    """
    Performs image segmentation inference based on various prompts using SAM2 architecture.

    This method leverages the Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM2) to generate segmentation masks for input images
    based on provided prompts such as bounding boxes, points, or existing masks. It supports both single and
    multi-object prediction scenarios.

    Args:
        im (torch.Tensor): Preprocessed input image tensor with shape (N, C, H, W).
        bboxes (np.ndarray | List[List[float]] | None): Bounding boxes in XYXY format with shape (N, 4).
        points (np.ndarray | List[List[float]] | None): Object location points with shape (N, 2), in pixels.
        labels (np.ndarray | List[int] | None): Point prompt labels with shape (N,). 1 = foreground, 0 = background.
        masks (np.ndarray | None): Low-resolution masks from previous predictions with shape (N, H, W).
        multimask_output (bool): Flag to return multiple masks for ambiguous prompts.
        img_idx (int): Index of the image in the batch to process.

    Returns:
        (np.ndarray): Output masks with shape (C, H, W), where C is the number of generated masks.
        (np.ndarray): Quality scores for each mask, with length C.

    Examples:
        >>> predictor = SAM2Predictor(cfg)
        >>> image = torch.rand(1, 3, 640, 640)
        >>> bboxes = [[100, 100, 200, 200]]
        >>> masks, scores, logits = predictor.prompt_inference(image, bboxes=bboxes)
        >>> print(f"Generated {masks.shape[0]} masks with average score {scores.mean():.2f}")

    Notes:
        - The method supports batched inference for multiple objects when points or bboxes are provided.
        - Input prompts (bboxes, points) are automatically scaled to match the input image dimensions.
        - When both bboxes and points are provided, they are merged into a single 'points' input for the model.
