Clone Datasets and create your own version
Last updated
In Unitlab Annotate, datasets are released from projects, while projects can also be created from the released datasets—a process known as the cyclical workflow of Unitlab Annotate.
The cyclical workflow of Unitlab Annotate enables you to perform projects to datasets, datasets to projects, and so on, engaging you until your datasets reach a high-quality level. This workflow contains actions such as "Release," "Manage," and "Clone Datasets."
If you missed learning how to release and manage datasets, you can learn about them on the "Release Datasets" and "Manage Datasets" pages, respectively.
In Unitlab Annotate, cloning datasets is a part of the cyclical workflow and is used for two main purposes:
Cloning a Dataset: Clone other's public datasets and make your own version.
Restoring a Project: Restore a project with specific version of the dataset.
When you click the "Clone Dataset" button for the dataset you want to clone, it asks whether to clone with annotations or without annotations as follows:
If you prefer to clone a dataset with annotations, then both the annotations and data remain in the project creation. Otherwise, only the data (images) without annotations is available in the project creation.
When you click "confirm," a project creation process starts as shown in the screenshot below:
The project creation steps are the same as those we learned on the "Setup a Project" page. Learn how to create projects from scratch on this page.
📌Setup a ProjectEach new dataset release from your project creates a new version of the dataset. You can restore the project using any specified version of the dataset.
To restore a project, go to the dataset you want to restore as a project and select the preferred version and click "Clone Dataset" located in the upper right corner of the dataset page.
When you select a dataset version and click "Clone Dataset," the project creation begins with the selected version of annotations. The process for creating a project is standard and follows the same steps as those we learned in "Setup a Project."
