Summary

Polygon tracking meticulously outlines objects with a series of interconnected vertices, offering precision and flexibility unparalleled in video annotation, whereas Bitmask tracking simplifies the annotation process by representing object masks as binary images, streamlining efficiency without compromising clarity. Polygon and Bitmask tracking have significantly reduced annotation time while improving accuracy, making them essential for building labeled training data at scale and speed. These techniques are enhancing the process of video annotation, paving the way for more accurate and efficient machine learning models, with applications in object detection and tracking, semantic segmentation, interactive video editing, scene understanding, and automation.
