# COCO-Africa: A Curation Tool and Dataset of Common Objects in the Context of Africa
> Project is still in development **
The Coco Africa project is geared towards creating an easy to use data collection tool to support the
curation of interesting datasets (current focus on under-represented objects and contexts in Africa).
## The Data Collection Tool
This repo mainly contains code for the data collection interface(s) being used to support the curation of the COCO-Africa dataset. The current web interface is built with the following main features.
- Perform image searches under a given keyword, selectively save a subset of all results. Searching using the flickr interface is currently supported.
- Support annotation of saved images.
## The Datasets
- COCO Africa Masks (To be released soon): A dataset of African masks to foster experiments in the intersection of African Art and AI.
Early results training an unconditional GAN (DCGAN) on a curated dataset of African masks (10k) are shown below.
## Trained Models
As the project progresses, trained models will be made available for tasks trained on aspects of the COCO-Africa dataset.
## Setup
Add your flickr and google client app credentials in the `utils/credentials_default.py` file and then rename it to `credentials.py`
```shell
cd utils
cp credentials_default.py credentials.py #rename file
```
## Running
```
python webserver.py
```
