Ability to utilize modAL framework with mmdetection models #9839

What's the feature?

Utilizing modAL framework's active learning with standard mmdetection models and data-formats . Currently modAL provides support for pure pytorch models via skorch but as open-mmlab ecosystem utilizes config file workflows I am hoping a feature to include this would be available

modAL workflow with pytorch models: https://modal-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/content/examples/Pytorch_integration.html

Any other context?

Hi @avadhut-00 , That is a good idea!

I would also like if active learning was natively integrated into the framework following the modular MMDetection spirit. I am working on performing active learning using MMDetection, and I have to rely on crude hacks to integrate something of that nature.

And I don't think it would be difficult to integrate. It only requires introducing active learning cycles and data acquisition step.
