YOLOv5u is an enhanced version of the [YOLOv5](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5) object detection model from Ultralytics. This iteration incorporates the anchor-free, objectness-free split head that is featured in the [YOLOv8](./yolov8.md) models. Although it maintains the same backbone and neck architecture as YOLOv5, YOLOv5u provides an improved accuracy-speed tradeoff for object detection tasks, making it a robust choice for numerous applications.
YOLOv5u represents an advancement in object detection methodologies. Originating from the foundational architecture of the [YOLOv5](https://github.com/ultralytics/yolov5) model developed by Ultralytics, YOLOv5u integrates the anchor-free, objectness-free split head, a feature previously introduced in the [YOLOv8](./yolov8.md) models. This adaptation refines the model's architecture, leading to an improved accuracy-speed tradeoff in object detection tasks. Given the empirical results and its derived features, YOLOv5u provides an efficient alternative for those seeking robust solutions in both research and practical applications.
- **Anchor-free Split Ultralytics Head:**YOLOv5u replaces the conventional anchor-based detection head with an anchor-free split Ultralytics head, boosting performance in object detection tasks.
- **Anchor-free Split Ultralytics Head:**Traditional object detection models rely on predefined anchor boxes to predict object locations. However, YOLOv5u modernizes this approach. By adopting an anchor-free split Ultralytics head, it ensures a more flexible and adaptive detection mechanism, consequently enhancing the performance in diverse scenarios.
- **Optimized Accuracy-Speed Tradeoff:**By delivering a better balance between accuracy and speed, YOLOv5u is suitable for a diverse range of real-time applications, from autonomous driving to video surveillance.
- **Optimized Accuracy-Speed Tradeoff:**Speed and accuracy often pull in opposite directions. But YOLOv5u challenges this tradeoff. It offers a calibrated balance, ensuring real-time detections without compromising on accuracy. This feature is particularly invaluable for applications that demand swift responses, such as autonomous vehicles, robotics, and real-time video analytics.
- **Variety of Pre-trained Models:**YOLOv5u includes numerous pre-trained models for tasks like Inference, Validation, and Training, providing the flexibility to tackle various object detection challenges.
- **Variety of Pre-trained Models:**Understanding that different tasks require different toolsets, YOLOv5u provides a plethora of pre-trained models. Whether you're focusing on Inference, Validation, or Training, there's a tailor-made model awaiting you. This variety ensures you're not just using a one-size-fits-all solution, but a model specifically fine-tuned for your unique challenge.

You can use YOLOv8 for object detection tasks using the Ultralytics pip package. The following is a sample code snippet showing how to use YOLOv8 models for inference:
You can use YOLOv8 for object detection tasks using the Ultralytics pip package. The following is a sample code snippet showing how to use YOLOv8 models for inference:
```python
!!! example ""
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load the model
This example provides simple inference code for YOLOv8. For more options including handling inference results see [Predict](../modes/predict.md) mode. For using YOLOv8 with additional modes see [Train](../modes/train.md), [Val](../modes/val.md) and [Export](../modes/export.md).
model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') # load a pretrained model
# Perform inference
=== "Python"
results = model('image.jpg')
# Print the results
PyTorch pretrained `*.pt` models as well as configuration `*.yaml` files can be passed to the `YOLO()` class to create a model instance in python:
results.print()
```
## Citation
```python
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load a COCO-pretrained YOLOv8n model
model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt')
# Display model information (optional)
model.info()
# Train the model on the COCO8 example dataset for 100 epochs
