YolactEdge is a PyTorch implementation of a real-time instance segmentation model optimized for edge devices like the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier. It provides pretrained weights, evaluation, and training code for COCO and YouTube VIS benchmarks.

Use cases

  • run real-time instance segmentation on edge devices
  • segment objects in video at high FPS on a Jetson
  • evaluate pretrained instance segmentation models on COCO
  • train a fast instance segmentation model with a ResNet backbone
  • deploy computer vision on resource-constrained hardware

When to choose

  • you need real-time instance segmentation on embedded GPUs like Jetson
  • you want a PyTorch codebase with pretrained COCO/YouTube VIS weights
  • you can leverage TensorRT for maximum edge inference speed

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained library with frequent updates (last release 2022)
  • you need panoptic or semantic segmentation rather than instance segmentation
  • you only target CPU-only or non-NVIDIA hardware
