Labelme2YOLO

Labelme2YOLO is a powerful tool for converting LabelMe's JSON format to YOLOv5 dataset format. This tool can also be used for YOLOv5/YOLOv8 segmentation datasets, if you have already made your segmentation dataset with LabelMe, it is easy to use this tool to help convert to YOLO format dataset.

New Features

• export data as yolo polygon annotation (for YOLOv5 & YOLOV8 segmentation)
• Now you can choose the output format of the label text. The two available alternatives are polygon and bounding box (bbox).

Installation

pip install labelme2yolo

Arguments

--json_dir LabelMe JSON files folder path.

--val_size (Optional) Validation dataset size, for example 0.2 means 20% for validation.

--test_size (Optional) Test dataset size, for example 0.1 means 10% for Test.

--json_name (Optional) Convert single LabelMe JSON file.

--output_format (Optional) The output format of label.

--label_list (Optional) The pre-assigned category labels.

How to Use

1. Converting JSON files and splitting training, validation datasets

You may need to place all LabelMe JSON files under labelme_json_dir and then run the following command:

labelme2yolo --json_dir /path/to/labelme_json_dir/

This tool will generate dataset labels and images with YOLO format in different folders, such as

/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/labels/train/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/labels/val/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/images/train/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/images/val/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/dataset.yaml

2. Converting JSON files and splitting training, validation, and test datasets with --val_size and --test_size

You may need to place all LabelMe JSON files under labelme_json_dir and then run the following command:

labelme2yolo --json_dir /path/to/labelme_json_dir/ --val_size 0.15 --test_size 0.15

This tool will generate dataset labels and images with YOLO format in different folders, such as

/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/labels/train/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/labels/test/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/labels/val/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/images/train/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/images/test/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/images/val/
/path/to/labelme_json_dir/YOLODataset/dataset.yaml
