Food-101 FileSplitter not splitiing

Hey guys! I hope you’re doing great.

I am trying to do the Food-101 challenge and facing some issues splitting the data. The data has a meta folder containing a test.txt that names the files that should be in the validation set.
It looks like this:

apple_pie/1011328
apple_pie/101251
apple_pie/1034399

However, when I pass path/“meta/test.txt” as the argument, to FileSplitter, the datablock is generated but I get an empty validation set.

I tried adding “.jpg” to each line and then running it, but that doesn’t work as well.
I also made a list of the names and then passed it to FuncSplitter, but ¯_(ツ)_/¯.

Any idea how can I proceed?
Thanks!

As examples located in subdirectories with the category names. Read it using Pandas DataFrame structure and then modify so that the paths and .jpg file extensions are added. Fast AI provides a way of reading the DataFrame structure and indicating that the labels are in column 0 and the examples are in column 1.

path = untar_data(URLs.FOOD)
train_path = '/root/.fastai/data/food-101/train.txt'
test_path = '/root/.fastai/data/food-101/test.txt'

def filelist2df(path):
    df = pd.read_csv(path, delimiter='/', header=None, names=['label', 'name'])
    df['name'] =  df['label'].astype(str) + "/" + df['name'].astype(str) + ".jpg"
    return df

train_df = filelist2df(train_path)
test_df = filelist2df(test_path)
