**News**: We released the technical report on [ArXiv](https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.07155). Documentation: https://mmdetection.readthedocs.io/ ## Introduction English | [简体中文](README_zh-CN.md) MMDetection is an open source object detection toolbox based on PyTorch. It is a part of the [OpenMMLab](https://openmmlab.com/) project. The master branch works with **PyTorch 1.3+**. The old v1.x branch works with PyTorch 1.1 to 1.4, but v2.0 is strongly recommended for faster speed, higher performance, better design and more friendly usage. ![demo image](resources/coco_test_12510.jpg) ### Major features - **Modular Design** We decompose the detection framework into different components and one can easily construct a customized object detection framework by combining different modules. - **Support of multiple frameworks out of box** The toolbox directly supports popular and contemporary detection frameworks, *e.g.* Faster RCNN, Mask RCNN, RetinaNet, etc. - **High efficiency** All basic bbox and mask operations run on GPUs. The training speed is faster than or comparable to other codebases, including [Detectron2](https://github.com/facebookresearch/detectron2), [maskrcnn-benchmark](https://github.com/facebookresearch/maskrcnn-benchmark) and [SimpleDet](https://github.com/TuSimple/simpledet). - **State of the art** The toolbox stems from the codebase developed by the *MMDet* team, who won [COCO Detection Challenge](http://cocodataset.org/#detection-leaderboard) in 2018, and we keep pushing it forward. Apart from MMDetection, we also released a library [mmcv](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmcv) for computer vision research, which is heavily depended on by this toolbox. ## License This project is released under the [Apache 2.0 license](LICENSE). ## Changelog v2.11.0 was released in 01/04/2021.
