MixUp transform in Albumentations

In that transform we create weighted average of original and reference images. Transform also supports global_labels and masks

Python
import random

import cv2
from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
from pathlib import Path
import numpy as np
import cv2

import albumentations as A

Define a function to visualize an image

Python
def visualize(image):
    plt.figure(figsize=(10, 5))
    plt.axis('off')
    plt.imshow(image)
Python
def load_rgb(image_path):
    image = cv2.imread(image_path)
    return cv2.cvtColor(image, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)

Load the image from the disk

Python
img_path = "../images/woman.jpeg"
img = load_rgb(img_path)
Python
class_id = 0

Visualize the original image

Python
visualize(img)

Mixup transform

To use transform we need to define reference data that could be any sequence or generator.

We also need to defined read_fn that transforms items from reference_data to dictionaries with keys: image, and optional global_label, mask.

Python
reference_data = [{
    "image_path": "../images/cat1.jpeg", 
    "class_id": 1},
                  {"image_path": "../images/tiger.jpeg", 
    "class_id": 2}]
Python
def int_to_onehot(value, num_classes):
    """Convert an array of integers to one-hot representation.

    Args:
        values (np.ndarray): Array of integers to be converted.
        num_classes (int): Total number of classes, determines the length of one-hot vectors.

    Returns:
        np.ndarray: One-hot encoded representation of `values`.
    """
    # Initialize the one-hot encoded array of shape (num_classes,)
    one_hot = np.zeros(num_classes, dtype=int)

    # Set the appropriate index to one
    one_hot[value] = 1

    return one_hot
Python
NUM_CLASSES = 5
Python
target_height = 2500
target_width = 1800
Python
# We can process data as we want, including application of augmentations transform.

reference_aug = A.Compose([A.RandomCrop(width=target_width, height=target_height, p=1)], p=1)
Python
def read_fn(item):
    image = load_rgb(item["image_path"])

    transformed_image = reference_aug(image=image)["image"]

    global_label = int_to_onehot(item["class_id"], NUM_CLASSES)
    return {
        "image": transformed_image,
        "global_label": global_label
    }

Show reference images

Python
visualize(read_fn(reference_data[0])["image"])

Python
visualize(read_fn(reference_data[1])["image"])
