Runs as a custom pluginDetectionVerified 2026-11-05
RF-DETR Base
Roboflow/rf-detr-base
RF-DETR Base is a image object detection model (Apache-2.0). Can run on Mixpeek as a custom plugin.
Mixpeek does not run it today. It can run as a custom plugin: the weights load without remote code.

What it is good and bad at
- Best at
- DINOv2-backbone real-time detector that fine-tunes well on small custom datasets (RF100-VL); Nano to Large are Apache-2.0.
- Worst at
- XL and 2XL sizes are under Roboflow's PML 1.0, not Apache; check the transformers version supports the architecture.

How Mixpeek wires it
- Extractors
- None today
- Feature URIs
- None today
- Vector indexes
- None
- Retriever stages
- None
- Combines with
- detector boxes -> crops -> SigLIP vectors per object (one document per object, or a multi-vector per frame)
- labels -> payload field -> attribute filter in a retriever
- scene splits -> keyframes -> detector -> object documents with frame timestamps
How it runs
- Status
- Runs as a custom plugin Not served. Permissive alternative to Ultralytics YOLO. Would run as a custom extractor plugin loading safetensors with transformers (trust_remote_code false), emitting boxes, labels and crops.
- Serve apps
- None
- Runtime
- transformers (RF-DETR, library_name transformers on the hub) or the rfdetr package
- Weights
- safetensors, no remote code
- Parameters
- 32 M
- Size on disk
- 129 MB
- Preprocessing
- Resize to 640x640, rescale to 0..1 (image processor).
- Postprocessing
- Sigmoid class scores, top-k queries, threshold; no NMS (one-to-one matching).
- Serving
- both
- Hardware
- Runs on CPU (slower without a GPU)
