Mission

An Open-Source Library to Make COCO Simpler

Microsoft COCO is a large-scale dataset and data annotation format. Today, COCO is a widely adopted standard for object detection, segmentation, and captioning.

COCOHelper makes working with the COCO format super-easy! You can use it to efficiently run complex operations such as statistical analysis and dataset arithmetic with just a few lines of code. Check our documentation and tutorials to learn how!
