Changes Update rekognition client to latest version
{'LabelModelVersion': 'string',

'Parents': [{'Name': 'string'}]}}
Detects instances of real-world entities within an image (JPEG or PNG) provided as input. This includes objects like flower, tree, and table; events like wedding, graduation, and birthday party; and concepts like landscape, evening, and nature.
For an example, see Analyzing Images Stored in an Amazon S3 Bucket in the Amazon Rekognition Developer Guide.
You pass the input image as base64-encoded image bytes or as a reference to an image in an Amazon S3 bucket. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing image bytes is not supported. The image must be either a PNG or JPEG formatted file.
For each object, scene, and concept the API returns one or more labels. Each label provides the object name, and the level of confidence that the image contains the object. For example, suppose the input image has a lighthouse, the sea, and a rock. The response includes all three labels, one for each object.
{Name: lighthouse, Confidence: 98.4629}
{Name: rock,Confidence: 79.2097}
{Name: sea,Confidence: 75.061}
In the preceding example, the operation returns one label for each of the three objects. The operation can also return multiple labels for the same object in the image. For example, if the input image shows a flower (for example, a tulip), the operation might return the following three labels.
{Name: flower,Confidence: 99.0562}
{Name: plant,Confidence: 99.0562}
{Name: tulip,Confidence: 99.0562}
In this example, the detection algorithm more precisely identifies the flower as a tulip.
In response, the API returns an array of labels. In addition, the response also includes the orientation correction. Optionally, you can specify MinConfidence to control the confidence threshold for the labels returned. The default is 50%. You can also add the MaxLabels parameter to limit the number of labels returned.
This is a stateless API operation. That is, the operation does not persist any data.
This operation requires permissions to perform the rekognition:DetectLabels action.

dict
[REQUIRED]
The input image as base64-encoded bytes or an S3 object. If you use the AWS CLI to call Amazon Rekognition operations, passing base64-encoded image bytes is not supported.
Bytes (bytes) --
Blob of image bytes up to 5 MBs.
S3Object (dict) --
Identifies an S3 object as the image source.
Bucket (string) --
Name of the S3 bucket.
Name (string) --
S3 object key name.
Version (string) --
If the bucket is versioning enabled, you can specify the object version.
integer
Maximum number of labels you want the service to return in the response. The service returns the specified number of highest confidence labels.
float
Specifies the minimum confidence level for the labels to return. Amazon Rekognition doesn't return any labels with confidence lower than this specified value.
If MinConfidence is not specified, the operation returns labels with a confidence values greater than or equal to 50 percent.

Response Structure
(dict) --
Labels (list) --
An array of labels for the real-world objects detected.
(dict) --
Structure containing details about the detected label, including the name, and level of confidence.
The Amazon Rekognition Image operation operation returns a hierarchical taxonomy ( Parents) for detected labels and also bounding box information ( Instances) for detected labels. Amazon Rekognition Video doesn't return this information and returns null for the Parents and Instances attributes.
Name (string) --
The name (label) of the object or scene.
Confidence (float) --
Level of confidence.
Instances (list) --
If Label represents an object, Instances contains the bounding boxes for each instance of the detected object. Bounding boxes are returned for common object labels such as people, cars, furniture, apparel or pets.
(dict) --
An instance of a label detected by .
BoundingBox (dict) --
The position of the label instance on the image.
Width (float) --
Width of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image width.
Height (float) --
Height of the bounding box as a ratio of the overall image height.
Left (float) --
Left coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image width.
Top (float) --
Top coordinate of the bounding box as a ratio of overall image height.
Confidence (float) --
The confidence that Amazon Rekognition Image has in the accuracy of the bounding box.
Parents (list) --
The parent labels for a label. The response includes all ancestor labels.
(dict) --
A parent label for a label. A label can have 0, 1, or more parents.
Name (string) --
The name of the parent label.
OrientationCorrection (string) --
The value of OrientationCorrection is always null.
If the input image is in .jpeg format, it might contain exchangeable image (Exif) metadata that includes the image's orientation. Amazon Rekognition uses this orientation information to perform image correction - the bounding box coordinates are translated to represent object locations after the orientation information in the Exif metadata is used to correct the image orientation. Images in .png format don't contain Exif metadata.
Amazon Rekognition doesn’t perform image correction for images in .png format and .jpeg images without orientation information in the image Exif metadata. The bounding box coordinates are not translated and represent the object locations before the image is rotated.
LabelModelVersion (string) --
Version number of the label detection model that was used to detect labels.
{'Labels': {'Label': {'Instances': [{'BoundingBox': {'Height': 'float',
'Left': 'float',
'Top': 'float',
'Width': 'float'},
'Confidence': 'float'}],
'Parents': [{'Name': 'string'}]}}}
Gets the label detection results of a Amazon Rekognition Video analysis started by .
The label detection operation is started by a call to which returns a job identifier ( JobId). When the label detection operation finishes, Amazon Rekognition publishes a completion status to the Amazon Simple Notification Service topic registered in the initial call to StartlabelDetection. To get the results of the label detection operation, first check that the status value published to the Amazon SNS topic is SUCCEEDED. If so, call and pass the job identifier ( JobId) from the initial call to StartLabelDetection.
GetLabelDetection returns an array of detected labels ( Labels) sorted by the time the labels were detected. You can also sort by the label name by specifying NAME for the SortBy input parameter.
The labels returned include the label name, the percentage confidence in the accuracy of the detected label, and the time the label was detected in the video.
Use MaxResults parameter to limit the number of labels returned. If there are more results than specified in MaxResults, the value of NextToken in the operation response contains a pagination token for getting the next set of results. To get the next page of results, call GetlabelDetection and populate the NextToken request parameter with the token value returned from the previous call to GetLabelDetection.

Request Syntax
client.get_label_detection(
JobId='string',
MaxResults=123,
NextToken='string',
SortBy='NAME'|'TIMESTAMP'
)
string
[REQUIRED]
Job identifier for the label detection operation for which you want results returned. You get the job identifer from an initial call to StartlabelDetection.
integer
Maximum number of results to return per paginated call. The largest value you can specify is 1000. If you specify a value greater than 1000, a maximum of 1000 results is returned. The default value is 1000.
string
If the previous response was incomplete (because there are more labels to retrieve), Amazon Rekognition Video returns a pagination token in the response. You can use this pagination token to retrieve the next set of labels.
string
Sort to use for elements in the Labels array. Use TIMESTAMP to sort array elements by the time labels are detected. Use NAME to alphabetically group elements for a label together. Within each label group, the array element are sorted by detection confidence. The default sort is by TIMESTAMP.
