Introduction

MMDetection is an open source object detection toolbox based on PyTorch. It is a part of the OpenMMLab project.

The main branch works with PyTorch 1.8+.

Apart from MMDetection, we also released MMEngine for model training and MMCV for computer vision research, which are heavily depended on by this toolbox.

What's New

Highlight

v3.2.0 was released in 12/10/2023:

1. Detection Transformer SOTA Model Collection (1) Supported four updated and stronger SOTA Transformer models: DDQ, CO-DETR, AlignDETR, and H-DINO. (2) Based on CO-DETR, MMDet released a model with a COCO performance of 64.1 mAP. (3) Algorithms such as DINO support AMP/Checkpoint/FrozenBN, which can effectively reduce memory usage.

2. Comprehensive Performance Comparison between CNN and Transformer RF100 consists of a dataset collection of 100 real-world datasets, including 7 domains. It can be used to assess the performance differences of Transformer models like DINO and CNN-based algorithms under different scenarios and data volumes. Users can utilize this benchmark to quickly evaluate the robustness of their algorithms in various scenarios.

3. Support for GLIP and Grounding DINO fine-tuning, the only algorithm library that supports Grounding DINO fine-tuning The Grounding DINO algorithm in MMDet is the only library that supports fine-tuning. Its performance is one point higher than the official version, and of course, GLIP also outperforms the official version. We also provide a detailed process for training and evaluating Grounding DINO on custom datasets. Everyone is welcome to give it a try.

| Model | Backbone | Style | COCO mAP | Official COCO mAP | | :----------------: | :------: | :-------: | :--------: | :---------------: | | Grounding DINO-T | Swin-T | Zero-shot | 48.5 | 48.4 | | Grounding DINO-T | Swin-T | Finetune | 58.1(+0.9) | 57.2 | | Grounding DINO-B | Swin-B | Zero-shot | 56.9 | 56.7 | | Grounding DINO-B | Swin-B | Finetune | 59.7 | | | Grounding DINO-R50 | R50 | Scratch | 48.9(+0.8) | 48.1 |

4. Support for the open-vocabulary detection algorithm Detic and multi-dataset joint training. 5. Training detection models using FSDP and DeepSpeed.

| ID | AMP | GC of Backbone | GC of Encoder | FSDP | Peak Mem (GB) | Iter Time (s) | | :-: | :-: | :------------: | :-----------: | :--: | :-----------: | :-----------: | | 1 | | | | | 49 (A100) | 0.9 | | 2 | √ | | | | 39 (A100) | 1.2 | | 3 | | √ | | | 33 (A100) | 1.1 | | 4 | √ | √ | | | 25 (A100) | 1.3 | | 5 | | √ | √ | | 18 | 2.2 | | 6 | √ | √ | √ | | 13 | 1.6 | | 7 | | √ | √ | √ | 14 | 2.9 | | 8 | √ | √ | √ | √ | 8.5 | 2.4 |

6. Support for the V3Det dataset, a large-scale detection dataset with over 13,000 categories.

We are excited to announce our latest work on real-time object recognition tasks, RTMDet, a family of fully convolutional single-stage detectors. RTMDet not only achieves the best parameter-accuracy trade-off on object detection from tiny to extra-large model sizes but also obtains new state-of-the-art performance on instance segmentation and rotated object detection tasks. Details can be found in the technical report. Pre-trained models are here.

| Task | Dataset | AP | FPS(TRT FP16 BS1 3090) | | ------------------------ | ------- | ------------------------------------ | ---------------------- | | Object Detection | COCO | 52.8 | 322 | | Instance Segmentation | COCO | 44.6 | 188 | | Rotated Object Detection | DOTA | 78.9(single-scale)/81.3(multi-scale) | 121 |
