example by downloading it (~450MB):

wget http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2007/VOCtrainval_06-Nov-2007.tar
tar -xvf VOCtrainval_06-Nov-2007.tar

To run Lightly Insights, we need to provide:

• Image folder. In our case that is ./VOCdevkit/VOC2007/JPEGImages.
• Object detection labels. They are ingested as Labelformat ObjectDetectionInput class. For PascalVOC the constructor needs the folder with annotations ./VOCdevkit/VOC2007/Annotations and the list of classes. For other format classes, please refer to Labelformat formats.

from pathlib import Path
from labelformat.formats import PascalVOCObjectDetectionInput
from lightly_insights import analyze, present

# Analyze an image folder.
image_analysis = analyze.analyze_images(
    image_folder=Path("./VOCdevkit/VOC2007/JPEGImages")
)

# Analyze object detections.
label_input = PascalVOCObjectDetectionInput(
    input_folder=Path("./VOCdevkit/VOC2007/Annotations"),
    category_names=(
        "person,bird,cat,cow,dog,horse,sheep,aeroplane,bicycle,boat,bus,car,"
        + "motorbike,train,bottle,chair,diningtable,pottedplant,sofa,tvmonitor"
    )
)
od_analysis = analyze.analyze_object_detections(label_input=label_input)

# Create HTML report.
present.create_html_report(
    output_folder=Path("./html_report"),
    image_analysis=image_analysis,
    od_analysis=od_analysis,
)

To view the report, open ./html_report/index.html.

Development

The library targets python 3.7 and higher. We use poetry to manage the development environment.

Here is an example development workflow:

# Create a virtual environment with development dependencies
poetry env use python3.7
poetry install

# Make changes
...

# Autoformat the code
poetry run make format

# Run tests
poetry run make all-checks
