## AnnotateX

**AnnotateX** is a powerful and user-friendly image annotation tool designed to streamline the process of preparing datasets for computer vision projects. It offers a range of features that facilitate the annotation of images, making it an ideal choice for researchers, developers, and data scientists working on machine learning and deep learning tasks.

### Features

- **Multi-Label Annotation**: Easily annotate images with multiple labels for complex object detection tasks.
- **Polygonal Annotation**: Define precise regions of interest with polygonal shapes for segmentation tasks.
- **Bounding Box**: Draw bounding boxes around objects for object detection and localization.
- **Image Classification**: Label entire images for classification tasks.
- **Customizable Categories**: Add, edit, or remove annotation categories to fit your specific dataset needs.
- **Batch Processing**: Annotate multiple images in one go, saving time and effort.
- **Data Export**: Export annotations in popular formats like JSON, XML (Pascal VOC), and COCO.
- **User-Friendly Interface**: Intuitive UI/UX design for a seamless annotation experience.
