So you're working on building a machine learning model, and you have hit the realization that you will need to annotate a lot of data to build a performant model. In the machine learning meta today, you will be bombarded with services offering to fully outsource your labeling woes.
When we are teaching a machine learning model to recognize items of interest, we often take a laser focus towards gathering a dataset that is representative of the task we want our algorithm to master.
The ImageNet dataset is long-standing landmark in computer vision.
The impact ImageNet has had on computer vision research is driven by the
dataset's size and semantic diversity.
Let's dive into

Computer vision problems start with finding high quality image datasets.
Fortunately, access to common image data is increasingly easier. Datasets like
Microsoft's COCO dataset [https://blog.roboflow.com/coco-dataset/] and
The computer vision research community benchmarks new models and enhancements to
existing models to test model performance. Benchmarking happens using standard
datasets which can be used across models. With this
Today, we introduce a new and improved shear augmentation. We'll walk through some details on the change, as well as some intuition and results backing up our reasoning.
In this post, we will demystify the label map by discussing the role that it plays in the computer vision annotation process. Then we will get hands on with some real life examples using a label map.
In this post, we will walk through how to jumpstart your image annotation process using LabelMe, a free, open source labeling tool.
To get started with LabelMe, we will walk
At Roboflow, we often get asked, what is the train, validation, test split and why do I need it? The motivation is quite simple: you should separate you data into train, validation, and test splits to prevent your model from overfitting and to accurately evaluate your model.
Detecting small objects is one of the most challenging and important problems in
computer vision. In this post, we will discuss some of the strategies we have
