Image Segmentation plays an essential role in computer vision and image processing with various applications from medical diagnosis to autonomous car driving. A lot of segmentation algorithms have been proposed for addressing specific problems. In recent years, the success of deep learning techniques has tremendously influenced a wide range of computer vision areas, and the modern approaches of image segmentation based on deep learning are becoming prevalent. In this article, we introduce a high-efficient development toolkit for image segmentation, named PaddleSeg. The toolkit aims to help both developers and researchers in the whole process of designing segmentation models, training models, optimizing performance and inference speed, and deploying models. Currently, PaddleSeg supports around 20 popular segmentation models and more than 50 pre-trained models from real-time and high-accuracy levels. With modular components and backbone networks, users can easily build over one hundred models for different requirements. Furthermore, we provide comprehensive benchmarks and evaluations to show that these segmentation algorithms trained on our toolkit have more competitive accuracy. Also, we provide various real industrial applications and practical cases based on PaddleSeg. All codes and examples of PaddleSeg are available at https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/PaddleSeg.
