# mtg face objects dataset


*This dataset does NOT contian ALL the highres card scan images only about 11,700 in the form of a zip file, more than enough for object classifcation*

This dataset contains high-resolution annotations for Magic: The Gathering card scans. The annotations were created using LabelImg and include raw XML labels in labellmg PascalVoc. The dataset is organized into training and validation portions, enabling custom object detection model training. Around 90 labeled images, and 20 extra for validation.

```

- **annotations/**: Contains XML files used for training.
- **control_annotations/**: Contains XML files used as the validation set.
- **labels/**: Contains the converted YOLO-format label files, split into `train` and `val` directories.


## Usage

- Use the **annotations** and **control_annotations** folders for generating training and validation labels.
- The **labels** folder holds the final YOLO-format text files required for training an object detection model with yolo11.
- For the pre-trained model, visit the [MTG Card Segmentation YOLO11 model page](https://huggingface.co/JakeTurner616/mtg-card-segmentation-yolo11).
