Notes:

There are 4 different segment-anything-2 models, [tiny, small, base, large]. At the moment, base is used. If you want better quality or better speed, another one can be used. For this, uncomment the corresponding wget line in setup.sh e.g.

#wget https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/segment_anything_2/092824/sam2.1_hiera_large.pt

to

wget https://dl.fbaipublicfiles.com/segment_anything_2/092824/sam2.1_hiera_large.pt

and change line 28 in selection_refiner.py from

SAM_SIZE = "base"

to e.g.

SAM_SIZE = "large"
