Reading PASCAL VOC annotations in python

That's a quite easy solution for your problem:

This will return your box coordinates in a nested list [xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax] and the filenameOnce I struggled with bndbox tags which where mixed up (ymin, xmin,...) or any other strange combinations, so this code read the tags not only the position.

Finally I updated the code. Thanks to craq and Pritesh Gohil, you were absolutely right.

Hope it helps...

import xml.etree.ElementTree as ETdef read_content(xml_file: str):    tree = ET.parse(xml_file)    root = tree.getroot()    list_with_all_boxes = []    for boxes in root.iter('object'):        filename = root.find('filename').text        ymin, xmin, ymax, xmax = None, None, None, None        ymin = int(boxes.find("bndbox/ymin").text)        xmin = int(boxes.find("bndbox/xmin").text)        ymax = int(boxes.find("bndbox/ymax").text)        xmax = int(boxes.find("bndbox/xmax").text)        list_with_single_boxes = [xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax]        list_with_all_boxes.append(list_with_single_boxes)    return filename, list_with_all_boxesname, boxes = read_content("file.xml")
