VOC(Visual Object Classes) dataset.
The generated dataset with different task setting has different output columns:
- task =
Detection
, output columns:[image, dtype=uint8]
, [bbox, dtype=float32]
,[label, dtype=uint32]
,[difficult, dtype=uint32]
,[truncate, dtype=uint32]

.
- task =
- Parameters
dataset_dir (str) – Path to the root directory that contains the dataset.
task (str, optional) – Set the task type of reading voc data, now only support
'Segmentation'
or'Detection'
. Default:'Segmentation'
.usage (str, optional) – Set the task type of ImageSets. Default:
'train'
. If task is'Segmentation'
, image and annotation list will be loaded in ./ImageSets/Segmentation/usage + “.txt”; If task is ‘Detection’, image and annotation list will be loaded in ./ImageSets/Main/usage + “.txt”; if task and usage are not set, image and annotation list will be loaded in ./ImageSets/Segmentation/train.txt as default.class_indexing (dict, optional) – A str-to-int mapping from label name to index, only valid in ‘Detection’ task. Default:
None
, the folder names will be sorted alphabetically and each class will be given a unique index starting from 0.num_samples (int, optional) – The number of images to be included in the dataset. Default:
None
, all images.num_parallel_workers (int, optional) – Number of worker threads to read the data. Default:
None
, will use global default workers(8), it can be set bymindspore.dataset.config.set_num_parallel_workers()
.shuffle (bool, optional) – Whether to perform shuffle on the dataset. Default:
None
, expected order behavior shown in the table below.decode (bool, optional) – Decode the images after reading. Default:
False
.sampler (Sampler, optional) – Object used to choose samples from the dataset. Default:
None
, expected order behavior shown in the table below.num_shards (int, optional) – Number of shards that the dataset will be divided into. Default:
None
. When this argument is specified, num_samples reflects the maximum sample number of per shard.shard_id (int, optional) – The shard ID within num_shards . Default:
None
. This argument can only be specified when num_shards is also specified.cache (DatasetCache, optional) – Use tensor caching service to speed up dataset processing. More details: Single-Node Data Cache . Default:
None
, which means no cache is used.extra_metadata (bool, optional) – Flag to add extra meta-data to row. If True, an additional column named
[_meta-filename, dtype=string]
will be output at the end. Default:False
.decrypt (callable, optional) – Image decryption function, which accepts the path of the encrypted image file and returns the decrypted bytes data. Default:
None
, no decryption.
- Raises
RuntimeError – If dataset_dir does not contain data files.
RuntimeError – If xml of Annotations is an invalid format.
RuntimeError – If xml of Annotations loss attribution of object .
RuntimeError – If xml of Annotations loss attribution of bndbox .
RuntimeError – If sampler and shuffle are specified at the same time.
RuntimeError – If sampler and num_shards/shard_id are specified at the same time.
RuntimeError – If num_shards is specified but shard_id is None.
RuntimeError – If shard_id is specified but num_shards is None.
ValueError – If num_parallel_workers exceeds the max thread numbers.
ValueError – If task is not equal
'Segmentation'
or'Detection'
.ValueError – If task is
'Segmentation'
but class_indexing is notNone
.ValueError – If txt related to mode is not exist.
ValueError – If shard_id is not in range of [0, num_shards ).
- Tutorial Examples:
Note
Column ‘[_meta-filename, dtype=string]’ won’t be output unless an explicit rename dataset op is added to remove the prefix(‘_meta-‘).

Examples
>>> import mindspore.dataset as ds >>> voc_dataset_dir = "/path/to/voc_dataset_directory" >>> >>> # 1) Read VOC data for segmentation training >>> dataset = ds.VOCDataset(dataset_dir=voc_dataset_dir, task="Segmentation", usage="train") >>> >>> # 2) Read VOC data for detection training >>> dataset = ds.VOCDataset(dataset_dir=voc_dataset_dir, task="Detection", usage="train") >>> >>> # 3) Read all VOC dataset samples in voc_dataset_dir with 8 threads in random order >>> dataset = ds.VOCDataset(dataset_dir=voc_dataset_dir, task="Detection", usage="train", ... num_parallel_workers=8) >>> >>> # 4) Read then decode all VOC dataset samples in voc_dataset_dir in sequence >>> dataset = ds.VOCDataset(dataset_dir=voc_dataset_dir, task="Detection", usage="train", ... decode=True, shuffle=False) >>> >>> # In VOC dataset, if task='Segmentation', each dictionary has keys "image" and "target" >>> # In VOC dataset, if task='Detection', each dictionary has keys "image" and "annotation"
About VOC dataset:
The PASCAL Visual Object Classes (VOC) challenge is a benchmark in visual object category recognition and detection, providing the vision and machine learning communities with a standard dataset of images and annotation, and standard evaluation procedures.
You can unzip the original VOC-2012 dataset files into this directory structure and read by MindSpore’s API.
