The current web interface is built with the following main features.\n- Perform image searches under a given keyword, selectively save a subset of all results. Searching using the flickr interface is currently supported.\n- Support annotation of saved images.\n\n## The Datasets\n\n- COCO Africa Masks (To be released soon): A dataset of African masks to foster experiments in the intersection of African Art and AI.\nEarly results training an unconditional GAN (DCGAN) on a curated dataset of African masks (10k) are shown below.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"images/r1.png\" width=\"33.3%\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"images/s1.png\" width=\"33.3%\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"images/s2.png\" width=\"33.3%\"\u003e\n\n## Trained Models\nAs the project progresses, trained models will be made available  for tasks trained on aspects of the COCO-Africa dataset.\n\n## Setup\n\nAdd your flickr and google client app credentials in the `utils/credentials_default.py` file and then rename it to `credentials.py`\n\n```shell\ncd utils\ncp credentials_default.py credentials.py   #rename file\n```\n\n## Running\n\n```\npython webserver.py\n```\n\n\n\n## Citing this tutorial\n\nIf you'd like to cite this work, use the below.\n\nVictor Dibia, COCO-AFRICA : A Curation Tool and Dataset of Common Objects in the Context of Africa (2018), GitHub repository, https://github.com/victordibia/coco-africa\n```bib\n@misc{CocoAfricaDibia2018,\n  author = {Victor, Dibia},\n  title = {COCO-AFRICA : A Curation Tool and Dataset of Common Objects in the Context of Africa},\n  year = {2018},\n  publisher = {GitHub},\n  journal = {2018 Conference on Neural Information Processing, 2nd Black in AI Workshop},\n  howpublished = {\\url{https://github.com/victordibia/coco-africa}} \n}","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvictordibia%2Fcocoafrica","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fvictordibia%2Fcocoafrica","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fvictordibia%2Fcocoafrica/lists"}
