Converting .xml files to .txt files
YOLO v3 needs an annotation file to be saved as a .txt file and not as a .xml file. This section describes how to convert and arrange a .txt file for input to the model. There are many tools available for such a conversion—we will mention two tools here:
- RectLabel: This has a built-in converter to convert a .xml file to a .txt file.
- The command-line xmltotxt tool: You can find this tool at the https://github.com/Isabek/XmlToTxt GitHub page.
The output of this process will be a directory containing the .jpg, .xml, and .txt files. Every image .jpg file will have a corresponding .xml and .txt file. You can delete the .xml file from the directory as we won't need these anymore.
