Create the plastics dataset

Create and name the dataset

  1. Open Datasets.
  2. Select New dataset.
  3. Rename the new dataset to Nylon and Belt.

Assign the image

  1. Open the dataset's Images tab.
  2. Under Available data, select the uploaded image.
  3. Set Data assignment method to Automatic.
  4. Select Add to bucket > Training & Validation.
  5. Confirm that the Plastics labels set is assigned. Only a label set with Finalized status can be used.

Automatic assignment splits eligible labeled data between training and validation according to the displayed Data split control.

This one-image Automatic split teaches the product workflow; it is not an independent generalization benchmark. With a Pixel split, correlated pixels from the same labels and image can enter both buckets. For a scientific evaluation, use separate images or acquisitions and Manual assignment.

Configure the draft

On Overview:

  1. Set Classes to Belt and Nylon.
  2. Set Data level processed to Reflectance.
  3. Select Wavelengths and choose the center-wavelength set for the uploaded image.
  4. Review the sampling and split settings.

Finalize

Select Finalize. If the action is disabled or validation fails, check the classes, wavelengths, processing level, data assignment, and finalized label-set assignment.

After finalization, review the dataset metrics and average signatures. Distinct-looking signatures can be a useful quality check, but they do not by themselves prove that the labels or future model are correct.

Next: Train the model.
