xml_to_csv.py

# Script taken from https://github.com/datitran/raccoon_dataset (datitran) and slightly
# adjusted by Peter van Lunteren on 6 march 2022 to fit the object detection tutorial
# https://github.com/PetervanLunteren/object_detection_tutorial.

# This script takes the xml files in 'test' and 'train' dirs and compiles it to
# 'train_labels.csv' and 'test_labels.csv'.
