### Mask2Former
Checkout [Mask2Former](https://github.com/facebookresearch/Mask2Former), a universal architecture based on MaskFormer meta-architecture that
achieves SOTA on panoptic, instance and semantic segmentation across four popular datasets (ADE20K, Cityscapes, COCO, Mapillary Vistas).
### Features
* Better results while being more efficient.
* Unified view of semantic- and instance-level segmentation tasks.
* Support major semantic segmentation datasets: ADE20K, Cityscapes, COCO-Stuff, Mapillary Vistas.
* Support **ALL** Detectron2 models.
## Installation
See [installation instructions](INSTALL.md).
## Getting Started
