Supervision
Supervision is an open-source library designed to be a comprehensive toolkit for computer vision applications. It provides a wide range of functionalities, including data loading, model integration, annotation, and dataset management. The library is model-agnostic, allowing users to plug in any classification, detection, or segmentation model. Supervision offers a variety of highly customizable annotators, enabling users to compose the perfect visualization for their specific use case. Additionally, it provides a set of utilities for loading, splitting, merging, and saving datasets in various formats. The library is well-documented, with a detailed documentation page and a contributing guide for those who want to get involved in the development process. Supervision is built with Python and supports multiple libraries, including Ultralytics, Transformers, MMDetection, and Inference. It is designed to help users build computer vision applications faster and more reliably.
