What do automatic_masks dictionary values mean in the sam_exploration notebook?

Just interested!

Hi, @RMNT. The automatic_masks is returned by SamAutomaticMaskGenerator.generate() method provided by the Segment Anything package. Here is the documentation for that method, detailing the returned dictionary:

Returns:
           list(dict(str, any)): A list over records for masks. Each record is
             a dict containing the following keys:
               segmentation (dict(str, any) or np.ndarray): The mask. If
                 output_mode='binary_mask', is an array of shape HW. Otherwise,
                 is a dictionary containing the RLE.
               bbox (list(float)): The box around the mask, in XYWH format.
               area (int): The area in pixels of the mask.
               predicted_iou (float): The model's own prediction of the mask's
                 quality. This is filtered by the pred_iou_thresh parameter.
               point_coords (list(list(float))): The point coordinates input
                 to the model to generate this mask.
               stability_score (float): A measure of the mask's quality. This
                 is filtered on using the stability_score_thresh parameter.
               crop_box (list(float)): The crop of the image used to generate
                 the mask, given in XYWH format.
