## Introduction

MMCV is a foundational library for computer vision research and supports many
research projects as below:

- [MMClassification](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmclassification): OpenMMLab image classification toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMDetection](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmdetection): OpenMMLab detection toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMDetection3D](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmdetection3d): OpenMMLab's next-generation platform for general 3D object detection.
- [MMSegmentation](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmsegmentation): OpenMMLab semantic segmentation toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMAction2](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmaction2): OpenMMLab's next-generation action understanding toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMTracking](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmtracking): OpenMMLab video perception toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMPose](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmpose): OpenMMLab pose estimation toolbox and benchmark.
- [MMEditing](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmediting): OpenMMLab image and video editing toolbox.
- [MMOCR](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmocr): OpenMMLab text detection, recognition and understanding toolbox.
- [MMGeneration](https://github.com/open-mmlab/mmgeneration): OpenMMLab image and video generative models toolbox.

It provides the following functionalities.

- Universal IO APIs
- Image/Video processing
- Image and annotation visualization
- Useful utilities (progress bar, timer, ...)
- PyTorch runner with hooking mechanism
- Various CNN architectures
- High-quality implementation of common CUDA ops

See the [documentation](http://mmcv.readthedocs.io/en/latest) for more features and usage.

Note: MMCV requires Python 3.6+.

## Installation

There are two versions of MMCV:

- **mmcv-full**: comprehensive, with full features and various CUDA ops out of box. It takes longer time to build.
- **mmcv**: lite, without CUDA ops but all other features, similar to mmcv<1.0.0. It is useful when you do not need those CUDA ops.

**Note**: Do not install both versions in the same environment, otherwise you may encounter errors like `ModuleNotFound`. You need to uninstall one before installing the other. `Installing the full verion is highly recommended if CUDA is avaliable`.

a. Install the full version.

Before installing mmcv-full, make sure that PyTorch has been successfully installed following the [official guide](https://pytorch.org/).

We provide pre-built mmcv packages (recommended) with different PyTorch and CUDA versions to simplify the building.

i. Install the latest version.

The rule for installing the latest ``mmcv-full`` is as follows:

```shell
pip install mmcv-full -f https://download.openmmlab.com/mmcv/dist/{cu_version}/{torch_version}/index.html
```

Please replace ``{cu_version}`` and ``{torch_version}`` in the url to your desired one. For example,
to install the latest ``mmcv-full`` with ``CUDA 11.1`` and ``PyTorch 1.9.0``, use the following command:

```shell
pip install mmcv-full -f https://download.openmmlab.com/mmcv/dist/cu111/torch1.9.0/index.html
```

For more details, please refer the the following tables and delete ``=={mmcv_version}``.

ii. Install a specified version.

The rule for installing a specified ``mmcv-full`` is as follows:

```shell
pip install mmcv-full=={mmcv_version} -f https://download.openmmlab.com/mmcv/dist/{cu_version}/{torch_version}/index.html
```

First of all, please refer to the Releases and replace ``{mmcv_version}`` a specified one. e.g. ``1.3.9``.
Then replace ``{cu_version}`` and ``{torch_version}`` in the url to your desired versions. For example,
to install ``mmcv-full==1.3.9`` with ``CUDA 11.1`` and ``PyTorch 1.9.0``, use the following command:

```shell
pip install mmcv-full==1.3.9 -f https://download.openmmlab.com/mmcv/dist/cu111/torch1.9.0/index.html
```

For more details, please refer the the following tables.

Another way is to compile locally by running

```python
pip install mmcv-full
```

Note that the local compiling may take up to 10 mins.

b. Install the lite version.

```python
pip install mmcv
```

c. Install full version with custom operators for onnxruntime

- Check [here](docs/deployment/onnxruntime_op.md) for detailed instruction.
