Update on 25 Nov, 2025: We add support for adapting with SAM3 (Segment Anything 3).
Update on 8 Aug, 2024: We add support for adapting with SAM2 (Segment Anything 2), a more powerful backbone! Please refer our new technical report! and see the code at "SAM2-Adapter" Branch!
Update on 24 July, 2024: The link of pre-trained model is updated.
Update on 30 August 2023: This paper will be prsented at ICCV 2023.
Update on 28 April 2023: We tested the performance of polyp segmentation to show our approach can also work on medical datasets.
Update on 22 April: We report our SOTA result based on ViT-H version of SAM (use demo.yaml). We have also uploaded the yaml config for ViT-L and ViT-B version of SAM, suitable GPU with smaller memory (e.g. NVIDIA Tesla V-100), although they may compromise on accuracy.
This code was implemented with Python 3.8 and PyTorch 1.13.0. You can install all the requirements via:
pip install -r requirements.txt
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 python -m torch.distributed.launch --nnodes 1 --nproc_per_node 4 loadddptrain.py --config configs/demo.yaml
!Please note that the SAM model consume much memory. We use 4 x A100 graphics card for training. If you encounter the memory issue, please try to use graphics cards with larger memory!
python test.py --config [CONFIG_PATH] --model [MODEL_PATH]
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 python -m torch.distributed.launch train.py --nnodes 1 --nproc_per_node 4 --config [CONFIG_PATH]
Updates on 30 July. As mentioned by @YunyaGaoTree in issue #39 You can also try to use the code below to gain (probably) faster training.
!torchrun train.py --config configs/demo.yaml
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,3 python -m torch.distributed.launch --nnodes 1 --nproc_per_node 4 loadddptrain.py --config configs/demo.yaml
python test.py --config [CONFIG_PATH] --model [MODEL_PATH]
