XML_Augment

Overview

XML_Augment is a Python library for augmenting images and their corresponding XML annotations, typically used in object detection and image segmentation tasks. It includes functionalities for visualizing annotations, brightening images, translating images, and rotating images while updating the XML annotations accordingly.

Features

• Visualize Annotations: Display the annotated polygons and bounding boxes on the image.
• Brighten Images: Randomly adjust the brightness of the image.
• Translate Images: Randomly translate (shift) the image and update the annotations.
• Rotate Images: Randomly rotate the image and update the annotations.[ROTATION NOT SUPPORTED YET VERSION<=0.0.2]

Installation

To use this project, ensure you have the following libraries installed:

pip install xml_augmenter

Usage

Requirements

• Python 3.x
• OpenCV
• NumPy

Example

Import necessary libraries

import cv2 as cv
import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET
import numpy as np

Define the path to your image and XML annotation file

impath = "path/to/your/image.jpg"
anpath = "path/to/your/annotations.xml"

Create an instance of XML_Augment

xa = XML_Augment(anpath, impath)

Visualize annotations with custom text size

xa.visualize_annotaitons(text_size=0.3)

Apply translation augmentation with a maximum translation percent

xa.translate(0.2)

Apply brightness augmentation with a maximum brightness value

xa.brighten(100)

Apply rotation augmentation with a maximum rotation offset [ROTATION NOT SUPPORTED AS OF VERSION 0.0.2]

xa.rotate(45)

Visualize annotations again after augmentations

xa.visualize_annotaitons(text_size=0.3)

Show the final image with augmentations

cv.imshow('image', xa.image)
cv.waitKey()
cv.destroyAllWindows()
