This repository provides inference code for CellSAM. CellSAM is described in more detail in the preprint, and is publicly deployed at cellsam.deepcell.org. CellSAM achieves state-of-the-art performance on segmentation across a variety of cellular targets (bacteria, tissue, yeast, cell culture, etc.) and imaging modalities (brightfield, fluorescence, phase, etc.). Feel free to reach out for support/questions! The full dataset used to train CellSAM is available here.
The easiest way to get started with CellSAM is with pip
pip install git+https://github.com/vanvalenlab/cellSAM.git
CellSAM requires python>=3.10, but otherwise uses pure PyTorch. A sample image is included in this repository. Segmentation can be performed as follows
import numpy as np
from cellSAM import segment_cellular_image
img = np.load("sample_imgs/yeaz.npy")
mask, _, _ = segment_cellular_image(img, device='cuda')
For more details, see cellsam_introduction.ipynb.
