Negative (inconsistent image counts) number of images

Hi,

I got negative count numbers (-35) in my dataset. How to repair? I can’t even export it.

Same question was asked 3 years ago (March 2022) by alfredv, and Co-founder & CTO of Roboflow, Brad Dwyer, promised that “the engineering team is working on fixing inconsistent image counts”. About 3 YEARS passed but no result…

  • Project Type: Object detection
  • Operating System & Browser: Windows

Hello @Abdulla, I’m part of the Roboflow development team.

I have reviewed your workspace and corrected the image count. I noticed that your dataset still lacks images. The next step to generate a version would be to add annotated images to the dataset, and then you can create new versions and train a model.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

Best regards,
Leandro Rosemberg

Hello @leandro_roboflow,

Thank you for your reply and efforts.

I have a question: is there a solution from your side to avoid this kind of problem? If yes, please comment below. It will be helpful for people with the same problem in the future

Hello @Abdulla , thank you for your replies so far!

I want to let you know that the issue with incorrect image counts happens because of some race conditions in our code. We know where the problems are and we’re fixing them gradually to prevent it to break something in our system.

When users like you report this issue, we can fix it manually, just like we did for you. We’re working to make sure this won’t happen in the future.

Thanks for your feedback,
Leandro Rosemberg


got the same problem. i cant create a full dataset with all uploaded images.

Hello @Oliver_Baumgart, I saw that you managed to fix the image count of your dataset, and also generated a version.

Just one piece of information, if this happens again you can try to generate the analytics again, accessing the Analytics option in the side menu and clicking on regenerate.

If you have any further questions I’m happy to help.

Kind regards
