UperNet, ConvNeXt base-sized backbone

UperNet framework for semantic segmentation, leveraging a ConvNeXt backbone. UperNet was introduced in the paper Unified Perceptual Parsing for Scene Understanding by Xiao et al.

Combining UperNet with a ConvNeXt backbone was introduced in the paper A ConvNet for the 2020s.

Disclaimer: The team releasing UperNet + ConvNeXt did not write a model card for this model so this model card has been written by the Hugging Face team.

Model description

UperNet is a framework for semantic segmentation. It consists of several components, including a backbone, a Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) and a Pyramid Pooling Module (PPM).

Any visual backbone can be plugged into the UperNet framework. The framework predicts a semantic label per pixel.

Intended uses & limitations

You can use the raw model for semantic segmentation. See the model hub to look for fine-tuned versions (with various backbones) on a task that interests you.
