Instructions for Windows operating system:
Step 1: Simply run Application.bat file
Once the application is running.
Step 2: Open the folder “MixedImages”
This will display the image to be annotated. You can verify by navigating
through previous images (this will not overwrite the annotation of the
previous images).
Step 3: Please use labelling shortcuts to annotate the images.
Labelling Shortcuts:
1 → Beer Cup | 2 → Beer Bottle | 3 → Beer Can
4 → Wine | 5 → Champagne | 6 → Undecided | 7 → Other
Navigation Shortcuts:
o → Open folder, s → displays shortcuts, x → exit the program
Up and Right arrows will display the next image.
Down and Left arrows will display the previous image.
w or p → will display the previous image.
e or n → will display the next image.
Step 4: Please press “Save label” button
By doing so the image data you’ve completed in one session will be
automatically preprocessed for you and stores the data in
“PreprocessedDrinkingDataLabels.csv”. You can always have a look at
that file or I can have a look at it when you e-mail me this file.
Step 5: Exit the program.
Important instructions:
• Please do not delete any image. Every image is important, deletion
of images may lead to the crash of application.
• Always navigate through the labelling shortcuts as mentioned in
step 3.
By doing so, the annotation will be consistent without any
discrepancies or errors.
• Please try not to skip images by navigating through arrows,
although we can fix it, by manually adding the image name and
label in the “PreprocessedDrinkingDataLabels.csv”. However,
manually adding the image is not highly recommended.
• After every session, please email me the
“PreprocessedDrinkingDataLabels.csv” file. This can be used as a
backup, even if something wrong happens, such as loss of data
file or unexpected error within the program, I can always restore
the program from the latest restore point. I can always check the
file if there are any images left unannotated.
• The application will work best when it is used in forward direction,
so always try to use the labelling shortcuts for moving to next
image.
• Just in case few images are not annotated and skipped, the
application will resume from the last annotated image. This will
assert every image to be annotated.
Structure of how annotation program saves your work:
Every action you’ve done in the application such as navigating through
images either by annotating or skipping will be saved in the
“DrinkingDataLabels.csv”. This file is kind of a log file, which gives me
enough information of what happened in the last session. It’s easier to
fix the error.
“PreprocessedDrinkingDataLabels.csv” file is the main file which will
have the correct annotation, it’ll remove all the redundancies and keeps
the final annotation you’ve made. This file is very important. Each of
you’ll have a file, both the files will be merged and used for training the
model.
