# NRTK EXPLORER
NRTK Explorer is a web application for exploring image datasets. It provides
insights of a image dataset in [COCO][3] format and it evaluate image
transformation and perturbation resilience of object recognition DL models. It
is built using [trame][1] by the [kitware][2] team.

## Features
- Explore image datasets in COCO format.
- Apply parametrized image degradation (such as blur) to the images.
- Benchmark dataset resilience with a differential PCA|UMAP analysis on the
embeddings of the images and their transformations.
- Evaluate object detection DL models in both the source images and its
transformations.
- When possible it will attempt to utilize the user GPU as much as possible to
speedup its computations.
## Installing
Install it from pypi:
```bash
pip install nrtk-explorer
```
## Usage
Explore Hugging Face hosted [dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/rafaelpadilla/coco2017):
```bash
nrtk-explorer --dataset rafaelpadilla/coco2017
```
Compare inference results for Hugging Face hosted models:
```bash
nrtk-explorer --dataset cppe-5 --models qubvel-hf/detr-resnet-50-finetuned-10k-cppe5 ashaduzzaman/detr_finetuned_cppe5
```
2 COCO format datasets are available at: https://github.com/vicentebolea/nrtk_explorer_datasets/
```bash
git clone https://github.com/vicentebolea/nrtk_explorer_datasets.git
nrtk-explorer --dataset ./nrtk_explorer_datasets/coco-od-2017/mini_val2017.json ./nrtk_explorer_datasets/OIRDS_v1_0/oirds.json
```
## CLI flags and options
- `--dataset` specify the path to a [COCO dataset](https://roboflow.com/formats/coco-json) JSON file,
a [Hugging Face dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets?task_categories=task_categories:object-detection) repository name,
or a directory loadable by the [Dataset](https://huggingface.co/docs/datasets/index) library.
You can specify multiple datasets using a space as the
separator. Example: `nrtk-explorer --dataset ../foo-dir/coco.json cppe-5`
- `--repository` Specify an existing directory where exported datasets will be saved to and loaded from.
- `--download` Cache Hugging Face Hub datasets locally instead of streaming them.
When datasets are streamed, nrtk-explorer limits the number of loaded images.
- `--models` specify the Hugging Face Hub [object detection](https://huggingface.co/models?pipeline_tag=object-detection&library=transformers&sort=trending)
repository name or a directory loadable by the [Transformers](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/index) library. Load multiple models using space as the separator.
Example: `nrtk-explorer --models hustvl/yolos-tiny facebook/detr-resnet-50`
- `-h|--help` show the help for the command line options. nrtk-explorer inherits the trame
command line options and flags.

## Contribute to NRTK_EXPLORER
