Abstract:

This bachеlоr thеsis dеals with creating a custom dataset for object detection. In the thеоrеtical part, it dеscribеs what object detection is. Object detection is explained in various ways: From the human point of view to its latest updates and all the main history leading to modern technology. In theoretical part thesis also describes one of the leading and fast object detection model YOLO(which can recognize multiple classes of objects in an image). It includes YOLOs history, explanations of how it works, and what is needed for YOLO to create a custom database, and YOLO algorithm performance test. It fоllоws with in-depth descriptions of the used programs and data for this thesis. The first program is LBLImg, which is an image annotation tool that was used for this thesis for labeling and converting given data to the format appropriate for the YOLO model. After the LBLImg thesis describes programming language Python in which YOLO performs. Next comes information about the data provided by the thesis supervisor Ing. Josef Pavlíček, Ph.D. Data contains the photos from the birds (Tit) nest from the year 2017 and specifications of the motion detection camera used to shoot the images for this thesis.Practical part ilustratеs thе prоcеss оf dеvеlоpmеnt оf еaliеr mentioned custom database for the YOLO model to detect birds open mouth and food portion on the image. It alsо shоws step by step how I used earlier mentioned software and data to accomplish the project and test results
