Dog-Pose Dataset

导言

The Ultralytics Dog-pose dataset is a high-quality and extensive dataset specifically curated for dog keypoint estimation. With 6,773 training images and 1,703 test images, this dataset provides a solid foundation for training robust pose estimation models. Each annotated image includes 24 keypoints with 3 dimensions per keypoint (x, y, visibility), making it a valuable resource for advanced research and development in computer vision.

This dataset is intended for use with Ultralytics HUB and YOLO11.

数据集 YAML

A YAML (Yet Another Markup Language) file is used to define the dataset configuration. It includes paths, keypoint details, and other relevant information. In the case of the Dog-pose dataset, The dog-pose.yaml is available at https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/cfg/datasets/dog-pose.yaml.

使用方法

To train a YOLO11n-pose model on the Dog-pose dataset for 100 epochs with an image size of 640, you can use the following code snippets. For a comprehensive list of available arguments, refer to the model Training page.

from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load a model
model = YOLO("yolo11n-pose.pt")  # load a pretrained model (recommended for training)

# Train the model
results = model.train(data="dog-pose.yaml", epochs=100, imgsz=640)

# Start training from a pretrained *.pt model
yolo pose train data=dog-pose.yaml model=yolo11n-pose.pt epochs=100 imgsz=640

图片和注释示例

Here are some examples of images from the Dog-pose dataset, along with their corresponding annotations:

• 镶嵌图像：该图像展示了由马赛克数据集图像组成的训练批次。马赛克是一种在训练过程中使用的技术，可将多幅图像合并为单幅图像，以增加每个训练批次中物体和场景的多样性。这有助于提高模型对不同物体尺寸、长宽比和环境的泛化能力。

The example showcases the variety and complexity of the images in the Dog-pose dataset and the benefits of using mosaicing during the training process.

How does mosaicing benefit the YOLO11 training process using the Dog-pose dataset?

Mosaicing, as illustrated in the sample images from the Dog-pose dataset, merges multiple images into a single composite, enriching the diversity of objects and scenes in each training batch. This approach enhances the model's capacity to generalize across different object sizes, aspect ratios, and contexts, leading to improved performance. For example images, refer to the Sample Images and Annotations section.

Where can I find the Dog-pose dataset YAML file and how do I use it?

The Dog-pose dataset YAML file can be found here. This file defines the dataset configuration, including paths, classes, and other relevant information. Use this file with the YOLO11 training scripts as mentioned in the Train Example section.
