PanopticML

Default plugin for panoptic, provides all machine learning functionalities such as:

  • image embeddings using OpenAI CLIP
  • images clustering using FAISS Kmeans or HDBScan
  • images to images similarity using FAISS Index L2
  • text to images similarity using FAISS Index L2 + CLIP

Available models

Several models are available in this plugin to compute the embeddings:

  • google mobilenet: a really light model with lower performances but made to run on bad devices, no support for text similarity
  • openAI CLIP: default model for panoptic, good performances, runs well on most computers with a decent CPU, support text similarity and has a good understanding of semantics
  • meta dinosV2: model that will have better performances than CLIP on pure visual similarities but less understanding of themes and semantics, no support for text similarity, runs well on CPU
  • google SIGLIP2: computing heavy model, NVDIA GPU recommended but works also on CPU (it will take a long time to compute embeddings), way better results than CLIP on text similarity and semantics, and pretty good visual features
  • auto transformers: want to tryout any huggingface multimodal model ? you can just provide its id to panopticML and should be able to use it directly

Clustering functions

  • Kmeans: specify a number of clusters, really fast
  • HDBScan: automatic number of clusters, a bit slower and excludes a lot of images
  • Images to text: considering several texts, create a cluster per text and put each image to the text it is the closest to
  • Find duplicates: create clusters with only images sharing a lot of similarity together, good to find duplicates or near duplicates
