Creating a Project

Procedure

1. Log in to the ModelArts management console. In the left navigation pane, choose ExeML. The ExeML page is displayed.
2. Click Create Project in the box of your desired project. The page for creating an ExeML project is displayed.
3. On the displayed page, set the parameters by referring to Table 1.

   Table 1 Parameters

   Parameter	Description
   Name	Name of an ExeML project Enter a maximum of 32 characters. Only digits, letters, underscores (_), and hyphens (-) are allowed. This parameter is mandatory. The name must start with a letter.
   Description	Brief description of a project
   Dataset Source	You can create a dataset or specify an existing dataset. Create: Configure parameters such as Dataset Name, Input Dataset Path, Output Dataset Path, and Label Set. Specify: Select a dataset of the same type from ModelArts Data Management to create an ExeML project. Only datasets of the same type are displayed in the Dataset Name drop-down list.
   Dataset Name	If you select Create for Dataset Source, enter a dataset name based on required rules in the text box on the right. If you select Specify for Dataset Source, select one from available datasets of the same type under the current account displayed in the drop-down list.
   Input Dataset Path	Select the OBS path to the input dataset. For details about dataset input specifications, see Preparing Data. Except the files and folders described in Preparing Data > Requirements for Files Uploaded to OBS, no other files or folders can be saved in the training data path. Otherwise, an error will be reported. Do not modify the files in the training data path.
   Output Dataset Path	Select the OBS path for storing the output dataset. NOTE: The output dataset path cannot be the same as the input dataset path or cannot be the subdirectory of the input dataset path. It is a good practice to select an empty directory in Output Dataset Path.
   Label Set	Label Name: Enter a label name. The label name can contain only Chinese characters, letters, digits, underscores (_), and hyphens (-), which contains 1 to 64 characters. Add Label: Click Add Label to add one or more labels. Set the label color: You need to set label colors for object detection datasets, but you do not need to set label colors for image classification datasets. Select a color from the color palette on the right of a label, or enter the hexadecimal color code to set the color.

4. Click Create Project. The system displays a message indicating that the project has been created. Then, the Label Data tab page is displayed. Alternatively, view the created project on the ExeML page and click the project name to go to the Label Data page.
