Maskrcnn Benchmark
This project is a modular PyTorch framework for training and evaluating object detection and instance segmentation models. It serves as a computer vision research tool and a deep learning inference engine designed to identify object locations, classes, and pixel-level masks within images.
The framework implements a two-stage inference pipeline that utilizes region proposal networks and a symmetric mask-head architecture. It provides specialized capabilities for instance segmentation, object bounding box detection, and human pose estimation via anatomical keypoint detection.
The system includes comprehensive data engineering utilities for parsing COCO datasets, managing custom dataset integration, and performing annotation filtering. It covers the full machine learning workflow, including custom model training with GPU acceleration, weight fine-tuning, batch inference execution, and the calculation of accuracy metrics.
