Ultralytics YOLOE-11S Open-Vocabulary Instance Segmentation
This endpoint deploys Ultralytics YOLOE-11S (yoloe-11s-seg.pt), a real-time open-vocabulary instance segmentation model that detects and segments arbitrary object classes from text prompts. The Replicate endpoint accepts a comma-separated class_names input, which is applied via set_classes() before inference; when class_names is left empty it falls back to the prompt-free weights (yoloe-11s-seg-pf.pt) that detect from a built-in vocabulary. Both detection boxes and pixel-precise segmentation masks are returned on the annotated image, with optional JSON.

📄 Documentation
For comprehensive guidance on training, validation, prediction, and deployment, refer to the full Ultralytics Docs.
Install
Install the ultralytics package, including all requirements, in a Python>=3.8 environment with PyTorch>=1.8.
pip install ultralytics
For alternative installation methods, including Conda, Docker, and building from source via Git, please consult the Quickstart Guide.
CLI
You can run this model from the Command Line Interface (CLI) with the yolo command:
yolo predict model=yoloe-11s-seg.pt source=path/to/bus.jpg
The yolo command supports various tasks and modes, accepting additional arguments like imgsz=640. See the CLI Docs.
Python
You can also run the model directly in Python:
from ultralytics import YOLOE
# Load the deployed open-vocabulary segmentation model
model = YOLOE("yoloe-11s-seg.pt")
# Set the text-prompt classes to detect (applied once before predict)
class_names = ["person", "bus", "sign"]
model.set_classes(class_names, model.get_text_pe(class_names))
# Run open-vocabulary instance segmentation
results = model("path/to/bus.jpg", conf=0.25, iou=0.45, imgsz=640)
results[0].save("output.png")

✨ Model
YOLOE-11 open-vocabulary instance segmentation models. This endpoint serves YOLOE-11S (yoloe-11s-seg.pt), automatically using the prompt-free yoloe-11s-seg-pf.pt when no classes are provided. All weights download automatically from the latest Ultralytics release on first use.
| Model | Pretrained weights | Prompt-free variant | Task |
|---|---|---|---|
| YOLOE-11S | yoloe-11s-seg.pt | yoloe-11s-seg-pf.pt | Instance Segmentation |
| YOLOE-11M | yoloe-11m-seg.pt | yoloe-11m-seg-pf.pt | Instance Segmentation |
| YOLOE-11L | yoloe-11l-seg.pt | yoloe-11l-seg-pf.pt | Instance Segmentation |
- YOLOE improves by +3.5 AP over YOLO-Worldv2 on LVIS while using about a third of the training resources and ~1.4× faster inference, and supports text prompts, visual prompts, and a prompt-free mode. See the YOLOE docs.
- This endpoint serves YOLOE-11S; the larger 11M/11L variants are shown for reference.
