Both the Ultralytics YOLO command-line and python interfaces are simply a high-level abstraction on the base engine executors. Let's take a look at the Trainer engine.
## BaseTrainer
BaseTrainer contains the generic boilerplate training routine. It can be customized for any task based over overidding the required functions or operations as long the as correct formats are followed. For example you can support your own custom model and dataloder by just overriding these functions:
* `get_model(cfg, weights)` - The function that builds a the model to be trained
* `get_dataloder()` - The function that builds the dataloder
More details and source code can be found in [`BaseTrainer` Reference](../reference/base_trainer.md)
## DetectionTrainer
Here's how you can use the YOLOv8 `DetectionTrainer` and customize it.
```python
from Ultrlaytics.yolo.v8 import DetectionTrainer
trainer = DetectionTrainer(overrides={...})
trainer.train()
trained_model = trainer.best # get best model
```
### Customizing the DetectionTrainer
Let's customize the trainer **to train a custom detection model** that is not supported directly. You can do this by simply overloading the existing the `get_model` functionality:
```python
from Ultrlaytics.yolo.v8 import DetectionTrainer
class CustomTrainer(DetectionTrainer):
def get_model(self, cfg, weights):
...
trainer = CustomTrainer(overrides={...})
trainer.train()
```
You now realize that you need to customize the trainer further to:
* Customize the `loss function`.
* Add `callback` that uploads model to your google drive after every 10 `epochs`
Here's how you can do it:
```python
from Ultrlaytics.yolo.v8 import DetectionTrainer
class CustomTrainer(DetectionTrainer):
def get_model(self, cfg, weights):
...
def criterion(self, preds, batch):
# get ground truth
imgs = batch["imgs"]
bboxes = batch["bboxes"]
...
return loss, loss_items # see Reference-> Trainer for details on the expected format
# callback to upload model weights
def log_model(trainer):
last_weight_path = trainer.last
...
trainer = CustomTrainer(overrides={...})
trainer.add_callback("on_train_epoch_end", log_model) # Adds to existing callback
trainer.train()
```
To know more about Callback triggering events and entry point, checkout our Callbacks guide # TODO
## Other engine components
There are other componenets that can be customized similarly like `Validators` and `Predictiors`

### Customizing Tasks with Trainers
### Using Trainers
`YOLO` model class is a high-level wrapper on the Trainer classes. Each YOLO task has its own trainer that inherits from `BaseTrainer`.
You can easily cusotmize Trainers to support custom tasks or explore R&D ideas.

trainer = yolo.DetectionTrainer(data=..., epochs=1, device="1,2,3,4") # DDP

trainer.train()
