+# OneFormer
+
+
+## Overview
+
+The OneFormer model was proposed in [OneFormer: One Transformer to Rule Universal Image Segmentation](https://huggingface.co/papers/2211.06220) by Jitesh Jain, Jiachen Li, MangTik Chiu, Ali Hassani, Nikita Orlov, Humphrey Shi. OneFormer is a universal image segmentation framework that can be trained on a single panoptic dataset to perform semantic, instance, and panoptic segmentation tasks. OneFormer uses a task token to condition the model on the task in focus, making the architecture task-guided for training, and task-dynamic for inference.

+
+The abstract from the paper is the following:
+
+*Universal Image Segmentation is not a new concept. Past attempts to unify image segmentation in the last decades include scene parsing, panoptic segmentation, and, more recently, new panoptic architectures. However, such panoptic architectures do not truly unify image segmentation because they need to be trained individually on the semantic, instance, or panoptic segmentation to achieve the best performance. Ideally, a truly universal framework should be trained only once and achieve SOTA performance across all three image segmentation tasks. To that end, we propose OneFormer, a universal image segmentation framework that unifies segmentation with a multi-task train-once design. We first propose a task-conditioned joint training strategy that enables training on ground truths of each domain (semantic, instance, and panoptic segmentation) within a single multi-task training process. Secondly, we introduce a task token to condition our model on the task at hand, making our model task-dynamic to support multi-task training and inference. Thirdly, we propose using a query-text contrastive loss during training to establish better inter-task and inter-class distinctions. Notably, our single OneFormer model outperforms specialized Mask2Former models across all three segmentation tasks on ADE20k, CityScapes, and COCO, despite the latter being trained on each of the three tasks individually with three times the resources. With new ConvNeXt and DiNAT backbones, we observe even more performance improvement. We believe OneFormer is a significant step towards making image segmentation more universal and accessible.*

+
+## Usage tips
+
+- OneFormer requires two inputs during inference: *image* and *task token*.
+- During training, OneFormer only uses panoptic annotations.
+- If you want to train the model in a distributed environment across multiple nodes, then one should update the
+  `get_num_masks` function inside in the `OneFormerLoss` class of `modeling_oneformer.py`. When training on multiple nodes, this should be
+  set to the average number of target masks across all nodes, as can be seen in the original implementation [here](https://github.com/SHI-Labs/OneFormer/blob/33ebb56ed34f970a30ae103e786c0cb64c653d9a/oneformer/modeling/criterion.py#L287).
+- One can use [`OneFormerProcessor`] to prepare input images and task inputs for the model and optional targets for the model. [`OneFormerProcessor`] wraps [`OneFormerImageProcessor`] and [`CLIPTokenizer`] into a single instance to both prepare the images and encode the task inputs.
+- To get the final segmentation, depending on the task, you can call [`~OneFormerProcessor.post_process_semantic_segmentation`] or [`~OneFormerImageProcessor.post_process_instance_segmentation`] or [`~OneFormerImageProcessor.post_process_panoptic_segmentation`]. All three tasks can be solved using [`OneFormerForUniversalSegmentation`] output, panoptic segmentation accepts an optional `label_ids_to_fuse` argument to fuse instances of the target object/s (e.g. sky) together.
