Keras-yolo3: how to deal with the negative samples

[xmaj2008]

in the official version of darknet ,the author give the following solution to do with the negative samples:

desirable that your training dataset include images with non-labeled objects that you do not want to detect - negative samples without bounded box (empty .txt files) - use as many images of negative samples as there are images with objects

if i wanna use the negative samples with this keras-version like the darknet, how can i achieve it.

Anyone?

Do you mean put the negative samples into the annotation file?(txt file) and without boxes or classes?

I think that's what the OP meant. At least that's what brought me here - wanting to add pictures with none of my classes on them to the training set. @xmaj2008 @michalkowalski94 @YourGc Have any of you figured out how to do that?

Just add Image name into annotation file but with no coordinates or labels

Hi @YourGc , I was wondering how to add Image name into the txt file? Since for yolo, the annotation is a txt file, could you give me some more suggestions?
