# Overview
|
||||
|
||||
This chapter introduces you to the framework of MMSegmentation, and the basic conception of semantic segmentation. It also provides links to detailed tutorials about MMSegmentation.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is semantic segmentation?
|
||||
|
||||
Semantic segmentation is the task of clustering parts of an image together that belong to the same object class.
|
||||
It is a form of pixel-level prediction because each pixel in an image is classified according to a category.
|
||||
Some example benchmarks for this task are [Cityscapes](https://www.cityscapes-dataset.com/benchmarks/), [PASCAL VOC](http://host.robots.ox.ac.uk/pascal/VOC/voc2012/) and [ADE20K](https://groups.csail.mit.edu/vision/datasets/ADE20K/).
|
||||
Models are usually evaluated with the Mean Intersection-Over-Union (Mean IoU) and Pixel Accuracy metrics.
|
||||
|
||||
## What is MMSegmentation?
|
||||
|
||||
MMSegmentation is a toolbox that provides a framework for unified implementation and evaluation of semant
|
||||
ic segmentation methods,
|
||||
and contains high-quality implementations of popular semantic segmentation methods and datasets.
|
||||
|
||||
MMSeg consists of 7 main parts including apis, structures, datasets, models, engine, evaluation and visualization.
|
||||
|
||||
- **apis** provides high-level APIs for model inference.
|
||||
|
||||
- **structures** provides segmentation data structure `SegDataSample`.
|
||||
|
||||
- **datasets** supports various datasets for semantic segmentation.
|
||||
|
||||
- **transforms** contains a lot of useful data augmentation transforms.
|
||||
|
||||
- **models** is the most vital part for segmentors and contains different components of a segmentor.
|
||||
|
||||
- **segmentors** defines all of the segmentation model classes.
|
||||
- **data_preprocessors** works for preprocessing the input data of the model.
|
||||
- **backbones** contains various backbone networks that transform an image to feature maps.
|
||||
- **necks** contains various neck components that connect the backbone and heads.
|
||||
- **decode_heads** contains various head components that take feature map as input and predict segmentation results.
|
||||
- **losses** contains various loss functions.
|
||||
|
||||
- **engine** is a part for runtime components that extends function of [MMEngine](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmengine).
|
||||
|
||||
- **optimizers** provides optimizers and optimizer wrappers.
|
||||
- **hooks** provides various hooks of the runner.
|
||||
|
||||
- **evaluation** provides different metrics for evaluating model performance.
|
||||
|
||||
- **visualization** is for visualizing segmentation results.
|
||||
|
||||
## How to use this documentation
|
||||
|
||||
Here is a detailed step-by-step guide to learn more about MMSegmentation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. For installation instructions, please see [get_started](getting_started.md).
|
||||
|
||||
2. For beginners, MMSegmentation is the best place to start the journey of semantic segmentation
|
||||
as there are many SOTA and classic segmentation [models](model_zoo.md),
|
||||
and it is easier to carry out a segmentation task by plugging together building blocks and convenient high-level apis.
|
||||
Refer to the tutorials below for the basic usage of MMSegmentation:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Config](user_guides/1_config.md)
|
||||
- [Dataset Preparation](user_guides/2_dataset_prepare.md)
|
||||
- [Inference](user_guides/3_inference.md)
|
||||
- [Train and Test](user_guides/4_train_test.md)
|
||||
|
||||
3. If you would like to learn about the fundamental classes and features that make MMSegmentation work,
|
||||
please refer to the tutorials below to dive deeper:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Data flow](advanced_guides/data_flow.md)
|
||||
- [Structures](advanced_guides/structures.md)
|
||||
- [Models](advanced_guides/models.md)
|
||||
- [Datasets](advanced_guides/datasets.md)
|
||||
- [Evaluation](advanced_guides/evaluation.md)
|
||||
|
||||
4. MMSegmentation also provide tutorials for customization and advanced research,
|
||||
please refer to the below guides to build your own segmentation project:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Add new models](advanced_guides/add_models.md)
|
||||
- [Add new datasets](advanced_guides/add_dataset.md)
|
||||
- [Add new transforms](advanced_guides/add_transform.md)
|
||||
- [Customize runtime](advanced_guides/customize_runtime.md)
|
||||
|
||||
5. If you are more familiar with MMSegmentation v0.x, there is documentation about migration from MMSegmentation v0.x to v1.x
