## Abstract (arXiv)

This paper presents SSSegmenation, which is an open source supervised semantic image segmentation toolbox based on PyTorch. The design of this toolbox is motivated by MMSegmentation while it is easier to use because of fewer dependencies and achieves superior segmentation performance under a comparable training and testing setup. Moreover, the toolbox also provides plenty of trained weights for popular and contemporary semantic segmentation methods, including Deeplab, PSPNet, OCRNet, MaskFormer, etc. We expect that this toolbox can contribute to the future development of semantic segmentation.
