Real-time detection transformer with DINOv2-style visual features
Roboflow/rf-detr-largemixpeek://image_extractor@v1/roboflow_rf_detr_large_v1Overview
RF-DETR Large is a real-time detection transformer from Roboflow. It combines a ViT backbone, multi-scale feature fusion, and a deformable DETR-style decoder to produce object boxes without anchor heuristics.
On Mixpeek, RF-DETR Large adds a modern open object detector for pipelines that need high-quality bounding boxes before retrieval, filtering, or agent inspection.
Architecture
End-to-end detection transformer with a DINOv2-with-registers style ViT backbone, RF-DETR windowed attention, a multi-scale projector, deformable cross-attention decoder, and DETR-style object queries trained on COCO 2017.
Mixpeek SDK Integration
// No extractor parameter takes a Hugging Face model id (checked against
// GET /v1/discovery/extractors, which returns 13), so rf-detr-large runs
// on your side and the output is upserted through POST
// /v1/namespaces/{namespace_id}/documents/upsert. On Enterprise the other
// path is to upload the weights instead: POST /v1/namespaces/{id}/models
// accepts the huggingface format and a custom plugin loads them.

// No managed alternative for an open label set. Two extractors do emit a
// bbox, for the one thing each detects: document_graph_extractor@v1 per
// layout block, face_identity_extractor@v1 per face. Nothing ships that
// returns masks, depth maps or anomaly scores.Capabilities
- Object detection over the COCO 2017 label space
- Transformer-based boxes without anchor design
