Create an explore job

The guide below describes creating a data exploration(EXPLORE) job. It uses PASCAL-VOC12 as an example public dataset. This public dataset can be imported as per the instructions in Import public dataset.

1. In the left navigation pane, click Repo > Datasets.

   For illustration purposes, let's consider creating an explore job for the “PASCAL-VOC12” dataset.

   You can customize the table view as needed.

4. In the New Visualization Job window, enter the Job Name and Job Description.

   

5. Select the Job Type.

6. Enable the Region of Interest option to draw the bounding box in the image based on the area you are interested in for the job. Only the portion of the image within the bounding box will be considered to create the job. This is useful for cases where only a portion of the image has the entity that is of interest for analysis.

   

   Notice that based on the bounding box you draw, the selected area is highlighted and the area outside the box is greyed out.

   

7. Enter other details, such as Clusterer, Embedder, and others, as needed.

8. Click Submit to create the visualization job.
