Watson Visual recognition API

I am familiar with watson API key visual recognition :

visual_recognition = VisualRecognitionV3('2016-05-20', api_key=param)

with param as my api key.

this Api Call is nice to recognize forms. But Is it possible to get the positions of the elements that are recognized ? I do not see it in the API documentation. I see this is possible for face detection, but let say, I have a dog on my picture, how can I have the postions of this dogs ?

Here is the API reference

Solution

  • The service works by using a collection of classifiers, each classifier is a single tag only and must be trained with it's own sets of positive and negative images. Try to create smaller sub-images out of one image containing multiple entities.

    See one video to verify how it works.
