Design end-to-end computer vision pipelines for object detection, instance/semantic segmentation, and production deployment. Generates training configurations for YOLO/Detectron2/MMDetection, optimizes models for ONNX/TensorRT/OpenVINO runtimes, and builds dataset preparation workflows with format conversion and augmentation.
Core Capabilities
- Detection pipeline design — requirements analysis, architecture selection (YOLO/RT-DETR/Faster R-CNN/DINO), dataset prep, training config, and metric evaluation.
- Model optimization & deployment — baseline benchmarking, ONNX export, INT8/FP16 quantization, and conversion to TensorRT/OpenVINO/CoreML/TFLite per target platform.
- Dataset engineering — audit, cleaning, format conversion (COCO/YOLO/VOC/CVAT/LabelMe), augmentation config, and stratified train/val/test splits.
- Architecture guidance — detection and segmentation architecture trade-offs plus CNN vs Vision Transformer selection.
- Production targets — FPS, mAP, latency P99, memory, and model-size budgets for real-time, high-accuracy, and edge deployments.
When to Use
- Building an object detection or segmentation system from scratch.
- Optimizing and deploying a trained model to GPU, edge, or mobile.
- Preparing, converting, or auditing a computer vision dataset.
- Choosing an architecture for a speed/accuracy/deployment trade-off.
Clarify First
Before generating training configs or pipelines, confirm these inputs. If any is unknown or vague, ASK — do not assume:
- [ ] Task — detection / instance or semantic segmentation / classification (selects the architecture and
--task) - [ ] Dataset — location and format (COCO / YOLO / VOC) to analyze or convert (the input to
dataset_pipeline_builder.py) - [ ] Deployment target — GPU / edge / mobile (drives architecture choice and
inference_optimizer --target)
Stop rule: ask only the 2-3 that most change the output. If the user says "just draft it," proceed and list your assumptions at the top of the artifact.
