Syntax

gtLabel = selectLabelsBySignalType(gTruth,signalTypes)

Description

example

gtLabel = selectLabelsBySignalType(gTruth,signalTypes) selects labels of the signal types specified by signalTypes from a groundTruthMultisignal object, gTruth. The function returns a corresponding groundTruthMultisignal object, gtLabel, that contains only the selected labels. If gTruth is a vector of groundTruthMultisignal objects, then the function returns a vector of corresponding groundTruthMultisignal objects that contain only the selected labels.

Open Script

Select ground truth labels from a groundTruthMultisignal object by specifying a signal type.

Load a groundTruthMultisignal object containing ROI and scene label data for a video and corresponding lidar point cloud sequence. The helper function used to load this object is attached to the example as a supporting file.

gTruth = helperLoadGTruthVideoLidar;

Inspect the label definitions. The object contains definitions for image, point cloud, and time signals.

Inspect the ROI labels. The object contains labels for the lidar point cloud sequence and the video.

  ROILabelData with properties:

                lidarSequence: [34x2 timetable]
    video_01_city_c2s_fcw_10s: [204x2 timetable]

Create a new groundTruthMultisignal object that contains labels for only point cloud signals.

signalTypes = vision.labeler.loading.SignalType.PointCloud;
gtLabel = selectLabelsBySignalType(gTruth,signalTypes);

For the original and new objects, inspect the first five rows of label data for the lidar point cloud sequence. Because lidar signals are of type PointCloud, the new object contains the same label data for the lidar sequence as the original object.

lidarLabels = gTruth.ROILabelData.lidarSequence;
lidarLabelsSelection = gtLabel.ROILabelData.lidarSequence;

numrows = 5;

For the original and new objects, inspect the first five rows of label data for the video. Because video signals are of type Image, the new object contains no label data for the video.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Multisignal ground truth data, specified as a groundTruthMultisignal object or vector of groundTruthMultisignal objects.

Signal types, specified as a vision.labeler.loading.SignalType enumeration or vector of vision.labeler.loading.SignalType enumerations.

To view all signal types in a groundTruthMultisignal object, gTruth, enter this command at the MATLAB® command prompt.

unique(gTruth.LabelDefinitions.SignalType)

Example: vision.labeler.loading.SignalType.Image

Example: [vision.labeler.loading.SignalType.Image vision.labeler.loading.SignalType.PointCloud]

Output Arguments

collapse all

Ground truth with only the selected labels, returned as a groundTruthMultisignal object or vector of groundTruthMultisignal objects.

Each groundTruthMultisignal object in gtLabel corresponds to a groundTruthMultisignal object in the gTruth input. The returned objects contain only the labels that are of the signal types specified by the signalTypes input.

Limitations

  • Selecting sublabels by signal type is not supported.
