## What it is
AdelaiDet is an open-source Python toolbox built on Detectron2 that implements multiple instance-level detection and recognition algorithms such as FCOS, BlendMask, SOLOv2, CondInst, BoxInst, and ABCNet for text spotting. It ships pretrained model zoos, configs, training tools, and demos for object detection, instance segmentation, and scene text recognition.

## Use cases
- train object detection models like FCOS on COCO
- run instance segmentation with BlendMask or SOLOv2
- detect and recognize scene text in images with ABCNet
- train weakly supervised segmentation with BoxInst from box annotations
- deploy pretrained detection models with ONNX export
- benchmark anchor-free detection baselines

## When to choose
- you already use Detectron2 and want state-of-the-art instance-level detection algorithms
- you need research implementations of FCOS, BlendMask, SOLO, CondInst, or ABCNet with pretrained weights
- you need scene text detection and recognition in one toolbox

## When to avoid
- you need a lightweight production inference server without Detectron2 dependencies
- you want actively developed features - the project is largely in maintenance mode
- you work outside PyTorch/CUDA environments

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: machine-learning, deep-learning, computer-vision, image-processing, ocr
- domain: computer-vision, machine-learning, deep-learning, image-processing
