What is a custom object detection dataset?
A custom object detection dataset is a collection of images labeled with bounding boxes and class names for specific objects you want a model to recognize. It is tailored to your unique needs, not a general dataset.Click to reveal answer

Why do we need bounding boxes in object detection datasets?
Bounding boxes show exactly where an object is in an image by drawing a rectangle around it. This helps the model learn to find and locate objects, not just recognize them.

Name two common formats for storing object detection annotations.
Two common formats are Pascal VOC (XML files) and COCO (JSON files). Both store bounding box coordinates and class labels but in different structures.Click to reveal answer

What is the role of class labels in a custom object detection dataset?Class labels tell the model what type of object is inside each bounding box, like 'cat' or 'car'. They help the model learn to distinguish between different objects.Click to reveal answer

How can data augmentation help when creating a custom object detection dataset?
Data augmentation creates new images by changing existing ones (like flipping or rotating). This increases dataset size and variety, helping the model learn better and avoid overfitting.

What does a bounding box in object detection represent?
✗ Incorrect
Bounding boxes mark the exact location of objects in images for detection.
Which file format is commonly used for object detection annotations?
✗ Incorrect
Pascal VOC uses XML files to store bounding boxes and labels.
Why is labeling images important in a custom object detection dataset?
✗ Incorrect
Labels teach the model which objects to find and recognize.
What is a benefit of data augmentation in object detection datasets?
✗ Incorrect
Augmentation creates more varied images to help the model learn better.
Which of these is NOT part of a typical object detection annotation?
✗ Incorrect
Image resolution is metadata, not part of the annotation itself.
