Usage
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:
from ultralytics import YOLO
# Load the model
model = YOLO('yolov8n.pt') # load a pretrained model
# Perform inference
results = model('image.jpg')
# Print the results
results.print()
