VeRI XML file has the wrong encoding #72

Description

@agude

The first line of the VeRI train_label.xml file is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="gb2312" ?>

However, xml.etree.ElementTree throws an error when reading this file:

ValueError: multi-byte encodings are not supported

Instead, the first line must be changed to:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UFT-8" ?>
