hugging-face-vision-trainer
Train object detection, image classification, and SAM or SAM2 segmentation models locally or on Hugging Face Jobs, with dataset validation and results saved to the Hub.
Vision Model Training on Hugging Face Jobs
Train object detection, image classification, and SAM/SAM2 segmentation models on managed cloud GPUs. No local GPU setup required—results are automatically saved to the Hugging Face Hub.
Detailed Guide
Read [the detailed guide](references/detailed-guide.md) before executing this skill. It retains the complete procedure and reference material. Treat its safety, prerequisites, and validation requirements as mandatory. For focused work, load the relevant sections; for end-to-end work, read the guide completely.
When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when users want to:
- Fine-tune object detection models (D-FINE, RT-DETR v2, DETR, YOLOS) on cloud GPUs or local
- Fine-tune image classification models (timm: MobileNetV3, MobileViT, ResNet, ViT/DINOv3, or any Transformers classifier) on cloud GPUs or local
- Fine-tune SAM or SAM2 models for segmentation / image matting using bbox or point prompts
- Train bounding-box detectors on custom datasets
- Train image classifiers on custom datasets
- Train segmentation models on custom mask datasets with prompts
- Run vision training jobs on Hugging Face Jobs infrastructure
- Ensure trained vision models are permanently saved to the Hub
Prerequisites Checklist
Before starting any training job, verify:
Account & Authentication
