đ Mask2Former
The Mask2Former model is trained on COCO instance segmentation (small - sized version, Swin backbone). It offers a unified approach for instance, semantic, and panoptic segmentation.
đ Quick Start
The Mask2Former model trained on COCO instance segmentation (small - sized version, Swin backbone) is introduced in the paper Masked - attention Mask Transformer for Universal Image Segmentation and first released in this repository.
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.
⨠Features
- Addresses instance, semantic and panoptic segmentation with the same paradigm by predicting a set of masks and corresponding labels.
- Outperforms the previous SOTA, MaskFormer in terms of performance and efficiency through several improvements:
- Replaces the pixel decoder with a more advanced multi - scale deformable attention Transformer.
- Adopts a Transformer decoder with masked attention to boost performance without introducing additional computation.
- Improves training efficiency by calculating the loss on subsampled points instead of whole masks.

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 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 introducing additional computation and (iii) improving training efficiency by calculating the loss on subsampled points instead of whole masks.
Intended uses & limitations

đģ Usage Examples
Basic Usage
import requests
import torch
from PIL import Image
from transformers import AutoImageProcessor, Mask2FormerForUniversalSegmentation
processor = AutoImageProcessor.from_pretrained("facebook/mask2former-swin-small-coco-instance")
model = Mask2FormerForUniversalSegmentation.from_pretrained("facebook/mask2former-swin-small-coco-instance")
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)
class_queries_logits = outputs.class_queries_logits
masks_queries_logits = outputs.masks_queries_logits
result = processor.post_process_instance_segmentation(outputs, target_sizes=[image.size[::-1]])[0]
predicted_instance_map = result["segmentation"]
