Mmtracking
mmtracking is a PyTorch video perception framework designed for training and deploying computer vision models that analyze sequential image data. It provides specialized tools for multi-object tracking, video instance segmentation, and a configuration-driven system for managing deep learning models.
The project utilizes a deep learning model registry and a configuration-driven pipeline to swap model backbones and detectors without modifying the core codebase. This modular approach allows for the development of custom perception architectures by combining various components and configurations.
The framework covers a broad range of video analysis tasks, including single and multi-object tracking, video object detection, and pixel-level instance segmentation. It includes utilities for data management via distributed storage integration and a benchmarking suite for calculating tracking precision and visualizing errors against ground truth data.
The system supports mixed precision training and provides tools for converting trained models into containerized environments for production serving.
