to_ragged functionkeras_cv.bounding_box.to_ragged(bounding_boxes, sentinel=-1, dtype=tf.float32)
converts a Dense padded bounding box tf.Tensor to a tf.RaggedTensor.
Bounding boxes are ragged tensors in most use cases. Converting them to a dense tensor makes it easier to work with Tensorflow ecosystem. This function can be used to filter out the masked out bounding boxes by checking for padded sentinel value of the class_id axis of the bounding_boxes.
Example
bounding_boxes = {
"boxes": tf.constant([[2, 3, 4, 5], [0, 1, 2, 3]]),
"classes": tf.constant([[-1, 1]]),
}
bounding_boxes = bounding_box.to_ragged(bounding_boxes)
print(bounding_boxes)
# {
# "boxes": [[0, 1, 2, 3]],
# "classes": [[1]]
# }
Arguments
Returns
dictionary of tf.RaggedTensor or 'tf.Tensor' containing the filtered
bounding boxes.
