Annotation import was unsuccessful. For YOLO labels to be loaded correctly, labels.txt file is required.

[Xianyi-Wang]

Describe the bug I used MakeSense and exported the annotations to YOLO format, but when I uploaded these image files again and imported these annotations, it fails with error message as follow:

I guess this is because my file name is a timestamp and contains multiple dots, like "1670577347.002843.txt", but I saw that the bug was fixed in issue https://github.com/SkalskiP/make-sense/issues/140 , I don't know why it still doesn't work. I'm a newbie, please pardon me if I make some mistakes.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. select Import Annotations
2. select Multiple Files in YOLO Format
3. Select annotation files in format "1670577347.002843.txt"
4. Import fails with error "Annotation import was unsuccessful. For YOLO labels to be loaded correctly, labels.txt file is required."

Expected behavior I think it should success.

I have changed both the image and label filenames to ensure they don't contain multiple "." but it still doesn't work. And I have also tried to git clone and run make-sense locally, but importing still failed.

Hi, @Xianyi-Wang 👋🏻! Did you provided labels.txt file?

[Xianyi-Wang]

Yes, I did provided annotation files in txt format, but importing failed.

I am also facing the same problem in importing annotations, I am unsure what format in labels.txt file is needed. Please resolve the issue

[PowZone]

Same here. I need to export in Yolo format but there isn't a labels.txt in the output zip.

Thx!

[Nauman691]

i want to export the files in yolo format but there are no yolo format files in the downloaded folder

[rickkk856]

Any progress on this since then? Also need got this error,

[Halvani]

Same here! Only the annotations are exported, but not the labels.txt itself. This is very annoying if you have created a large number of labels. From the annotation text files you will only able to extract the IDs of the labels, but not the strings they are assigned to...

I've managed to solve the issue by creating the labels.txt file manually and putting it in the same folder of the files that i had previoulsy exported....

My suggestion is when starting a project make the labels.txt file like this for example

0 Class_01
1 Class_02
3 Class_03

And then create these labels in the same order at the web app, so when you export them the labels.txt file will not be exported but you'll have a backup made manually just to import them back and continue labelling in another day.

您好。您这个问题最后解决了吗？？？

[Hassan-Tamer]

It didn't work for me when I had the labels in a file with "classes.txt" as a name but when I renamed it "labels.txt" It worked successfully

[yusuphwasiu]

To resolve this, create a labels.txt file in the same folder with the annotations (i.e .txt) and put the labels in it as shown in the example below.

0 Dog
1 Cat
2 Fish

In the collection of .txt annotation files, make sure there is a labels.txt file that contains a list of labels. Therefore, you cannot upload only annotation files; You must also upload the labels.txt file. Here's an example:

labels.txt
image1.txt
image2.txt
image3.txt
image4.txt

Make sure to include the labels.txt file along with the annotation file when uploading it to makesense.ai.
