description: 'List of terms pertaining to annotation in CVAT.'
|

|
|
## Label
|
|
Label is a type of an annotated object (e.g. person, car, vehicle, etc.)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Attribute
|
|
Attribute is a property of an annotated object (e.g. color, model,
|
|
quality, etc.). There are two types of attributes:
|
|
|
|
### Unique
|
|
Unique immutable and can't be changed from frame to frame (e.g. age, gender, color, etc.)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### Temporary
|
|
Temporary mutable and can be changed on any frame (e.g. quality, pose, truncated, etc.)
|
|
|
|

|
## Track
|
|
Track is a set of shapes on different frames which corresponds to one object.
|
|
Tracks are created in `Track mode`
|
|
|
|

|

|

|
|
## Annotation
|
|
Annotation is a set of shapes and tracks. There are several types of annotations:
|
|
|
|
- _Manual_ which is created by a person
|
|
- _Semi-automatic_ which is created mainly automatically, but the user provides some data (e.g. interpolation)
|
|
- _Automatic_ which is created automatically without a person in the loop
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Approximation
|
|
Approximation allows you to reduce the number of points in the polygon.
|
|
Can be used to reduce the annotation file and to facilitate editing polygons.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
## Trackable
|
|
Trackable object will be tracked automatically if the previous frame was
|
|
a latest keyframe for the object. More details in the section [trackers](/docs/manual/advanced/ai-tools/#trackers).
|
|
|
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Mode
|
|
|
|
### Interpolation
|
|
Mode for video annotation, which uses [`track`](#track) objects.
|
|
Only objects on keyframes are manually annotation, and intermediate frames are linearly interpolated.
|
|
|
|

|
### Annotation
|
|
Mode for images annotation, which uses `shape` objects.
|
|
|
|

|
## Dimension
|
|
|
|
Depends on the task data type that is defined when the [task is created](/docs/manual/basics/creating_an_annotation_task/).
|
|
|
|
### 2D
|
|
|
|
The data format of 2d tasks are images and videos.
|
|
Related sections:
|
|
- [Creating an annotation task](/docs/manual/basics/creating_an_annotation_task/)
|
|
|
|
### 3D
|
|
|
|
The data format of 3d tasks is a cloud of points.

## State
|
|
State of the job. The state can be changed by an assigned user in [the menu inside the job](/docs/manual/basics/top-panel/).
|
|
There are several possible states: `new`, `in progress`, `rejected`, `completed`.
|
|
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
## Stage
|
|
Stage of the job. The stage is specified with the drop-down list on the [task page](/docs/manual/basics/tasks-page/).
|
|
There are three stages: `annotation`, `validation` or `acceptance`. This value affects the task progress bar.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Subset
|
|
A project can have subsets. Subsets are groups for tasks that make it easier to work with the dataset.
|
|
It could be `test`, `train`, `validation` or custom subset.
|
|

## Credentials
|
|
Under `credentials` is understood `Key & secret key`, `Account name and token`, `Anonymous access`, `Key file`.
|
|
Used to [attach cloud storage](/docs/manual/basics/attach-cloud-storage/#attach-new-cloud-storage).
