Unpacking COCO into .data/coco

[AndrewKemendo]

Per the README I placed all of the COCO zip files into .data/ and then ran

python download_and_convert_data.py

I kept getting path errors looking for DIRs that didn't exist

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'data/coco/annotations/instances_tr ain2014.json'

Then I unpacked instances_train2014.zip into .data/coco and it worked until I got a new error:

IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'data/coco/train2014/COCO_train201 4_000000262145.jpg'

Then I unpacked train2014.zip into .data/coco and ran it again and it is working to convert the images via GPU.

Is there a DIR list for where others need to be unpacked? I am worried that it's going to get through these and then throw a new error and I'm going to have to start over.

If there is a known DIR list then could we append download_and_convert_data.py to unpack to the right directories like so?

import zipfile
   zip_ref = zipfile.ZipFile(path_to_zip_file, 'r')
   zip_ref.extractall(directory_to_extract_to)
   zip_ref.close()

Does anyone have that DIR list or should they all unpack to .data/coco?

The five coco 2014 dataset I did download and I unzipped under coco create subfolders with the following names: "annotations", "records", "test2014", "train2014" and "val2014". So you look ok. Maybe you need to sudo your python call if for whatever reason the permissions on the folders are restricted.

Thanks. Yea it worked out with those two being unpacked. I might push a change to download_and_convert or at least the README if people would be interested.
