turicreate.image_classifier.annotate

turicreate.image_classifier.annotate(data, image_column=None, annotation_column='annotations')

Annotate images using a GUI assisted application. When the GUI is terminated an SFrame with the representative images and annotations is returned.

Parameters:
data : SArray | SFrame

The data containing the input images.

image_column: string, optional

The name of the input column in the SFrame that contains the image that needs to be annotated. In case data is of type SArray, then the output SFrame contains a column (with this name) containing the input images.

annotation_column : string, optional

The column containing the annotations in the output SFrame.

Returns:
out : SFrame

A new SFrame that contains the newly annotated data.
