Hi Kaggle Team!
\nSome time ago Nvidia changed the license for segformer (aka mit-b) to non-comercial usage, and my question is pretty simple - can we use segformer models?
\n@maggiemd maybe you can help?

\nI do not know exactly about this competition, but for the HubMap competition last year, the winner used Segformer and wrote something about the license on the top of this post: https://www.kaggle.com/competitions/hubmap-organ-segmentation/discussion/356201

\n Pretrained SegFormer and its encoder “mit” are unavailable for commercial use. It seems that other winners also use this model. However, I got an answer from the host, which permits the use of SegFormer in this competiion. The reasons are: Since competition hosts are non-profit, the commercial restriction isn’t applied. The model was Apache 2.0 license at the competition launch and the license was changed during the competition.
Maybe this helps
