How do I slice yolo .txt files?

[richard-schwab]

I was able to slice a yolo image using the documentation here: https://github.com/obss/sahi/blob/main/docs/slicing.md

However, how do I slice the yolo .txt file that is part of it so I can train? Or is that not the workflow you recommend?

I was of the mind that I should slice up my database and train it in yolov8 and then use this to predict. Is that not correct? There isn't a training.md in the docs folder to give recommendations.

sahi supports only slicing coco annotations.

you can

1. slice coco annotations,
2. convert sliced coco files into yolo format using sahi
3. train yolov5/yolov8 with the converted yolo txt files

But why, if yolo trains on yolo annotations?
