YOLOv8 Graph Object Detection and Labeling—Automated Data Extraction from Research Articles
I trained a YOLOv8 object detection model on over 1,000 annotated graphs to precisely locate graphs in research article images. My work included extracting text and X-Y axis labels from images using OCR and classifying articles based on these extracted features. I contributed to the automation and streamlining of information extraction by developing and refining automated detection tools. • Annotated graph plots in images for supervised object detection training • Labeled X and Y axis information in scientific graphs using OCR outputs • Worked with large-scale XML-based article datasets and image extraction pipelines • Contributed to workflow automation for research-level data extraction projects
