I am augmenting my image data-set which also contains key-points. For this reason I am using imgaug library. Following is the augmentation code:

kps = KeypointsOnImage(__keypoints, shape=_image.shape)

seq = iaa.Sequential([
iaa.Affine(
    scale={"x": (0.8, 1.2), "y": (0.8, 1.2)}, # scale images to 80-120% of their size, individually per axis
    translate_percent={"x": (-0.2, 0.2), "y": (-0.2, 0.2)}, # translate by -20 to +20 percent (per axis)
    rotate=(-90, 90), # rotate by -45 to +45 degrees
    order=[0, 1], # use nearest neighbour or bilinear interpolation (fast)
    cval=(0, 255),
),
iaa.Fliplr(0.5),
], random_order=True)


# Augment keypoints and images.
image_aug, kps_aug = seq(image = _image, keypoints=kps)

But while reviewing the augmented images I found following problems:

  • Some of the images doesn't come with any key-points.
  • In some augmented images key-points are going outside of images although I kept checks to block those augmented outputs to be saved where the key-points are not inside the images.

But the weird thing is that the same code when I run it on my PC it runs completely okay. But when I run it on Google-Colab it creates these unwanted outputs. Why this is happening?

I found it was a version problem. In Colab the library imgaug comes with a version 0.2.9 but this version produces these undesired outputs. So I uninstalled this existing version and installed the version 0.4.0. Although while installation it showed the following error:

ERROR: albumentations 0.1.12 has requirement imgaug<0.2.7,>=0.2.5, but you'll have imgaug 0.4.0 which is incompatible.

But I ignored it and for me it worked fine. Following is the code to uninstall the existing version and to install the desired one:

!pip uninstall imgaug
!pip install imgaug==0.4.0

I installed the version 0.4.0 because I was working with this version on my local PC as well and it worked for me with no problem.

Colab comes with the imgaug version 0.2.9 but this version does not match with the albumentations requirements. I faced the same issue, used this command to rectify the error:

!pip uninstall imgaug && pip uninstall albumentations && pip install git+https://github.com/aleju/imgaug.git
