This repo holds the official weights of BiRefNet_lite trained in 2K resolution.

Training Sets:

DIS5K (except DIS-VD)
HRS10K
UHRSD
P3M-10k (except TE-P3M-500-NP)
TR-humans
AM-2k
AIM-500
Human-2k (synthesized with BG-20k)
Distinctions-646 (synthesized with BG-20k)
HIM2K
PPM-100

HR samples selection:

size_h, size_w = 1440, 2560
ratio = 0.8
h, w = image.shape[:2]
h >= size_h and w >= size_w or (h > size_h * ratio and w > size_w * ratio)

Validation Sets:

DIS-VD
TE-P3M-500-NP
