Managing models

A model is trained using a prepared dataset that you provide. AutoML Video Intelligence Object Tracking uses the items from the your dataset to train, test, and evaluate the model's performance. Next, you should review the results, adjust the training dataset as needed, and train a new model using the improved dataset

Training a model can take several hours to complete. The AutoML API enables you to check the status of training.

Since AutoML Video Intelligence Object Tracking creates a new model each time you start training, your project can include numerous models. You can get a list of the models in your project and can delete models you no longer need.

The maximum lifespan for a model is two years. You must create and train a new model to continue tracking objects after that amount of time.

Using curl or PowerShell

To make it more convenient to run the curl (or PowerShell) samples in this topic, set the following environment variable. Replace project-id with the name of your Google Cloud project.

export PROJECT_ID="project-id"

Training models

When you have a dataset with a solid set of labeled training items, you can create and train the model.

Web UI

Open the AutoML Video Object Tracking UI and navigate to the Datasets page.
Select the dataset that you want to use to train the your model.

The display name of the selected dataset appears in the title bar, and the page lists the individual items in the dataset along with their labels.
When you are done reviewing the dataset, click the Train tab just below the title bar.

The training page provides a basic analysis of your dataset and advises you about whether it is adequate for training. If AutoML Video Object Tracking suggests changes, consider returning to the Videos page and adding items or labels.
When the dataset is ready, click Start Training to create a new model or Train New Model if you want to create an additional model.

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

dataset-id: the name of your target dataset. For example, my_dataset_01 display name).
model-name: replace with a name that you choose for your model.
Note:
- project-number: number of your project
- location-id: the Cloud region where annotation should take place. Supported cloud regions are: us-east1, us-west1, europe-west1, asia-east1. If no region is specified, a region will be determined based on video file location.

HTTP method and URL:

POST https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models

Request JSON body:

{
  "datasetId": "dataset-id",
  "displayName": "model-name",
  "videoObjectTrackingModelMetadata": {},
}

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Note: The following command assumes that you have logged in to the gcloud CLI with your user account by executing gcloud init or gcloud auth login, or by using Cloud Shell, which automatically logs you into the gcloud CLI. You can check the currently active account by executing gcloud auth list.

Save the request body in a file called request.json, and execute the following command:

curl -X POST \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
    -H "x-goog-user-project: project-number" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8" \
    -d @request.json \
    "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models"

PowerShell

Save the request body in a file called request.json, and execute the following command:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred"; "x-goog-user-project" = "project-number" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
    -Method POST `
    -Headers $headers `
    -ContentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8" `
    -InFile request.json `
    -Uri "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models" | Select-Object -Expand Content

You should receive an operation ID for your model training operation. The above example shows a response that contains the model training operation ID VOT1741767155885539328.

Getting the status of an operation

You can check the status of a long-running task like importing items into a dataset or training a model using the operation ID from the response when you started the task.

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

operation-id: the ID of the long-running operation created for the request and provided in the response when you started the operation, for example VOT12345....
Note:
- project-number: number of your project
- location-id: the Cloud region where annotation should take place. Supported cloud regions are: us-east1, us-west1, europe-west1, asia-east1. If no region is specified, a region will be determined based on video file location.

HTTP method and URL:

GET https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/operations/operation-id

To send your request, choose one of these options:

curl

Execute the following command:

curl -X GET \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
    -H "x-goog-user-project: project-number" \
    "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/operations/operation-id"

PowerShell

Execute the following command:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred"; "x-goog-user-project" = "project-number" }

    -Headers $headers `
    -Uri "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/operations/operation-id" | Select-Object -Expand Content

The import operation can take some time to complete. When the import task finishes, the operation status shows done: true with no errors listed, as shown in the example above.

operation-name: the name of the operation as returned by AutoML Video Intelligence Object Tracking API. The operation name has the format projects/project-number/locations/location-id/operations/operation-id

Deleting a model

The following example deletes a model.

Web UI

Navigate to the Models page in the AutoML Video Object Tracking UI.
Click the three-dot menu at the far right of the row you want to delete and select Delete.
Click Confirm in the confirmation dialog box.

REST

Before using any of the request data, make the following replacements:

project-number: the number of your project
location-id: the Cloud region where annotation should take place. Supported cloud regions are: us-east1, us-west1, europe-west1, asia-east1. If no region is specified, a region will be determined based on video file location.
model-id: replace with the identifier for your model.

HTTP method and URL:

DELETE https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models/model-id

To send your request, expand one of these options:

curl (Linux, macOS, or Cloud Shell)

Execute the following command:

curl -X DELETE \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \
    -H "x-goog-user-project: project-number" \
    "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models/model-id"

PowerShell (Windows)

Execute the following command:

$cred = gcloud auth print-access-token
$headers = @{ "Authorization" = "Bearer $cred"; "x-goog-user-project" = "project-number" }

Invoke-WebRequest `
    -Method DELETE `
    -Headers $headers `
    -Uri "https://automl.googleapis.com/v1beta1/projects/project-number/locations/location-id/models/model-id" | Select-Object -Expand Content

You should receive a successful status code (2xx) and an empty response.
