Question regarding the number of output images #67

Closed agentmorris closed 1 year ago

agentmorris commented 1 year ago

Hello, there is something that I find to be a bit strange (I don't know if there is something that I am missing) and I thought maybe you could help me understand problem.

When running MD on a folder (either version 5 or version 4), it seems as if not all images in the folder are being analyzed. For example, A folder with 2200 images was inserted to Mega detector (batch processing). The total number of images in the output directories (animal_detection, person, person + animal, non detection etc.) is 450 IN TOTAL. Does mega detector analyzing all images and doesn't output all of them? Should I run it again on images that were not in any of the output directories?

Please note - the json file contains all image files (all 2200 images)

Cheers,

The OP contacted us by email as well, closing as a duplicate. Will re-open to comment if there is a bug here.

FYI there was not a bug here, we suggested that separate_detections_into_folders.py would probably be a better fit for what the OP is trying to achieve, and also pointed out the num_images_to_sample option to postprocess_batch_results.py for the (rare) case that a user wants to use postprocess_batch_results to render images for a complete batch.

All is well now!
