Segment Anything Model called SAM, it's a project from Meta that was published in april 2023, which consists of a computer vision model trained from a huge database for image segmentation. The model has been designed and trained to be fast, and its database covers more than 11 million images, making it adaptable to a wide range of tasks. This model was released to encourage the investigation of basic models for artificial research. SAM can also take input indications from other systems, which makes it a versatile model to be coupled and complemented in the development of new applications.
With this model it is possible to request multiple points to work on the image and segment a part of it to convert it into a mask, these are used to show the location of specific objects in an image, the masks help to isolate the parts of the object that you want to segment taking as a reference texture, opacity, shape and color; This model predicts binary masks that verify th
