🚀 The new HQ-SAM (High-Quality Segment Anything Model) has just been added to the Hugging Face Transformers library!

This is an enhanced version of the original SAM (Segment Anything Model) introduced by Meta in 2023. HQ-SAM significantly improves the segmentation of fine and detailed objects, while preserving all the powerful features of SAM — including prompt-based interaction, fast inference, and strong zero-shot performance. That means you can easily switch to HQ-SAM wherever you used SAM!

The improvements come from just a few additional learnable parameters. The authors collected a high-quality dataset with 44,000 fine-grained masks from various sources, and impressively trained the model in just 4 hours using 8 GPUs — all while keeping the core SAM weights frozen.

The newly introduced parameters include:

* A High-Quality Token
* A Global-Local Feature Fusion mechanism

This work was presented at NeurIPS 2023 and still holds state-of-the-art performance in zero-shot segmentation on the SGinW benchmark.
