HugsVision is an open-source and easy to use all-in-one huggingface wrapper for computer vision.

The goal is to create a fast, flexible and user-friendly toolkit that can be used to easily develop state-of-the-art computer vision technologies, including systems for Image Classification, Semantic Segmentation, Object Detection, Image Generation, Denoising and much more.

⚠️ HugsVision is currently in beta. ⚠️

Quick installation

HugsVision is constantly evolving. New features, tutorials, and documentation will appear over time. HugsVision can be installed via PyPI to rapidly use the standard library. Moreover, a local installation can be used by those users than want to run experiments and modify/customize the toolkit. HugsVision supports both CPU and GPU computations. For most recipes, however, a GPU is necessary during training. Please note that CUDA must be properly installed to use GPUs.

Anaconda setup

conda create --name HugsVision python=3.6 -y
conda activate HugsVision

More information on managing environments with Anaconda can be found in the conda cheat sheet.

Install via PyPI

Once you have created your Python environment (Python 3.6+) you can simply type:

pip install hugsvision

Install with GitHub

Once you have created your Python environment (Python 3.6+) you can simply type:

git clone https://github.com/qanastek/HugsVision.git
cd HugsVision
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install --editable .

Any modification made to the hugsvision package will be automatically interpreted as we installed it with the --editable flag.

Example Usage

Let's train a binary classifier that can distinguish people with or without Pneumothorax thanks to their radiography.

Steps:

1. Move to the recipe directory cd recipes/pneumothorax/binary_classification/
2. Download the dataset here ~779 MB.
3. Transform the dataset into a directory based one, thanks to the process.py script.
4. Train the model: python train_example_vit.py --imgs="./pneumothorax_binary_classification_task_data/" --name="pneumo_model_vit" --epochs=1
5. Rename <MODEL_PATH>/config.json to <MODEL_PATH>/preprocessor_config.json in my case, the model is situated at the output path like ./out/MYVITMODEL/1_2021-08-10-00-53-58/model/
6. Make a prediction: python predict.py --img="42.png" --path="./out/MYVITMODEL/1_2021-08-10-00-53-58/model/"
