如何在pytorch对象检测中添加转换

Question

I'm new to PyTorch & going through the PyTorch object detection documentation tutorial pytorch docx . At their collab version, I made the below changes to add some transformation techniques.

1. First change to the __getitem__ method of class PennFudanDataset(torch.utils.data.Dataset)

if self.transforms is not None:
   img = self.transforms(img)     
   target = T.ToTensor()(target)
   return img, target

In actual documentation it is 
if self.transforms is not None:
   img, target = self.transforms(img, target)  

Secondly, at the get_transform(train) function.

def get_transform(train):
  if train:
    transformed = T.Compose([             
           T.ToTensor(),
           T.GaussianBlur(kernel_size=5, sigma=(0.1, 2.0)),
          T.ColorJitter(brightness=[0.1, 0.2], contrast=[0.1, 0.2], saturation=[0, 0.2], hue=[0,0.5])
    ])
    return transformed

  else:
    return T.ToTensor()

**In the documentation it is-** 
def get_transform(train):
    transforms = []
    transforms.append(T.ToTensor())
    if train:
        transforms.append(T.RandomHorizontalFlip(0.5))
    return T.Compose(transforms)

While implementing the code, I'm getting the below error. I'm not able to get what I',m doing wrong.

TypeError: Caught TypeError in DataLoader worker process 0.

    raise TypeError('pic should be PIL Image or ndarray. Got {}'.format(type(pic)))
TypeError: pic should be PIL Image or ndarray. Got <class 'dict'>

Answer 1

I believe the Pytorch transforms only work on images (PIL images or np arrays in this case) and not labels (which are dicts according to the trace). As such, I don't think you need to "tensorify" the labels as in this line target = T.ToTensor()(target) in the __getitem__ function.
