## What it is
GluonCV is a deep learning toolkit providing state-of-the-art computer vision model implementations with 170+ pre-trained models. It supports both MXNet and PyTorch backends and covers image classification, object detection, segmentation, pose estimation, and action recognition.

## Use cases
- run image classification with pretrained models
- train an object detection model on custom data
- semantic segmentation of images
- human pose estimation
- video action recognition
- reproduce SOTA results from research papers
- export models for mobile deployment

## When to choose
- you need pretrained computer vision models with a simple one-line API
- you want training scripts to reproduce published SOTA results
- you work with MXNet or want dual PyTorch/MXNet support

## When to avoid
- you need actively maintained tooling - MXNet is retired and development has shifted to AutoGluon and other projects
- you need tasks beyond the supported vision applications
- you want the latest model architectures, which appear faster in timm or MMDetection
