# Mask2Former

Mask2Former model trained on ADE20k semantic segmentation (tiny-sized version, Swin backbone). It was introduced in the paper [Masked-attention Mask Transformer for Universal Image Segmentation
](https://arxiv.org/abs/2112.01527) and first released in [this repository](https://github.com/facebookresearch/Mask2Former/). 

Disclaimer: The team releasing Mask2Former did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.

## Model description

Mask2Former addresses instance, semantic and panoptic segmentation with the same paradigm: by predicting a set of masks and corresponding labels. Hence, all 3 tasks are treated as if they were instance segmentation. Mask2Former outperforms the previous SOTA, 
[MaskFormer](https://arxiv.org/abs/2107.06278) both in terms of performance an efficiency by (i) replacing the pixel decoder with a more advanced multi-scale deformable attention Transformer, (ii) adopting a Transformer decoder with masked attention to boost performance without
without introducing additional computation and (iii) improving training efficiency by calculating the loss on subsampled points instead of whole masks.

## Intended uses & limitations

You can use this particular checkpoint for panoptic segmentation. See the [model hub](https://huggingface.co/models?search=mask2former) to look for other
fine-tuned versions on a task that interests you.

### How to use

Here is how to use this model:

```python
import requests
import torch
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoImageProcessor, Mask2FormerForUniversalSegmentation


# load Mask2Former fine-tuned on ADE20k semantic segmentation
processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained("facebook/mask2former-swin-tiny-ade-semantic")
model = Mask2FormerForUniversalSegmentation.from_pretrained("facebook/mask2former-swin-tiny-ade-semantic")

url = "http://images.cocodataset.org/val2017/000000039769.jpg"
image = Image.open(requests.get(url, stream=True).raw)
inputs = processor(images=image, return_tensors="pt")

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model(**inputs)

# model predicts class_queries_logits of shape `(batch_size, num_queries)`
# and masks_queries_logits of shape `(batch_size, num_queries, height, width)`
class_queries_logits = outputs.class_queries_logits
masks_queries_logits = outputs.masks_queries_logits

# you can pass them to processor for postprocessing
predicted_semantic_map = processor.post_process_semantic_segmentation(outputs, target_sizes=[image.size[::-1]])[0]
# we refer to the demo notebooks for visualization (see "Resources" section in the Mask2Former docs)
```
