inventorado7 f2fc83e72a Initial commit: ComfyUI-GROUT custom nodes
Add GROUT segmentation nodes for mosaic grout line detection:
- GROUTSegmentation: Main segmentation node with scale and sliding window modes
- GROUTThreshold: Threshold adjustment without re-running inference
- GROUTHeatmapColorize: Colormap visualization for probability heatmaps

Features:
- Auto-download model from HuggingFace
- Scale mode: resize to 512x512 for inference
- Sliding window mode: process large images with overlapping patches
- Configurable patch size and overlap settings

# ComfyUI-GROUT
Custom ComfyUI nodes for **GROUT** (Geometric Reasoning Over Unstructured Tessellations) - a deep learning model for detecting and segmenting grout lines in mosaic images.
## Nodes
### GROUT Segmentation
Main segmentation node that processes mosaic images.
**Inputs:**
- `image`: Input mosaic image
- `device`: Select CUDA or CPU for inference
- `threshold`: Initial threshold for binary mask (0.0 - 1.0)
- `model_path` (optional): Custom path to model weights. Leave empty to auto-download from HuggingFace.
**Outputs:**
- `probability_heatmap`: Grayscale probability map (0-1 range)
- `binary_mask`: Thresholded binary mask as image
- `mask`: ComfyUI MASK format for compositing
### GROUT Threshold
Post-processing node to adjust threshold without re-running inference.
**Inputs:**
- `probability_heatmap`: Output from GROUT Segmentation node
- `threshold`: Threshold value (0.0 - 1.0)
**Outputs:**
- `binary_mask`: Thresholded binary mask as image
- `mask`: ComfyUI MASK format
### GROUT Heatmap Colorize
Visualization node to apply colormap to probability heatmap.
**Inputs:**
- `probability_heatmap`: Output from GROUT Segmentation node
- `colormap`: Select from magma, viridis, plasma, inferno, hot, jet
**Outputs:**
- `colored_heatmap`: Colorized visualization
## Installation
### Option 1: ComfyUI Manager
Search for "GROUT" in ComfyUI Manager and install.
### Option 2: Manual Installation
1. Navigate to your ComfyUI custom nodes folder:
```bash
cd ComfyUI/custom_nodes/
```
2. Clone this repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/advancedtech-sk/ComfyUI-GROUT.git
```
3. Install dependencies:
```bash
cd ComfyUI-GROUT
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
**For standalone Windows version** (portable/embedded Python):
```bash
cd ComfyUI-GROUT
..\..\..\python_embeded\python.exe -m pip install -r requirements.txt
```
4. Restart ComfyUI
## Model Download
The model will be automatically downloaded from HuggingFace on first use. It will be saved to:
```
ComfyUI/models/grout/grout_b3_zeroshot_v1.pth
```
Alternatively, you can manually download from:
- [HuggingFace Model](https://huggingface.co/advancedtech-sk/GROUT)
## Example Workflow
```
[Load Image] -> [GROUT Segmentation] -> [probability_heatmap] -> [GROUT Threshold] -> [binary_mask]
|
+-> [GROUT Heatmap Colorize] -> [Preview Image]
```
**Workflow Tips:**
1. Use **GROUT Segmentation** to run inference once
2. Connect the `probability_heatmap` output to **GROUT Threshold**
3. Adjust the threshold slider in GROUT Threshold to tune the mask without re-running the model
4. Use **GROUT Heatmap Colorize** for visualization with different colormaps
