Pixellib is a library for performing segmentation of images and videos. It supports the two major types of image segmentation:
1.Semantic segmentation
2.Instance segmentation
You can implement both semantic and instance segmentation with few lines of code.
There are two types of Deeplabv3+ models available for performing semantic segmentation with PixelLib:
- Deeplabv3+ model with xception as network backbone trained on Ade20k dataset, a dataset with 150 classes of objects.
- Deeplabv3+ model with xception as network backbone trained on Pascalvoc dataset, a dataset with 20 classes of objects.
Instance segmentation is implemented with PixelLib by using Mask R-CNN model trained on coco dataset.
Note Deeplab and mask r-ccn models are available in the release of this repository.
Install latest version of tensorflow(Tensorflow 2.0+) with:
pip3 install tensorflow
pip3 install pixellib --upgrade
