# smugVision pets - example
#
# Copy to ~/.smugvision/pets.yaml, or add pets from the web UI on the Hints page.
#
# Face recognition learns human faces from the photos under reference_faces/, so an
# animal is invisible to it no matter how often it appears. Pets close that gap: name
# one here and it becomes tickable on every frame of a proof sheet, beside the people.
#
# The value is the exact sentence handed to the vision model as ground truth, which it
# must accept over its own guess. Write it the way you want it said - the breed, the
# name, and whose pet it is - because a model told only "Biscuit" will invent the rest.
#
# The key is also added as a keyword on any photo the pet is ticked for, so it is
# searchable on SmugMug afterwards.

pets:
  Biscuit: This is Biscuit, a Golden Retriever, and the family dog.
  Pepper: This is Pepper, the family's grey tabby cat.

  # A pet that is not yours is worth spelling out, so a caption does not adopt it into
  # the family:
  # Scout: This is Scout, a dog belonging to our neighbours rather than to us.
