I've managed to prepare most of the datasets in tfrecords format except Aircraft

[AntreasAntoniou]

I am getting this error when I ran the specified command:

python -m meta_dataset.dataset_conversion.convert_datasets_to_records   --dataset=aircraft   --aircraft_data_root=$DATASRC/fgvc-aircraft-2013b   --splits_root=$SPLITS   --records_root=$RECORDS

I have managed to get the rest to be properly converted so I am assuming that the rest of my environment setup should be on point. Please let me know how to proceed.

OK, I fixed it.

I added a new line before the line that causes the issue that casts the bbox into a list to explicitly unpack it from the map.

bbox = list(bbox)

Thanks @AntreasAntoniou; it's kind of funny that this simple fix has not been incorporated in the main repo yet, it's impossible to prepare the Aircraft dataset without it 😄
