# 👋 Introduction

Anomalib is a deep learning library that aims to collect state-of-the-art anomaly detection algorithms for benchmarking on both public and private datasets. Anomalib provides several ready-to-use implementations of anomaly detection algorithms described in the recent literature, as well as a set of tools that facilitate the development and implementation of custom models. The library has a strong focus on visual anomaly detection, where the goal of the algorithm is to detect and/or localize anomalies within images or videos in a dataset. Anomalib is constantly updated with new algorithms and training/inference extensions, so keep checking!

</p>

## Key features

- Simple and modular API and CLI for training, inference, benchmarking, and hyperparameter optimization.
- The largest public collection of ready-to-use deep learning anomaly detection algorithms and benchmark datasets.
- [**Lightning**](https://www.lightning.ai/) based model implementations to reduce boilerplate code and limit the implementation efforts to the bare essentials.
- The majority of models can be exported to [**OpenVINO**](https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/openvino-toolkit/overview.html) Intermediate Representation (IR) for accelerated inference on Intel hardware.
- A set of [inference tools](tools) for quick and easy deployment of the standard or custom anomaly detection models.

# 📦 Installation

Anomalib can be installed from PyPI. We recommend using a virtual environment and a modern package installer like `uv` or `pip`.

## 🚀 Quick Install

For a standard installation, you can use `uv` or `pip`. This will install the latest version of Anomalib with its core dependencies. PyTorch will be installed based on its default behavior, which usually works for CPU and standard CUDA setups.

```bash
# With uv
uv pip install anomalib

# Or with pip
pip install anomalib
```

For more control over the installation, such as specifying the PyTorch backend (e.g., XPU, CUDA and ROCm) or installing extra dependencies for specific models, see the advanced options below.

<details>
<summary><strong>💡 Advanced Installation: Specify Hardware Backend</strong></summary>

To ensure compatibility with your hardware, you can specify a backend during installation. This is the recommended approach for production environments and for hardware other than CPU or standard CUDA.

**Using `uv`:**

```bash
# CPU support (default, works on all platforms)
uv pip install "anomalib[cpu]"

# CUDA 12.4 support (Linux/Windows with NVIDIA GPU)
uv pip install "anomalib[cu124]"

# CUDA 12.1 support (Linux/Windows with NVIDIA GPU)
uv pip install "anomalib[cu121]"

# CUDA 11.8 support (Linux/Windows with NVIDIA GPU)
uv pip install "anomalib[cu118]"

# ROCm support (Linux with AMD GPU)
uv pip install "anomalib[rocm]"

# Intel XPU support (Linux with Intel GPU)
uv pip install "anomalib[xpu]"
```

**Using `pip`:**
The same extras can be used with `pip`:

```bash
pip install "anomalib[cu124]"
```

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>🧩 Advanced Installation: Additional Dependencies</strong></summary>

Anomalib includes most dependencies by default. For specialized features, you may need additional optional dependencies. Remember to include your hardware-specific extra.

```bash
# Example: Install with OpenVINO support and CUDA 12.4
uv pip install "anomalib[openvino,cu124]"

# Example: Install all optional dependencies for a CPU-only setup
uv pip install "anomalib[full,cpu]"
```

Here is a list of available optional dependency groups:

| Extra         | Description                              | Purpose                                     |
| :------------ | :--------------------------------------- | :------------------------------------------ |
| `[openvino]`  | Intel OpenVINO optimization              | For accelerated inference on Intel hardware |
| `[clip]`      | Vision-language models                   | `winclip`                                   |
| `[vlm]`       | Vision-language model backends           | Advanced VLM features                       |
| `[loggers]`   | Experiment tracking (wandb, comet, etc.) | For experiment management                   |
| `[notebooks]` | Jupyter notebook support                 | For running example notebooks               |
| `[full]`      | All optional dependencies                | All optional features                       |

</details>

<details>
<summary><strong>🔧 Advanced Installation: Install from Source</strong></summary>

For contributing to `anomalib` or using a development version, you can install from source.

**Using `uv`:**
This is the recommended method for developers as it uses the project's lock file for reproducible environments.

```bash
git clone https://github.com/open-edge-platform/anomalib.git
cd anomalib

# Create the virtual environment
uv venv

# Sync with the lockfile for a specific backend (e.g., CPU)
uv sync --extra cpu

# Or for a different backend like CUDA 12.4
uv sync --extra cu124

# To set up a full development environment
uv sync --extra dev --extra cpu
```

**Using `pip`:**

```bash
git clone https://github.com/open-edge-platform/anomalib.git
cd anomalib

# Install in editable mode with a specific backend
pip install -e ".[cpu]"

# Install with development dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev,cpu]"
```

</details>
