Transformers.js

What is Transformers.js ?

Transformers.js is a JavaScript library designed for object detection tasks. It allows developers to integrate transformer-based models into web applications, enabling the detection of objects within images efficiently.

Features

• Model Integration: Supports popular transformer-based models for accurate object detection.
• Browser Compatibility: Works seamlessly in modern web browsers.
• Real-time Processing: Enables real-time object detection in images.
• Easy API: Provides a simple and intuitive API for developers.
• Customizable: Allows for fine-tuning and customization of detection settings.

How to use Transformers.js ?

1. Install the Library: Use npm to install Transformers.js in your project.

   npm install transformers.js
   

2. Import the Library: Include Transformers.js in your JavaScript file.

   import Transformers from 'transformers.js';
   

3. Load the Model: Initialize the detection model.

   const detector = new Transformers.Detector();
   

4. Process an Image: Pass an image element or URL to the detector.

   detector.detectObjects(imageElement)
     .then(results => console.log(results));
   

5. Handle Results: Use the detected objects' data (e.g., bounding boxes, labels) as needed.
