Dataset Configuration
Please create a TOML file for dataset configuration.
Image and video datasets are supported. The configuration file can include multiple datasets, either image or video datasets, with caption text files or metadata JSONL files.
Sample for Image Dataset with Caption Text Files
# resolution, caption_extension, batch_size, enable_bucket, bucket_no_upscale must be set in either general or datasets
# general configurations
[general]
resolution = [960, 544]
caption_extension = ".txt"
batch_size = 1
enable_bucket = true
bucket_no_upscale = false
[[datasets]]
image_directory = "/path/to/image_dir"
# other datasets can be added here. each dataset can have different configurations
Sample for Image Dataset with Metadata JSONL File
# resolution, batch_size, enable_bucket, bucket_no_upscale must be set in either general or datasets
# caption_extension is not required for metadata jsonl file
# cache_directory is required for each dataset with metadata jsonl file
# general configurations
[general]
resolution = [960, 544]
batch_size = 1
enable_bucket = true
bucket_no_upscale = false
[[datasets]]
image_jsonl_file = "/path/to/metadata.jsonl"
cache_directory = "/path/to/cache_directory"
# other datasets can be added here. each dataset can have different configurations
JSONL file format for metadata:
{"image_path": "/path/to/image1.jpg", "caption": "A caption for image1"}
{"image_path": "/path/to/image2.jpg", "caption": "A caption for image2"}
Sample for Video Dataset with Caption Text Files
# resolution, caption_extension, target_frames, frame_extraction, frame_stride, frame_sample, batch_size, enable_bucket, bucket_no_upscale must be set in either general or datasets
# general configurations
[general]
resolution = [960, 544]
caption_extension = ".txt"
batch_size = 1
enable_bucket = true
bucket_no_upscale = false
[[datasets]]
video_directory = "/path/to/video_dir"
target_frames = [1, 25, 45]
frame_extraction = "head"
# other datasets can be added here. each dataset can have different configurations
Sample for Video Dataset with Metadata JSONL File
# resolution, target_frames, frame_extraction, frame_stride, frame_sample, batch_size, enable_bucket, bucket_no_upscale must be set in either general or datasets
# caption_extension is not required for metadata jsonl file
# cache_directory is required for each dataset with metadata jsonl file
# general configurations
[general]
resolution = [960, 544]
batch_size = 1
enable_bucket = true
bucket_no_upscale = false
[[datasets]]
video_jsonl_file = "/path/to/metadata.jsonl"
target_frames = [1, 25, 45]
frame_extraction = "head"
cache_directory = "/path/to/cache_directory"
# same metadata jsonl file can be used for multiple datasets
[[datasets]]
video_jsonl_file = "/path/to/metadata.jsonl"
target_frames = [1]
frame_stride = 10
cache_directory = "/path/to/cache_directory"
# other datasets can be added here. each dataset can have different configurations
JSONL file format for metadata:
{"video_path": "/path/to/video1.mp4", "caption": "A caption for video1"}
{"video_path": "/path/to/video2.mp4", "caption": "A caption for video2"}
fame_extraction Options
head
: Extract the first N frames from the video.chunk
: Extract frames by splitting the video into chunks of N frames.slide
: Extract frames from the video with a stride offrame_stride
.uniform
: Extractframe_sample
samples uniformly from the video.
For example, consider a video with 40 frames. The following diagrams illustrate each extraction:
Original Video, 40 frames: x = frame, o = no frame
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
head, target_frames = [1, 13, 25] -> extract head frames:
xooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooo
chunk, target_frames = [13, 25] -> extract frames by splitting into chunks, into 13 and 25 frames:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxoooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooo
NOTE: Please do not include 1 in target_frames if you are using the frame_extraction "chunk". It will make the all frames to be extracted.
slide, target_frames = [1, 13, 25], frame_stride = 10 -> extract N frames with a stride of 10:
xooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooxooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooxooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooxooooooooo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooo
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooo
uniform, target_frames =[1, 13, 25], frame_sample = 4 -> extract `frame_sample` samples uniformly, N frames each:
xooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooxoooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooooxoooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooox
xxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxoooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooooooooooooo
oooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxoooooooooo
ooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxooooo
oooooooooooooooxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
