# YOLOv5
|
|
|
|
## Overview
|
|
|
|
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.

|
## Key Features
|
|
|
|
- **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:** 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:** 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.

## Usage
|
|
|
|
You can use YOLOv5u for object detection tasks using the Ultralytics repository. The following is a sample code snippet showing how to use YOLOv5u model for inference:
|
|
|
|
!!! example ""
|
|
|
|
This example provides simple inference code for YOLOv5. For more options including handling inference results see [Predict](../modes/predict.md) mode. For using YOLOv5 with additional modes see [Train](../modes/train.md), [Val](../modes/val.md) and [Export](../modes/export.md).
|
|
|
|
=== "Python"
|
|
|
|
PyTorch pretrained `*.pt` models as well as configuration `*.yaml` files can be passed to the `YOLO()` class to create a model instance in python:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from ultralytics import YOLO
|
|
|
|
# Load a COCO-pretrained YOLOv5n model
|
|
model = YOLO('yolov5n.pt')
|
|
|
|
# Display model information (optional)
|
|
model.info()
|
|
|
|
# Train the model on the COCO8 example dataset for 100 epochs
|
|
results model.train(data='coco8.yaml', epochs=100, imgsz=640)
|
|
|
|
# Run inference with the YOLOv5n model on the 'bus.jpg' image
|
|
results = model('path/to/bus.jpg')
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
=== "CLI"
|
|
|
|
CLI commands are available to directly run the models:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Load a COCO-pretrained YOLOv5n model and train it on the COCO8 example dataset for 100 epochs
|
|
yolo train model=yolov5n.pt data=coco8.yaml epochs=100 imgsz=640
|
|
|
|
# Load a COCO-pretrained YOLOv5n model and run inference on the 'bus.jpg' image
|
|
yolo predict model=yolov5n.pt source=path/to/bus.jpg
|
|
```
