# Introduction
This dataset aims to facilitate the identification and annotation of weeds and plants commonly found in agricultural settings. The goal is to accurately detect and classify different plant types to aid in automated farming practices. The classes in this dataset are:

- Billygoat weed: Known for its broad leaves and clustered growth.
- Carrots: Recognizable by their feathery leaf texture.
- Cynodon Dactylon: A type of grass with a distinctive runner stem.
- Dandelion: Characterized by its rosette leaf arrangement.
- Large Crabgrass: Features broad and often sprawling leaf blades.

# Object Classes

## Billygoat Weed
### Description
Billygoat weed has broad, rounded leaves often growing in a clustered fashion. It is recognizable by its dense leaf structure.

### Instructions
- Annotate the entire area where billygoat weed leaves are visible, ensuring the boundary captures the dense clusters.
- Avoid labeling individual stray leaves that are not part of the main cluster.

## Carrots
### Description
Carrot plants have a feathery appearance due to their fine, delicate leaves. The leaf structure is less dense compared to billygoat weed.

### Instructions
- Focus on annotating the central mass of carrot leaves where the feathery texture is apparent.
- Do not include nearby similar plants if the feathery leaves are not evident.

## Cynodon Dactylon
### Description
Cynodon Dactylon, or Bermuda grass, has slender, wiry stems with narrow leaves. It appears as a sprawling grass with distinctive runner stems.

### Instructions
- Identify and annotate the sections where the narrow leaves and runner stems are predominant.
- Avoid areas where the grass structure disperses into non-distinct patches.

## Dandelion
### Description
Dandelions feature a rosette pattern of toothed leaves, often lying close to the ground. The leaves are broader and have a jagged edge.

### Instructions
- Encircle the rosette area of the dandelion, including all leaves with the jagged pattern.
- Do not annotate isolated toothed leaves without a cohesive rosette structure.

## Large Crabgrass
### Description
Large crabgrass is characterized by its broad, flat leaves that spread outward. The plant creates a carpet-like layer over the ground.

### Instructions
- Capture the entire span of the spreading broad leaves in the annotation.
- Exclude areas where the leaf spread is interrupted or patchy, not forming a continuous carpet.
