👋 Hello

We are your essential toolkit for computer vision. From data loading to real-time zone counting, we provide the building blocks so you can focus on building applications around your models. 🤝

💻 Install

Pip install the supervision package in a Python>=3.10 environment.

pip install supervision

Read more about conda, mamba, and installing from source in our guide.

🔥 Quickstart

Models

Supervision was designed to be model agnostic. Just plug in any classification, detection, or segmentation model. For your convenience, we have created connectors for the most popular libraries like Ultralytics, Transformers, MMDetection, or Inference. Other integrations, like rfdetr, already return sv.Detections directly.

Install the optional dependencies for this example with pip install pillow rfdetr.

import supervision as sv
from PIL import Image
from rfdetr import RFDETRSmall

image = Image.open("path/to/image.jpg")
model = RFDETRSmall()
detections = model.predict(image, threshold=0.5)

len(detections)
# 5
👉 more model connectors
  • inference

    Running with Inference requires a Roboflow API KEY.

    import supervision as sv
    from PIL import Image
    from inference import get_model
    
    image = Image.open("path/to/image.jpg")
    model = get_model(model_id="rfdetr-small", api_key="ROBOFLOW_API_KEY")
    result = model.infer(image)[0]
    detections = sv.Detections.from_inference(result)
    
    len(detections)
    # 5
    

Annotators

Supervision offers a wide range of highly customizable annotators, allowing you to compose the perfect visualization for your use case.

import cv2
import supervision as sv

image = cv2.imread("path/to/image.jpg")
# Assuming detections are obtained from a model
detections = sv.Detections(...)

box_annotator = sv.BoxAnnotator()
annotated_frame = box_annotator.annotate(scene=image.copy(), detections=detections)

Datasets

Supervision provides a set of utils that allow you to load, split, merge, and save datasets in one of the supported formats.

import supervision as sv
from roboflow import Roboflow

project = Roboflow().workspace("WORKSPACE_ID").project("PROJECT_ID")
dataset = project.version("PROJECT_VERSION").download("coco")

ds = sv.DetectionDataset.from_coco(
    images_directory_path=f"{dataset.location}/train",
    annotations_path=f"{dataset.location}/train/_annotations.coco.json",
)

path, image, annotation = ds[0]
# loads image on demand

for path, image, annotation in ds:
    # loads image on demand
    pass
👉 more dataset utils
  • load

    dataset = sv.DetectionDataset.from_yolo(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
        data_yaml_path=...,
    )
    
    dataset = sv.DetectionDataset.from_pascal_voc(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
    )
    
    dataset = sv.DetectionDataset.from_coco(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_path=...,
    )
    
  • split

    train_dataset, test_dataset = dataset.split(split_ratio=0.7)
    test_dataset, valid_dataset = test_dataset.split(split_ratio=0.5)
    
    len(train_dataset), len(test_dataset), len(valid_dataset)
    # (700, 150, 150)
    
  • merge

    ds_1 = sv.DetectionDataset(...)
    len(ds_1)
    # 100
    ds_1.classes
    # ['dog', 'person']
    
    ds_2 = sv.DetectionDataset(...)
    len(ds_2)
    # 200
    ds_2.classes
    # ['cat']
    
    ds_merged = sv.DetectionDataset.merge([ds_1, ds_2])
    len(ds_merged)
    # 300
    ds_merged.classes
    # ['cat', 'dog', 'person']
    
  • save

    dataset.as_yolo(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
        data_yaml_path=...,
    )
    
    dataset.as_pascal_voc(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
    )
    
    dataset.as_coco(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_path=...,
    )
    
  • convert

    sv.DetectionDataset.from_yolo(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
        data_yaml_path=...,
    ).as_pascal_voc(
        images_directory_path=...,
        annotations_directory_path=...,
    )
