Hi,

I was successfully able to annotate a set of images using prodigy, and I was wondering if there is a way to train the images through prodigy in the same way that I can train NER.

Thanks!

Prodigy doesn't include training recipes for computer vision – there are many different options and frameworks to choose from, so you'd have to decide what you want to use (PyTorch, TensorFlow etc.) and how you want to implement your model. For the NLP tasks, it's easier for us to provide one single training command that calls into spaCy, and it's also easier for us to recommend the best defaults to use. For computer vision, that's a lot less clear, so you'd have to bring your own implementation.

> Hi! Prodigy itself doesn't ship with a built-in recipe for training a computer vision model. There are many different implementations and frameworks, so you'd have to pick the type of model you want to use. How the training works in detail depends on the framework (PyTorch, TensorFlow etc.) and model architecture/implementation. You can see an example of the data format produced by Prodigy's image\_manual recipe here: [https://prodi.gy/docs/api-interfaces#image\_manual](https://prodi.gy/docs/api-interfaces#image_manual) This should make it easy to …
