  Data transformation functions are applied in the following order.
  1. If key fields.InputDataFields.image_additional_channels is present in

     fields.InputDataFields.image.
  2. data_augmentation_fn (optional): applied on tensor_dict.
  3. model_preprocess_fn: applied only on image tensor in tensor_dict.
  4. image_resizer_fn: applied on original image and instance mask tensor in
     tensor_dict.
  5. one_hot_encoding: applied to classes tensor in tensor_dict.
  6. merge_multiple_boxes (optional): when groundtruth boxes are exactly the
     same they can be merged into a single box with an associated k-hot class
     label.

  Args:
    tensor_dict: dictionary containing input tensors keyed by
      fields.InputDataFields.
    model_preprocess_fn: model's preprocess function to apply on image tensor.
      This function must take in a 4-D float tensor and return a 4-D preprocess
      float tensor and a tensor containing the true image shape.
    image_resizer_fn: image resizer function to apply on groundtruth instance
      `masks. This function must take a 3-D float tensor of an image and a 3-D
      tensor of instance masks and return a resized version of these along with
      the true shapes.
    num_classes: number of max classes to one-hot (or k-hot) encode the class
      labels.
    data_augmentation_fn: (optional) data augmentation function to apply on
      input `tensor_dict`.
    merge_multiple_boxes: (optional) whether to merge multiple groundtruth boxes
      and classes for a given image if the boxes are exactly the same.
    retain_original_image: (optional) whether to retain original image in the
      output dictionary.
    use_multiclass_scores: whether to use multiclass scores as
      class targets instead of one-hot encoding of `groundtruth_classes`.
    use_bfloat16: (optional) a bool, whether to use bfloat16 in training.
