Detectron2 is Facebook AI Research's next generation software system that implements state-of-the-art object detection algorithms. It is a ground-up rewrite of the previous version, Detectron, and it originates from maskrcnn-benchmark.

What's New

• It is powered by the PyTorch deep learning framework.
• Includes more features such as panoptic segmentation, densepose, Cascade R-CNN, rotated bounding boxes, etc.
• Can be used as a library to support different projects on top of it. We'll open source more research projects in this way.
• It trains much faster.

See our blog post to see more demos and learn about detectron2.

Installation

See INSTALL.md.

Quick Start

See GETTING_STARTED.md, or the Colab Notebook.

Learn more at our documentation. And see projects/ for some projects that are built on top of detectron2.

Model Zoo and Baselines

We provide a large set of baseline results and trained models available for download in the Detectron2 Model Zoo.
