Application to speed up manual labelling of images

iLABEL

The aim of this work is to semi-automatise labelling image process. We want to achieve this through:

  • speeding up the process
  • decrease the human error
  • make the process reproducible

Case study

Here we want to label a set of 1k images with some quality measures. Those labels are:

  • overall quality
  • light
  • growth
  • focus

Starting from this...

im_id overall light ... focus
im1 NA NA ... NA
im2 NA NA ... NA
im3 NA NA ... NA

Practically, the user will be asked to:

  • load a set of images (specify the path)
  • visualise one image at time
  • input the value and submit
  • go to next image and repeat
  • save and eventually continue from this step

And we get back...

im_id overall light ... focus
im1 0.1 0.1 ... 0.3
im2 0.9 0.6 ... 1
im3 0.7 0.6 ... 0.5

In the backhand

When the user defines the list of images a database have to be created. When the user submit his values, they should be added to the images on the db.

An idea for the interface

To keep in mind (not mandatory at the beginning)

  • Number and name of the metrics could vary depending on the need
