      Article summary

      This article applies to these versions of LandingLens:

      LandingLensLandingLens on Snowflake
      ✓✓ (see exceptions below)

      LandingLens offers these project types to help you label your images:

      • Object Detection
      • Classification
      • Segmentation
      • Visual Prompting (not available in LandingLens on Snowflake)
      Select a Project Type When You Create a Project

      Object Detection

      Use to identify one or more objects in an image. Object Detection can be used to identify one or more objects within an image. Object Detection trains based on the labeled pixels (pixels inside the bounding box).

      For more information, go to Object Detection.

      Classification

      Use to categorize (or "classify") the content of an image. Classification identifies the image as a whole. Classification trains based on all pixels in an image.

      For more information, go to Classification.

      Segmentation

      Use to specify exact pixels to identify one or more regions within an image.

      For more information, go to Segmentation.

      Visual Prompting

      Use to identify objects or areas in an image. You only need to label a few small areas for the model to detect the whole object or area.

      For more information, go to Visual Prompting.

      Note:
      Visual Prompting is not available in LandingLens on Snowflake.
      Caution:
      Visual Prompting is in Beta. It might not function as well as our other production-ready features.

      When to Use Each Project Type

      Each Project Type is also designed for different use cases:

      Project TypeWhen to UseExamples
      Object Detection
      • You want to identify multiple objects in an image.
      • You want to identify one object in an image.
      		Identify multiple objects in an image.
      • Scratches and missing parts on a laptop
      • Apples and bananas
      Identify one object in an image.
      • Deer
      • Person
      • License plate frame
      Classification
      • You want to identify all the content within an image.
      • You want to distinguish one object type from another.
      		Identify all content within an image.
      • Image of a city
      • Image of a basketball
      Distinguish one object type from another. 
      • Screws vs. nails
      • Cats vs. dogs
      Segmentation
      • You need to be precise.
      • You want to identify one or more regions in an image.
      • Identify cracks on computer monitors 
      Visual Prompting
      • You want to create a model quickly. 
      • You want to identify all regions in an image.
      • You are not using LandingLens on Snowflake.
      		Identify objects with distinct textures.
      • Animals
      • Sand vs. rocks on a beach
      Identify objects that have irregular shapes.
