We introduce SEEM that can Segment Everything Everywhere with Multi-modal prompts all at once. SEEM allows users to easily segment an image using prompts of different types including visual prompts (points, marks, boxes, scribbles and image segments) and language prompts (text and audio), etc. It can also work with any combinations of prompts or generalize to custom prompts!

Inspired by the appealing universal interface in LLMs, we are advocating universal, interactive multi-modal interface for any types of segmentation with ONE SINGLE MODEL. We emphasize 4 important features of SEEM below.
- Versatility: work with various types of prompts, for example, clicks, boxes, polygons, scribbles, texts, and referring image;
- Compositionaliy: deal with any compositions of prompts;
- Interactivity: interact with user in multi-rounds, thanks to the memory prompt of SEEM to store the session history;
- Semantic awareness: give a semantic label to any predicted mask;
A breif introduction of all the generic and interactive segmentation tasks we can do.
- Try our default examples first;
- Upload an image;
- Select at least one type of prompt of your choice (If you want to use referred region of another image please check "Example" and upload another image in referring image panel);
- Remember to provide the actual prompt for each promt type you select, otherwise you will meet an error (e.g., rember to draw on the referring image);
- Our model by defualt support the vocabulary of COCO 80 categories, others will be classified to 'others' or misclassifed. If you wanna segment using open-vocabulary labels, include the text label in 'text' button after drawing sribbles.
- Click "Submit" and wait for a few seconds.
An example of Transformers. The referred image is the truck form of Optimus Prime. Our model can always segment Optimus Prime in target images no matter which form it is in. Thanks Hongyang Li for this fun example.
With a simple click or stoke from the user, we can generate the masks and the corresponding category labels for it.
SEEM can generate the mask with text input from the user, providing multi-modality interaction with human.
With a simple click or stroke on the referring image, the model is able to segment the objects with similar semantics on the target images.
SEEM understands the spatial relationship very well. Look at the three zebras! The segmented zebras have similar positions with the referred zebras. For example, when the leftmost zebra is referred on the upper row, the leftmost zebra on the bottom row is segmented.
No training on video data needed, SEEM works perfectly for you to segment videos with whatever queries you specify!
We use Whiper to turn audio into text prompt to segment the object. Try it in our demo!

An example of using referring image on a popular teddy bear.In the following figure, we compare the levels of interaction and semantics of three segmentation tasks (edge detection, open-set, and interactive segmentation). Open-set Segmentation usually requires a high level of semantics and does not require interaction. Compared with SAM, SEEM covers a wider range of interaction and semantics levels. For example, SAM only supports limited interaction types like points and boxes, while misses high-semantic tasks since it does not output semantic labels itself. The reasons are: First, SEEM has a unified prompt encoder that encodes all visual and language prompts into a joint representation space. In consequence, SEEM can support more general usages. It has potential to extend to custom prompts. Second, SEEM works very well on text to mask (grounding segmentation) and outputs semantic-aware predictions.
