v0.3.1

Bugfix for coco_stats by @Lplenka (#15)

v0.3.0

Changes introduced:

1. combine has been renamed to merge
2. Support for merging annotations only.

Deprecated features:

Post v0.3.0, converter functionality will not be supported. This was motivated by two reasons:

1. There are too many conversion formats. Trying to include even the most popular ones makes the project unwieldy. Better to use one of the readily available scripts online.
2. Until now, the repository only supported TFRecord. Tensorflow is a large library and it does not make sense for it to be a project requirement when it's only used for a singular task of converting to TFRecord.

v0.2.0

New Features:

1. Generate anchors from the dataset using K-means.
2. Generate segmentation masks from dataset.

Modifications:

1. Modified category removal to accept a list of categories as opposed to entering categories one after the other.

v0.1.0

Helper for dealing with MS COCO annotations. Currently supports the following functionalities:

1. Merge datasets.
2. Remove specific category from dataset.
3. Generate annotations statistics - distribution of object areas and category distribution
4. Annotation visualiser for viewing the entire dataset.
5. Converter for converting annotations to TFRecord format
