Accepts single or multiple point coordinates on an image and generates precise object segmentation masks using a vision transformer encoder paired with a lightweight mask decoder. The architecture encodes the image once, then efficiently processes point prompts through a prompt encoder that converts coordinates to embeddings, which are fused with image features via cross-attention mechanisms to produce per-pixel segmentation logits.
Unique: Uses a unified vision transformer encoder (ViT-based) shared across all prompt types, enabling efficient amortized computation where the image is encoded once and reused for multiple point, box, or mask prompts without re-encoding. The prompt encoder converts 2D coordinates directly to embeddings via learned position encodings, avoiding hand-crafted feature extraction.
vs alternatives: Faster and more accurate than traditional interactive segmentation (e.g., GrabCut, watershed) because it leverages foundation model pre-training on 1.1B images, achieving zero-shot generalization across diverse object categories without fine-tuning.
Accepts bounding box coordinates (top-left and bottom-right corners) and generates segmentation masks by encoding the box as corner point embeddings plus a special box token, then fusing these with image features through cross-attention. The decoder refines the mask iteratively to respect box boundaries while capturing fine object details within the box region.
Unique: Encodes bounding boxes as dual corner points plus a learnable box token, allowing the same prompt encoder to handle points and boxes without separate branches. This design reuses the cross-attention mechanism, reducing model complexity while maintaining flexibility across prompt modalities.
vs alternatives: More accurate than naive bounding box masking (e.g., connected components within box) because the transformer decoder understands object boundaries learned from 1.1B training images, handling occlusion and complex shapes within the box region.
Provides a unified interface for loading pre-trained SAM2 checkpoints in multiple sizes (Tiny 38.9M, Small 46M, Base-Plus 80.8M, Large 224.4M parameters) from local files or Hugging Face Hub, with automatic architecture instantiation and weight loading. The system handles checkpoint versioning, device placement (CPU/GPU), and optional quantization for memory efficiency.
Unique: Provides a unified build_sam2() factory function that instantiates the correct architecture based on checkpoint name, avoiding manual architecture specification. Supports both local file paths and Hugging Face Hub model IDs, enabling seamless model discovery and versioning.
vs alternatives: More convenient than manual checkpoint management because it automates architecture instantiation and weight loading, reducing boilerplate code and enabling easy model switching for ablation studies or deployment optimization.
Supports batch processing of multiple images or video frames through a single forward pass, with dynamic batching that groups inputs of similar sizes to maximize GPU utilization. The system uses memory pooling to reuse allocated tensors across batch items, reducing allocation overhead and enabling efficient processing of large image collections.
Unique: Uses dynamic batching with automatic grouping of similar-sized inputs and memory pooling to reuse allocated tensors, reducing allocation overhead and fragmentation. This design is transparent to users; they provide a list of images and receive batched results.
vs alternatives: More efficient than sequential processing because it amortizes encoder computation across multiple images and reduces memory allocation overhead, achieving 3-5x throughput improvement on large batches compared to per-image inference.
Estimates prediction confidence for each segmentation mask through multiple mechanisms: predicted IoU (intersection-over-union with ground truth, estimated by the model), stability score (mask consistency under input perturbations), and logit magnitude. These scores enable filtering unreliable predictions and ranking masks by confidence, supporting downstream applications that require quality thresholds.
Unique: Combines predicted IoU (model-estimated overlap with ground truth) and stability score (empirical consistency under perturbations) to provide complementary confidence signals. The stability score is computed by adding small random noise to inputs and measuring mask consistency, providing a data-driven uncertainty estimate.
vs alternatives: More informative than single-score confidence because it provides multiple orthogonal signals (model estimate, empirical stability, logit magnitude), enabling users to choose confidence metrics appropriate for their application (e.g., prioritize stability for safety-critical tasks).
Accepts a previous segmentation mask (binary or soft) as input and refines it by encoding the mask as a spatial feature map, concatenating it with image features, and passing through the decoder to produce an improved mask. Supports iterative refinement where outputs from one iteration become inputs to the next, enabling progressive segmentation correction through multiple rounds.
Unique: Treats masks as spatial feature maps rather than discrete labels, enabling continuous refinement through the same decoder architecture. The mask encoder converts binary/soft masks to embeddings that are spatially aligned with image features, allowing sub-pixel precision in refinement.
vs alternatives: More flexible than morphological post-processing (erosion, dilation) because it understands object semantics and can intelligently fill holes or remove spurious regions based on learned object boundaries, not just pixel connectivity.
Generates comprehensive segmentation masks for all objects in an image without user prompts by systematically sampling point grids across the image, running inference for each point, and merging overlapping masks using IoU-based deduplication. The SAM2AutomaticMaskGenerator class orchestrates this process, filtering low-confidence masks and returning a set of non-overlapping masks covering the entire image.
Unique: Uses a grid-based sampling strategy with IoU-based non-maximum suppression to deduplicate overlapping masks, avoiding redundant inference. The stability score (computed from mask prediction variance across slight input perturbations) filters unreliable masks, improving precision without manual thresholding.
vs alternatives: More comprehensive and accurate than traditional panoptic segmentation (e.g., Mask R-CNN + semantic segmentation) because it leverages foundation model pre-training and doesn't require category-specific training, generalizing to arbitrary object types in zero-shot fashion.
Tracks multiple objects through video sequences by maintaining a streaming memory buffer of encoded features from previous frames, using cross-frame attention to propagate object masks forward in time. The SAM2VideoPredictor processes frames sequentially, storing compressed representations of segmented objects in memory, then uses these memories to predict masks in subsequent frames without re-encoding the entire history, enabling real-time processing.
Unique: Uses a streaming memory architecture where frame features are compressed and stored in a fixed-size buffer, with cross-frame attention enabling mask propagation without re-encoding. This design treats video as a sequence of single-frame images processed through a unified architecture, avoiding separate video-specific models.
vs alternatives: More efficient than optical flow-based tracking (e.g., DeepFlow) because it directly propagates semantic masks through learned attention rather than computing pixel-level motion, reducing computational overhead while maintaining temporal consistency across diverse object types.
