OneFormer: one model to segment them all? 🤯  
I was looking into paperswithcode leaderboards when I came across OneFormer for the first time so it was time to dig in!

OneFormer is a "truly universal" model for semantic, instance and panoptic segmentation tasks ⚔️  
What makes is truly universal is that it's a single model that is trained only once and can be used across all tasks 👇

The enabler here is the text conditioning, i.e. the model is given a text query that states task type along with the appropriate input, and using contrastive loss, the model learns the difference between different task types 👇

Thanks to 🤗 Transformers, you can easily use the model! I have drafted a [notebook](https://t.co/cBylk1Uv20) for you to try right away 😊  
You can also check out the [Space](https://t.co/31GxlVo1W5) without checking out the code itself
