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

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