[Ultralytics YOLOv8](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics), developed by [Ultralytics](https://ultralytics.com),
is a cutting-edge, state-of-the-art (SOTA) model that builds upon the success of previous YOLO versions and introduces
new features and improvements to further boost performance and flexibility. YOLOv8 is designed to be fast, accurate, and
easy to use, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of object detection, image segmentation and image
classification tasks.

## <div align="center">Documentation</div>

See below for a quickstart installation and usage example, and see the [YOLOv8 Docs](https://docs.ultralytics.com) for
full documentation on training, validation, prediction and deployment.

<details open>
<summary>Install</summary>

Pip install the ultralytics package including
all [requirements.txt](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/requirements.txt) in a
[**Python>=3.7**](https://www.python.org/) environment with
[**PyTorch>=1.7**](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/).

```bash
pip install ultralytics
```

</details>

<details open>
<summary>Usage</summary>

#### CLI

YOLOv8 may be used directly in the Command Line Interface (CLI) with a `yolo` command:

```bash
yolo predict model=yolov8n.pt source="https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg"
```

`yolo` can be used for a variety of tasks and modes and accepts additional arguments, i.e. `imgsz=640`. See the YOLOv8
[CLI Docs](https://docs.ultralytics.com/usage/cli) for examples.

#### Python

YOLOv8 may also be used directly in a Python environment, and accepts the
same [arguments](https://docs.ultralytics.com/usage/cfg/) as in the CLI example above:

```python
from ultralytics import YOLO

# Load a model
model = YOLO("yolov8n.yaml")  # build a new model from scratch
model = YOLO("yolov8n.pt")  # load a pretrained model (recommended for training)

# Use the model
model.train(data="coco128.yaml", epochs=3)  # train the model
metrics = model.val()  # evaluate model performance on the validation set
results = model("https://ultralytics.com/images/bus.jpg")  # predict on an image
success = model.export(format="onnx")  # export the model to ONNX format
```

[Models](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/tree/main/ultralytics/models) download automatically from the latest
Ultralytics [release](https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/releases). See
YOLOv8 [Python Docs](https://docs.ultralytics.com/usage/python) for more examples.

#### Model Architectures

⭐ **NEW** YOLOv5u anchor free models are now available.

All supported model architectures can be found in the [Models](./ultralytics/models/) section.

#### Known Issues / TODOs

We are still working on several parts of YOLOv8! We aim to have these completed soon to bring the YOLOv8 feature set up
to par with YOLOv5, including export and inference to all the same formats. We are also writing a YOLOv8 paper which we
will submit to [arxiv.org](https://arxiv.org) once complete.

- [x] TensorFlow exports
- [x] DDP resume
- [ ] [arxiv.org](https://arxiv.org) paper

## <div align="center">Models</div>

All YOLOv8 pretrained models are available here. Detection and Segmentation models are pretrained on the COCO dataset,
while Classification models are pretrained on the ImageNet dataset.

[Models](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/tree/main/ultralytics/models) download automatically from the latest
Ultralytics [release](https://github.com/ultralytics/assets/releases) on first use.
