+The [Caltech-101](https://data.caltech.edu/records/mzrjq-6wc02) dataset is a widely used dataset for object recognition tasks, containing around 9,000 images from 101 object categories. The categories were chosen to reflect a variety of real-world objects, and the images themselves were carefully selected and annotated to provide a challenging benchmark for object recognition algorithms.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- The Caltech-101 dataset comprises around 9,000 color images divided into 101 categories.
+- The categories encompass a wide variety of objects, including animals, vehicles, household items, and people.
+- The number of images per category varies, with about 40 to 800 images in each category.
+- Images are of variable sizes, with most images being medium resolution.
+- Caltech-101 is widely used for training and testing in the field of machine learning, particularly for object recognition tasks.
+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+Unlike many other datasets, the Caltech-101 dataset is not formally split into training and testing sets. Users typically create their own splits based on their specific needs.

+The [ImageWoof](https://github.com/fastai/imagenette) dataset is a subset of the ImageNet consisting of 10 classes that are challenging to classify, since they're all dog breeds. It was created as a more difficult task for image classification algorithms to solve, aiming at encouraging development of more advanced models.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- ImageWoof contains images of 10 different dog breeds: Australian terrier, Border terrier, Samoyed, Beagle, Shih-Tzu, English foxhound, Rhodesian ridgeback, Dingo, Golden retriever, and Old English sheepdog.
+- The dataset provides images at various resolutions (full size, 320px, 160px), accommodating for different computational capabilities and research needs.
+- It also includes a version with noisy labels, providing a more realistic scenario where labels might not always be reliable.
+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+The ImageWoof dataset structure is based on the dog breed classes, with each breed having its own directory of images.
+
+## Applications
+
+The ImageWoof dataset is widely used for training and evaluating deep learning models in image classification tasks, especially when it comes to more complex and similar classes. The dataset's challenge lies in the subtle differences between the dog breeds, pushing the limits of model's performance and generalization.
+
+## Usage
+
+To train a CNN model on the ImageWoof dataset for 100 epochs with an image size of 224x224, you can use the following code snippets. For a comprehensive list of available arguments, refer to the model [Training](../../modes/train.md) page.

+        ```
+
+## Dataset Variants
+
+ImageWoof dataset comes in three different sizes to accommodate various research needs and computational capabilities:
+
+1. **Full Size (imagewoof)**: This is the original version of the ImageWoof dataset. It contains full-sized images and is ideal for final training and performance benchmarking.
+
+2. **Medium Size (imagewoof320)**: This version contains images resized to have a maximum edge length of 320 pixels. It's suitable for faster training without significantly sacrificing model performance.
+
+3. **Small Size (imagewoof160)**: This version contains images resized to have a maximum edge length of 160 pixels. It's designed for rapid prototyping and experimentation where training speed is a priority.
+
+To use these variants in your training, simply replace 'imagewoof' in the dataset argument with 'imagewoof320' or 'imagewoof160'. For example:
+
+```python
+# For medium-sized dataset
+model.train(data='imagewoof320', epochs=100, imgsz=224)
+
+# For small-sized dataset
+model.train(data='imagewoof160', epochs=100, imgsz=224)
+```
+
+It's important to note that using smaller images will likely yield lower performance in terms of classification accuracy. However, it's an excellent way to iterate quickly in the early stages of model development and prototyping.

-# 🚧 Page Under Construction ⚒
+# COCO-Seg Dataset
 
-This page is currently under construction!️ 👷Please check back later for updates. 😃🔜
+The [COCO-Seg](https://cocodataset.org/#home) dataset, an extension of the COCO (Common Objects in Context) dataset, is specially designed to aid research in object instance segmentation. It uses the same images as COCO but introduces more detailed segmentation annotations. This dataset is a crucial resource for researchers and developers working on instance segmentation tasks, especially for training YOLO models.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- COCO-Seg retains the original 330K images from COCO.
+- The dataset consists of the same 80 object categories found in the original COCO dataset.
+- Annotations now include more detailed instance segmentation masks for each object in the images.
+- COCO-Seg provides standardized evaluation metrics like mean Average Precision (mAP) for object detection, and mean Average Recall (mAR) for instance segmentation tasks, enabling effective comparison of model performance.
+
+## Dataset Structure
+
+The COCO-Seg dataset is partitioned into three subsets:
+
+1. **Train2017**: This subset contains 118K images for training instance segmentation models.
+2. **Val2017**: This subset includes 5K images used for validation purposes during model training.
+3. **Test2017**: This subset encompasses 20K images used for testing and benchmarking the trained models. Ground truth annotations for this subset are not publicly available, and the results are submitted to the [COCO evaluation server](https://competitions.codalab.org/competitions/5181) for performance evaluation.
+
+## Applications
+
+COCO-Seg is widely used for training and evaluating deep learning models in instance segmentation, such as the YOLO models. The large number of annotated images, the diversity of object categories, and the standardized evaluation metrics make it an indispensable resource for computer vision researchers and practitioners.
+
+## Dataset YAML
+
+A YAML (Yet Another Markup Language) file is used to define the dataset configuration. It contains information about the dataset's paths, classes, and other relevant information. In the case of the COCO-Seg dataset, the `coco.yaml` file is maintained at [https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/datasets/coco.yaml](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics/blob/main/ultralytics/datasets/coco.yaml).

+
+To train a YOLOv8n-seg model on the COCO-Seg dataset for 100 epochs with an image size of 640, you can use the following code snippets. For a comprehensive list of available arguments, refer to the model [Training](../../modes/train.md) page.

+
+# Continuous Integration (CI)
+
+Continuous Integration (CI) is an essential aspect of software development which involves integrating changes and testing them automatically. CI allows us to maintain high-quality code by catching issues early and often in the development process. At Ultralytics, we use various CI tests to ensure the quality and integrity of our codebase.
+
+Here's a brief description of our CI tests:
+
+- **CI:** This is our primary CI test that involves running unit tests, linting checks, and sometimes more comprehensive tests depending on the repository.
+- **Docker Deployment:** This test checks the deployment of the project using Docker to ensure the Dockerfile and related scripts are working correctly.
+- **Broken Links:** This test scans the codebase for any broken or dead links in our markdown or HTML files.
+- **CodeQL:** CodeQL is a tool from GitHub that performs semantic analysis on our code, helping to find potential security vulnerabilities and maintain high-quality code.
+- **PyPi Publishing:** This test checks if the project can be packaged and published to PyPi without any errors.
+
+Below is the table showing the status of these CI tests for our main repositories:

+
+Each badge shows the status of the last run of the corresponding CI test on the `main` branch of the respective repository. If a test fails, the badge will display a "failing" status, and if it passes, it will display a "passing" status.
+
+If you notice a test failing, it would be a great help if you could report it through a GitHub issue in the respective repository.
+
+Remember, a successful CI test does not mean that everything is perfect. It is always recommended to manually review the code before deployment or merging changes.
+
+Happy coding!

+## Overview
+
+This document presents an overview of three closely related object detection models, namely [YOLOv3](https://pjreddie.com/darknet/yolo/), [YOLOv3-Ultralytics](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov3), and [YOLOv3u](https://github.com/ultralytics/ultralytics).
+
+1. **YOLOv3:** This is the third version of the You Only Look Once (YOLO) object detection algorithm. Originally developed by Joseph Redmon, YOLOv3 improved on its predecessors by introducing features such as multiscale predictions and three different sizes of detection kernels.

+2. **YOLOv3-Ultralytics:** This is Ultralytics' implementation of the YOLOv3 model. It reproduces the original YOLOv3 architecture and offers additional functionalities, such as support for more pre-trained models and easier customization options.
+
+3. **YOLOv3u:** This is an updated version of YOLOv3-Ultralytics that incorporates the anchor-free, objectness-free split head used in YOLOv8 models. YOLOv3u maintains the same backbone and neck architecture as YOLOv3 but with the updated detection head from YOLOv8.
+
+## Key Features
+
+- **YOLOv3:** Introduced the use of three different scales for detection, leveraging three different sizes of detection kernels: 13x13, 26x26, and 52x52. This significantly improved detection accuracy for objects of different sizes. Additionally, YOLOv3 added features such as multi-label predictions for each bounding box and a better feature extractor network.
+
+- **YOLOv3-Ultralytics:** Ultralytics' implementation of YOLOv3 provides the same performance as the original model but comes with added support for more pre-trained models, additional training methods, and easier customization options. This makes it more versatile and user-friendly for practical applications.
+
+- **YOLOv3u:** This updated model incorporates the anchor-free, objectness-free split head from YOLOv8. By eliminating the need for pre-defined anchor boxes and objectness scores, this detection head design can improve the model's ability to detect objects of varying sizes and shapes. This makes YOLOv3u more robust and accurate for object detection tasks.
+
+## Supported Tasks
