I'd like to invite you to attend the world's first-ever YOLO conference: [#YOLOVISION22](https://ultralytics.com/yolo-vision)! This virtual event takes place on **September 27th, 2022** with talks from the world's leading vision AI experts from Google, SenseTime's MMLabs, Baidu's PaddlePaddle, Meituan's YOLOv6, Weight & Biases, Roboflow, Neural Magic, OctoML and of course Ultralytics YOLOv5 and many others. Save your spot at https://ultralytics.com/yolo-vision!

English | [简体中文](.github/README_cn.md)

YOLOv5 🚀 is a family of object detection architectures and models pretrained on the COCO dataset, and represents Ultralytics open-source research into future vision AI methods, incorporating lessons learned and best practices evolved over thousands of hours of research and development.

Documentation

See the [YOLOv5 Docs](https://docs.ultralytics.com) for full documentation on training, testing and deployment. ##

Quick Start Examples

Install

Clone repo and install [requirements.txt](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/blob/master/requirements.txt) in a [**Python>=3.7.0**](https://www.python.org/) environment, including [**PyTorch>=1.7**](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/). ```bash git clone https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5 # clone cd yolov5 pip install -r requirements.txt # install ```

Inference

YOLOv5 [PyTorch Hub](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/issues/36) inference. [Models](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/tree/master/models) download automatically from the latest YOLOv5 [release](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases). ```python import torch # Model model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'yolov5s') # or yolov5n - yolov5x6, custom # Images img = 'https://ultralytics.com/images/zidane.jpg' # or file, Path, PIL, OpenCV, numpy, list # Inference results = model(img) # Results results.print() # or .show(), .save(), .crop(), .pandas(), etc. ```

Inference with detect.py

`detect.py` runs inference on a variety of sources, downloading [models](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/tree/master/models) automatically from the latest YOLOv5 [release](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases) and saving results to `runs/detect`. ```bash python detect.py --source 0 # webcam img.jpg # image vid.mp4 # video screen # screenshot path/ # directory 'path/*.jpg' # glob 'https://youtu.be/Zgi9g1ksQHc' # YouTube 'rtsp://example.com/media.mp4' # RTSP, RTMP, HTTP stream ```

Training

The commands below reproduce YOLOv5 [COCO](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/blob/master/data/scripts/get_coco.sh) results. [Models](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/tree/master/models) and [datasets](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/tree/master/data) download automatically from the latest YOLOv5 [release](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases). Training times for YOLOv5n/s/m/l/x are 1/2/4/6/8 days on a V100 GPU ([Multi-GPU](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/issues/475) times faster). Use the largest `--batch-size` possible, or pass `--batch-size -1` for YOLOv5 [AutoBatch](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/pull/5092). Batch sizes shown for V100-16GB. ```bash python train.py --data coco.yaml --cfg yolov5n.yaml --weights '' --batch-size 128 yolov5s 64 yolov5m 40 yolov5l 24 yolov5x 16 ```

Table Notes (click to expand)

- All checkpoints are trained to 300 epochs with default settings. Nano and Small models use [hyp.scratch-low.yaml](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/blob/master/data/hyps/hyp.scratch-low.yaml) hyps, all others use [hyp.scratch-high.yaml](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/blob/master/data/hyps/hyp.scratch-high.yaml).
- **mAP^val** values are for single-model single-scale on [COCO val2017](http://cocodataset.org) dataset.
Reproduce by `python val.py --data coco.yaml --img 640 --conf 0.001 --iou 0.65`
- **Speed** averaged over COCO val images using a [AWS p3.2xlarge](https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/p3/) instance. NMS times (~1 ms/img) not included.

## Classification ⭐ NEW

YOLOv5 [release v6.2](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5/releases) brings support for classification model training, validation, prediction and export! We've made training classifier models super simple. Click below to get started.

Classification Checkpoints (click to expand)

We trained YOLOv5-cls classification models on ImageNet for 90 epochs using a 4xA100 instance, and we trained ResNet and EfficientNet models alongside with the same default training settings to compare. We exported all models to ONNX FP32 for CPU speed tests and to TensorRT FP16 for GPU speed tests. We ran all speed tests on Google [Colab Pro](https://colab.research.google.com/signup) for easy reproducibility.

Classification Usage Examples (click to expand)

### Train
YOLOv5 classification training supports auto-download of MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, CIFAR100, Imagenette, Imagewoof, and ImageNet datasets with the `--data` argument. To start training on MNIST for example use `--data mnist`.

```bash
# Single-GPU
python classify/train.py --model yolov5s-cls.pt --data cifar100 --epochs 5 --img 224 --batch 128

# Multi-GPU DDP
python -m torch.distributed.run --nproc_per_node 4 --master_port 1 classify/train.py --model yolov5s-cls.pt --data imagenet --epochs 5 --img 224 --device 0,1,2,3
```

### Val
Validate YOLOv5m-cls accuracy on ImageNet-1k dataset:
```bash
bash data/scripts/get_imagenet.sh --val # download ImageNet val split (6.3G, 50000 images)
python classify/val.py --weights yolov5m-cls.pt --data ../datasets/imagenet --img 224 # validate
```

### Predict
Use pretrained YOLOv5s-cls.pt to predict bus.jpg:
```bash
python classify/predict.py --weights yolov5s-cls.pt --data data/images/bus.jpg
```
```python
model = torch.hub.load('ultralytics/yolov5', 'custom', 'yolov5s-cls.pt') # load from PyTorch Hub
```

### Export
Export a group of trained YOLOv5s-cls, ResNet and EfficientNet models to ONNX and TensorRT:
```bash
python export.py --weights yolov5s-cls.pt resnet50.pt efficientnet_b0.pt --include onnx engine --img 224
