Manifest file
You can create a dataset using an Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth format manifest file. You
can use the manifest file from an Amazon SageMaker Ground Truth job. If your images and labels aren't in the format of a SageMaker Ground Truth manifest
file, you can create a SageMaker format manifest file and use it to import your labeled images.
Creating a dataset with a SageMaker Ground Truth manifest file (Console)
The following procedure shows you how to create a dataset by using a SageMaker Ground Truth format manifest file.
Create a manifest file for your training dataset by doing one of the following:
If you want to create a test dataset, repeat step 1 to create the test dataset.
Open the Amazon Rekognition console at
https://console.aws.amazon.com/rekognition/.
Choose Use Custom Labels.
Choose Get started.
In the left navigation pane, choose Projects.
In the Projects page, choose the project to which you want to add a dataset.
The details page for your project is displayed.
Choose Create dataset. The Create dataset page is
shown.
In Starting configuration, choose either Start with a single dataset
or Start with a training dataset. To create a higher quality model, we recommend starting with separate
training and test datasets.
- Single dataset
-
-
In the Training dataset details
section, choose Import images labeled by SageMaker Ground Truth.
In .manifest file location enter the location of the manifest file that you created in step 1.
Choose Create Dataset. The datasets page for your project opens.
- Separate training and test datasets
-
-
In the Training dataset details
section, choose Import images labeled by SageMaker Ground Truth.
In .manifest file location enter the location of the training dataset manifest file you created in step 1.
-
In the Test dataset details
section, choose Import images labeled by SageMaker Ground Truth.
Your training and test datasets can have different
image sources.
In .manifest file location enter the location of the test dataset manifest file you created in step 1.
Choose Create Datasets. The datasets page for your project opens.
-
If you need to add or change labels, do Labeling images.
Follow the steps in Training a model (Console) to train your model.
Creating a dataset with a SageMaker Ground Truth manifest file (SDK)
The following procedure shows you how to create training or test datasets from a manifest file by using the CreateDataset API.
You can use an existing manifest file, such as the output from an SageMaker Ground Truth job, or
create your own manifest file.
-
If you haven't already done so, install and configure the AWS CLI and the AWS SDKs. For more information, see
Step 4: Set up the AWS CLI and AWS SDKs.
Create a manifest file for your training dataset by doing one of the following:
If you want to create a test dataset, repeat step 2 to create the test dataset.
Use the following example code to create the training and test dataset.
- AWS CLI
-
Use the following code to create a dataset. Replace the following:
project_arn — the ARN of the project that you want to add the test dataset to.
type — the type of dataset that you want to create (TRAIN or TEST)
bucket — the bucket that contains the manifest file for the dataset.
manifest_file — the path and file name of the manifest file.
aws rekognition create-dataset --project-arn project_arn \
--dataset-type type \
--dataset-source '{ "GroundTruthManifest": { "S3Object": { "Bucket": "bucket", "Name": "manifest_file" } } }' \
--profile custom-labels-access
- Python
-
Use the following values to create a dataset. Supply the following command line parameters:
project_arn — the ARN of the project that you want to add the test dataset to.
dataset_type — the type of dataset that you want to create (train or test).
bucket — the bucket that contains the manifest file for the dataset.
manifest_file — the path and file name of the manifest file.
